• Establishment and Genomic Validation of Novel Patient-Derived Xenograft Models for Drug Discovery in Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor

  This dataset contains targeted next-generation sequencing data generated with the Illumina TruSight Oncology 500 (TSO500) assay from six gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) and matched patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models established at Fox Chase Cancer Center (Philadelphia, PA). GIST are most commonly driven by activating mutations in KIT or PDGFRA, and this study focused on KIT-mutant tumors. All PDXs were derived from metastatic patient tumors previously treated with one or more tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). PDXs were maintained through series of passages and represents in vivo models of differential TKI sensitivity. The dataset represents a detailed comparison of mutational profiles between primary tumors and corresponding PDXs across passages, enabling studies of genomic stability, resistance mechanisms, and the evaluation of novel therapeutic strategies in GIST.

• GWAS in an Amerindian Ancestry Population Reveals Novel Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Risk Loci and the Role of European Admixture

  The study comprises SLE patients recruited from specialist rheumatology clinics from the United States, Mexico, Argentina, Chile and Peru. Two strategies were used to enrich samples for Native American ancestry: a. previously genotyped Hispanic and Latin American and US Native American individuals were selected according to their ancestry based on 253 ancestry informative markers as part of the Lupus Large Association 2 Study. The approximate 35% of the samples were primarily of European and Native American admixture was selected; b. the recruitment of patients took place primarily in countries with little African admixture. All samples were genotyped on the HumanOmni1-Quad BeadChip using manifest H at the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation. The Illumina clustering algorithm with GenomeStudio v2011.1 was used.

• Transcriptomics of Liver and PBMCs in Alcohol-Associated Liver Disease

  This study was designed to characterize the transcriptome of alcohol-associated hepatitis using RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) technology for both liver tissue biopsies and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) extracted from blood samples, in order to identify expressed genes that are markers of the disease. To distinguish genes that differentiate alcohol-associated hepatitis from other inflammatory liver diseases, we compared the RNA-seq data generated from participants with alcohol-associated hepatitis, alcohol-associated cirrhosis, chronic hepatitis C infection, non-alcohol-associated fatty liver disease, and healthy controls. We utilized computational approaches to demonstrate that gene expression data generated from either liver tissue or blood samples can be used to identify a small set of gene biomarkers to distinguish between these liver diseases. The raw RNA-seq data will be available through dbGaP.

• Somatic Mutations in Epilepsy: Whole Genome Sequence Analysis of Single Neurons

  Low-coverage whole-genome sequencing was performed on single-cells from resected brain tissues obtained from an individual with hemimegalencephaly (HMG) along with a somatic copy number variant (sCNV) of chromosome 1q in order to characterize the sCNV at the single cell level. Single neuronal nuclei and non-neuronal nuclei were isolated by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) using NeuN immunoreactivity to identify neurons. 46 neurons and 30 non-neuronal cells, as well as a batch of 10 and a batch of 100 cells from each group, were genome amplified using multiple displacement amplification (MDA) and sequenced on an Illumina HiSeq 2000 sequencer. Thirty-two samples were multiplexed into each HiSeq lane for single-end 50 bp runs, obtaining ~5 million pass-filter reads per sample.

• A collection of 142 samples used to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of small-scale variation detection in exome-capture data with a particular focus on indel detection.

  The dataset includes exome sequencing data and 704 Sanger sequencing validations for the 142 samples. The 704 Sanger sequencing validations are comprised of 416 variants and 288 sites known to be negative, including 293 indels and 247 negative indel sites. DNA libraries were prepared from genomic DNA using the Illumina TruSeq sample preparation kit. DNA was fragmented using Covaris technology and the libraries were prepared without gel size selection. Target enrichment was performed in pools of six libraries using the Illumina TruSeq Exome Enrichment kit. The captured DNA libraries were PCR amplified using the supplied paired-end PCR primers. Sequencing was performed with an Illumina HiSeq2000 (v3 flow cell, one pool per lane) generating 2x101-bp reads. Technology – Illumina HiSeq 2000

