• Whole Genome Association Study of Visceral Adiposity in the Health Aging and Body Composition (Health ABC) Study

  The Health Aging and Body Composition (Health ABC) Study is a NIA-sponsored cohort study of the factors that contribute to incident disability and the decline in function of healthier older persons, with a particular emphasis on changes in body composition in old age. Between 4/15/97 and 6/5/98 the Health ABC study has recruited 3,075 70-79 year old community-dwelling adults (41% African-American), who were initially free of mobility and activities of daily living disability. The key components of Health ABC include a baseline exam, annual follow-up clinical exams, and phone contacts every 6 months to identify major health events and document functional status between clinic visits. The core yearly examination for HEALTH ABC includes measurement of body composition by dual energy x-ray absorptio-metry (DXA), walking ability, strength, an interview that includes self-report of limitations, and a medication survey, weight. At baseline, visceral adiposity was measured by computerized tomography (CT). Provision has been made for banking of blood specimens and extracted DNA (HealthABC repository). The overall goal of this project is to identify genetic determinants of visceral adiposity. Genetic samples from 2932 unrelated participants were evaluated with a genome-wide scan.

• Childhood Cancer Data Initiative (CCDI): Pediatric In Vivo Testing Program –Sarcoma, Kidney, and Liver Cancers

  The goal was to complete whole exome sequencing (WES) and RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) on patient derived xenograft samples. Cancer in children is rare with approximately 15,700 new cases diagnosed annually in children 21 years or younger in the U.S. Through use of multimodality therapy (surgery, radiation therapy, and aggressive chemotherapy), 70% of patients will be 'cured' of their disease, and 5-year Event-Free Survival (EFS) exceeds 80%. Consequently, the number of patients that can be enrolled in phase I/II clinical trials is small, and most patients will have been extensively treated, hence drug/radiation resistant. Thus, preclinical studies that accurately translate into effective clinical therapy are an essential component of pediatric drug development. Our group has contributed to studies in the Pediatric Preclinical Testing Program (PPTP) and Pediatric Preclinical Testing Consortium (PPTC) that have led to clinical studies through Children's Oncology Group (COG). Of importance, we have developed and characterized over 330 Patient Derived Xenografts (PDX), developed from tumors both at diagnosis and relapse, that can be used to facilitate pediatric drug development as directed by FDA under the Research to Accelerate Cures and Equity for Children Act (RACE for Children Act).

• Microbiomic and immunogenic biomarkers of adjuvant chemotherapy efficacy in stage III colorectal cancer

  The standard treatment for stage III colorectal cancer (CRC) is surgery, followed by adjuvant chemotherapy (AC). However, the efficacy of AC is limited, and approximately 30% of patients experience recurrence. Therefore, easily assessable molecular biomarkers that can predict response to AC are needed. Here, we aimed to identify predictive biomarkers of response to AC using tumor transcriptomic data. Tumor specimens from 253 patients who underwent surgery for stage III CRC between 1997 and 2019 were analyzed using RNA sequencing. Transcriptional subtyping and analyses of gut microbiome, immune cell fractions, and T-cell receptor (TCR) were performed to identify factors associated with recurrence-free survival (RFS) in patients treated with or without AC. Of 253 patients, 118 (46.6%) received AC. Twenty phyla and 799 species of the microbiomes were identified, among which Fusobacteria were identified in 247 patients (97.6%). Multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression analysis of patients who received AC showed that intratumoral Fusobacterium and M1 macrophage abundance and diversity of TCR alpha and delta (TRAD) were independently associated with RFS. Fusobacterium and M1 macrophage abundance, and TRAD diversity were associated with the response to AC, suggesting that these factors could serve as biomarkers for personalized treatment in stage III CRC.

