The dataset consists of sequenced cell free DNA (cfDNA) samples from colorectal cancer patients. The samples were sequenced on an Illumina MiSeq machine using a custom amplicon sequencing approach. These amplicons were designed to cover the most common mutation hotspots in colorectal cancer. The data include 138 cfDNA samples from 34 different patients. For each patient several samples are available derived from blood drawn at different time points during treatment. In addition the data include samples from 22 histology slides and 30 samples derived from HT29/HCT116 cell lines that were used as controls.
In order to characterize the T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire of DQ2.5-hor-3-specific T cells, we performed high-throughput DNA sequencing of rearranged TCR-α and TCR-β genes of the single HLA-DQ2.5:DQ2.5-hor-3- tetramer binding CD4+ T cells isolated from biopsies of celiac disease patients. We also sequenced the TCR of the T-cell clones (TCCs) that were generated by cloning by limited dilution and antigen-free expansion of HLA-DQ2.5:DQ2.5-hor-3-tetramer binding CD4+ T cells from biopsies of celiac disease patients.
This study consists of over 200 data files from cfDNA and germline DNA from 69 patients and 32 healthy normal volunteers discussed in this publication.
We analyzed the cell free DNA methylomes using 67 plasma samples from patients with mCRPC prostate cancer in the VPC project. Methylation was profiled using the methylated DNA immunoprecipitation coupled to next generation sequencing (MeDIP) technology.
We analyzed the cell free DNA methylomes using 72 plasma samples from patients with mCRPC prostate cancer in the VPC project for validation. Methylation was profiled using the methylated DNA immunoprecipitation coupled to next generation sequencing (MeDIP) technology. Files from multiple lanes exists per sample.
Clinical & biomarker data from IMagyn050: treatment arm, treatment approach, outcome of surgery, ECOG PS, PD-L1 status, race, age, disease stage, progression free survival (investigator assessed), overall survival, histology, tumor mutation burden and status, genomic loss of heterozygosity, microsatellite status, BRCA1/2 mutation status, tissue of origin. Mutation status based on FoundationOne NGS for the following genes is also being provided: TP53, BRCA1, CCNE1, MYC, NF1, PIK3CA, RAD21, TERC, PRKCI, KRAS, RB1, BRCA2, ARID1A, AKT2, PTEN, KDM5A, NOTCH3, FGF12, ERBB2, CDK12, EMSY, WHSC1L1, BCL2L1, CDKN2A, GNAS, ARFRP1, ZNF217, SOX2, CCND2, FGF6, FGF23, LYN, MUTYH, AURKA, FGFR1, MCL1, MLL2, MYCL1, ZNF703, BRAF, MAP2K4, CREBBP, TSC2
These are aligned paired-end reads from Illumina NovaSeq 6000 whole-genome sequencing of 4 cfDNA samples extracted from blood plasma (plasma-Seq). Three samples from patients with breast cancer, prostate cancer, or colorectal cancer and one sample from a healthy individual were aligned to GRCh38 (GCA_000001405.15_GRCh38_no_alt_plus_hs38d1_analysis_set). The observed GC bias is different in each of these cfDNA samples which leads to different average GC content per sample. This bias is corrected using the GCparagon commandline tool.
Adapted from manuscript in review: Nearly all prostate cancer deaths are from metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) but there have been few whole genome sequencing (WGS) studies of this disease state. We performed linked-read WGS on 23 mCRPC biopsy specimens and analyzed cell-free DNA sequencing data from 86 patients with mCRPC. In addition to frequent rearrangements affecting known prostate cancer genes, we observed complex rearrangements of the AR locus in most cases. These include highly recurrent tandem duplications involving an upstream enhancer of AR. A subset of cases also displayed a genome-wide tandem duplicator phenotype associated with CDK12 inactivation. Our findings highlight the complex genomic structure of mCRPC nominate new alterations that may inform prostate cancer treatment, and suggest that additional recurrent events in the noncoding mCRPC genome remain to be discovered.
Neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC) is an aggressive variant of prostate cancer that may develop de novo or as a mechanism of treatment resistance. N-myc is capable of driving NEPC progression. Alisertib inhibits the interaction between N-myc and its stabilizing factor Aurora-A, inhibiting N-myc signaling, and suppressing tumor growth. In this single arm, multi-institutional open label phase 2 clinical trial of alisertib, sixty men were treated with alisertib 50mg twice daily for 7 days every 21-days. Eligibility included metastatic prostate cancer and at least one: small cell neuroendocrine morphology; ≥50% neuroendocrine marker expression; new liver metastases without PSA progression; elevated serum neuroendocrine markers. The primary endpoint was six-month radiographic progression free survival. Pre-treatment biopsies were evaluated by whole exome and RNA-seq.
From 2012-2021, Yale University was home to one of four national centers created by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to study the genetics of rare inherited diseases. Researchers at Yale University, University of Washington, the Broad Institute and a center operated jointly by Baylor University and Johns Hopkins University analyzed the genomes of thousands of patients who suffer from more than 6,000 rare Mendelian disorders affecting more than 25 million individuals in United States. The Centers for Mendelian Genomics (CMG) applied next-generation sequencing and computational approaches to discover the genes and variants that underlie Mendelian disorders. The discovery of new genes that cause Mendelian conditions expanded our understanding about their biology to facilitate their diagnosis, and potentially indicate new treatments. The CMG provided free exome sequencing and analysis to collaborating investigators for qualified phenotypes.