• Microbiome

  16S-sequencing: All stool samples were processed according to the standards of the Flemish Gut Flora Project (Falony et al., 2016). All samples were processed together and sequenced in as a single batch (dual index run DI23R22) which included positive controls (PC, identical stool sample), negative controls (PCR-mix) and ‘blanks’ or negative controls of the extraction (no sample). In addition, a Runella strain (RS) was included to check for potential cross-contamination, as this strain is not present in human samples. The V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene was amplified with the primer pair 515F and 806R (GTGYCAGCMGCCGCGGTAA and GGACTACNVGGGTWTCTAAT, resp.), modified to contain a barcode sequence between each primer and the Illumina adaptor sequences to produce dual- barcoded libraries (Tito et al., 2019). Sequencing was performed on the Illumina MiSeq. Sequences were processed using the LotuS (Hildebrand et al., 2014) and DADA2 pipeline (Callahan et al., 2016) using RDP 16 as the reference taxonomy.

• Transcriptomic predictors of survival for palbociclib + endocrine therapy vs. capecitabine in aromatase inhibitor-resistant breast cancer from GEICAM/2013-02 PEARL

  We examined transcriptomic tumor features associated with survival from GEICAM/2013-02 PEARL, a phase III trial of palbociclib + ET vs. capecitabine in aromatase inhibitor-resistant HR+/HER2- MBC. PAM50 intrinsic subtype predicted PFS differences between palbociclib + ET and capecitabine, and lower B-cell-associated gene expression predicted longer OS with palbociclib + ET vs. capecitabine. These features may help identify HR+/HER2- tumors resistant to further ET-based treatment with CDK4/6 inhibitors.

• Lung cancer organoids addition

  Organoids are self-organizing 3D structures grown from stem cells that recapitulate essential aspects of organ structure and function. Here we describe a method to establish long-term culture conditions of human airway epithelial organoids that contain all major cell populations and allow personalized human disease modelling. We collected macroscopically inconspicuous lung tissue from non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients undergoing medically indicated surgery and isolated epithelial cells to engineer 3D organoids. We exploit the potential to derive sub-clones from AOs to demonstrate the feasibility of CRISPR gene editing. Finally, we show that AOs readily allow modelling of viral infections such as RSV and for the first time demonstrate the possibility to study neutrophil-epithelium interaction in an organoid model. Taken together, we anticipate that human AOs will find broad applications in the study of adult human airway epithelium in health and disease.

• Exome sequencing of blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasms

  Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) is a rare and aggressive haematological malignancy derived from precursors of plasmacytoid dendritic cells. Due to the rarity of BPDCNs our knowledge of their molecular pathogenesis was until recently confined to observations describing reccurent chromosomal deletions involving chromosomes 5q, 12p, 13q, 6q, 15q and 9. A recent publication went on to delineate the common deleted regions using aCGH and demonstrated that these centred around known tumour suppressor genes including CDKN2A/B (9p21.3), RB1 (12p13.2-14.3), CDKN1B (13q11-q12) and IKZF1 (7p12.2). These mutations are found recurrently in several different cancers and in most cases are thought to be involved in tumour progression rather than initiation. However, the well-defined nature and cellular ontogeny of these neoplasms suggests strongly that they share one or a few characteristic mutations as has been demonstrated for other uncommon but well-defined neoplasms such as Hairy Cell Leukemia (BRAF) and ovarian Granulosa Cell tumours (FOXL2).

• Undifferentiated sarcomas develop through distinct evolutionary pathways

  Undifferentiated sarcomas (USARC) of adults are diverse, rare and aggressive soft tissue cancers. Recent efforts have confirmed that USARC exhibit one of the highest burdens of structural aberrations across human cancer. Here, we sought to unravel the genomic basis of this structural complexity by integrating whole genome sequencing, ploidy analysis and methylation profiling of 53 USARC. We identified whole genome doubling as a prevalent and pernicious force in USARC tumourigenesis. Deconvolution of the complex copy number and rearrangement landscapes show distinct signatures associated with chromothripsis, early-haploidy, and successive whole-genome-doubling events, suggesting four divergent models of sarcoma development. We show similar distinct evolutionary tumourigenic pathways in different sarcoma subtypes from the Cancer Genome Atlas. Thirteen percent of tumours exhibited a hypermutator phenotype, opening new avenues for clinical management such as immunotherapy, whilst the period prior to and between genome doubling events may represent clinically relevant interventional points in USARC.