• WGS of 32 paired SRCC samples

  Signet-ring cell carcinoma (SRCC) has specific epidemiology and oncogenesis in gastric cancer, however with no systematical investigation for prognostic genomic features. We systematically investigated the clinical characteristics of 1,868 Chinese gastric cancer patients, and found that signet-ring cell content was significantly related to multiple clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes. Next, we performed whole genome sequencing for 32 SRCC patients with > 80% signet-ring cells in tumor, and identified frequent5 CLDN18-ARHGAP26/6 fusion (25%). With additional 797 patients for validation, we notice that prevalence of CLDN18-ARHGAP26/6 fusion is positively associated with signet-ring cell content (P = 4.1 x 10 -9 ), younger age at diagnosis (P = 4.2 x 10 -10 ), female/male ratio (P = 1.7 x 10 -9 ), and advanced TNM stage (P = 1.7 x 10 -5 ). Importantly, patients with CLDN18-ARHGAP26/6 fusion had a worse survival outcomes (P = 0.03), and got no benefit0 from platinum/fluoropyrimidines based chemotherapy (P = 0.92) compared to fusion-free patients (P = 0.001), which is consistent with the fact of oxaliplatin/fluoropyrimidine resistance acquired in CLDN18-ARHGAP26 introduced gastric cancer cell lines. Overall, this study provides new insights into the clinical and genomic features of SRCC, and highlights the importance of frequent CLDN18-ARHGAP26/6 fusions in chemotherapy response for SRCC.

• Clinical outcomes and immune correlates of response to nivolumab plus chemoradiotherapy in women with locally-advanced cervical cancer – NiCOL study

  Concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CRT) with blockade of the PD-1 pathway may enhance immune-mediated tumor control through increased phagocytosis, cell death, and antigen presentation. The NiCOL phase 1 trial was designed to determine safety, tolerance, and immune correlates of response to the PD-1 blocking antibody, nivolumab, with and following concurrent CRT in 16 women with locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC). Three patients experienced grade 3 dose-limiting toxicities. The overall response rate was 93.8% [95%CI: 69.8%-99.8%] with a 2-year PFS of 75% [95% CI: 56.5%-99.5%]. Compared to patients with progressive disease (PD), progression-free (PF) subjects showed a brisker stromal immune infiltrate, higher proximity of tumor-infiltrating CD3+ T cells to PD-L1+ tumor cells and of Foxp3+ T cells to proliferating CD11c+ myeloid cells. PF had higher baseline levels of PD-1 on EMRA CD4+ T cells and ICOS-L on tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) vs PD, which instead displayed enhanced PD-L1 expression on TAMs and higher, circulating frequencies of proliferating Tregs at baseline. Concomitant nivolumab plus definitive CRT is safe and associated with encouraging PFS rates. Further validation in the subset of LACC displaying pre-existing, adaptive immune activation is warranted.

• ChIP-seq of plasma cell-free nucleosomes identifies gene expression programs of the cells-of-origin

  Cell-free DNA in human plasma provides access to molecular information about the pathological processes in the organs or tumors from which it originates. These DNA fragments are derived from fragmented chromatin in dying cells, and retain some of the cell of origin histone modifications. Here, we apply chromatin immunoprecipitation of cell-free nucleosomes carrying active chromatin modifications followed by sequencing (cfChIP-seq) to 268 human samples. In healthy donors, we identified bone marrow megakaryocytes, but not erythroblasts, as major contributors to the cfDNA pool. In patients with a range of liver diseases, we show that we can identify pathology-related changes in hepatocyte transcriptional programs. In metastatic colorectal carcinoma patients, we detected clinically relevant, and patient-specific information, including transcriptionally active HER2 amplifications. Altogether, cfChIP-seq using low sequencing depth, provides systemic and genome-wide information, can inform diagnosis, and facilitate interrogation of physiological and pathological processes using blood samples.

• Multimodal Epigenetic Sequencing Analysis (MESA) of Cell-free DNA for Non-invasive Cancer Detection

  Multimodal characterization of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in the blood can enable the sensitive and non-invasive detection of human cancers but remains technically challenging and costly. Here, we developed Multimodal Epigenetic Sequencing Analysis (MESA), a flexible and sensitive method of capturing and integrating multimodal epigenetic information of cfDNA using a single experimental assay, i.e., non-disruptive bisulfite-free methylation sequencing, such as Enzymatic Methyl-seq (EM-seq) and TET-assisted pyridine borane sequencing (TAPS). MESA can simultaneously infer cfDNA methylation, nucleosome occupancy, nucleosome fuzziness, and fragmentation profile for regions surrounding the promoters and polyadenylation sites (PASs). MESA’s integrated analysis of multimodal epigenetic features significantly improved the performance of cancer detection models compared to the usage of any single modality alone. MESA captures additional and highly complementary epigenetic information from cfDNA without additional experimental assays, highlighting the importance and clinical prospect of using multimodal epigenetic features for non-invasive cancer detection
