• TRACERx 100: RNAseq data from the first 100 TRACERx tumours

  TRACERx (TRAcking Cancer Evolution through therapy (Rx)) is a prospective cohort study designed to investigate intratumor heterogeneity (ITH) in relation to clinical outcome, and to determine the clonal nature of driver events and evolutionary processes in early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This study looks at the multi-region RNAseq data from the TRACERx100 cohort with high enough quality RNA available. There is RNAseq data from 164 regions (64 patients).

• Arcagen – thoracic malignancies

  Arcagen is an EORTC/SPECTA pan-European project that aims to recruit 1000 rare cancer patients from different tumour domains of EURACAN. This study collected samples from advanced or metastatic rare cancer from patients older than 12, and analysed them using Foundation Medicine next-generation sequencing (NGS) panels (FoundationOne CDx for FFPE samples or FoundationOne Liquid CDx for blood samples). Here we are submitting the dataset that contain NGS files from rare thoracic malignancies (n=102)

• RNA sequencing of serial samples from patients enrolled in the NA-PHER2 trial

  Improved outcomes in HER2+ breast cancer have resulted from chemotherapy and anti-HER2 therapies. However, HER2+ER+ cancers exhibit lower response rates. The NA-PHER2 trial investigated chemo-free preoperative HER2 and CDK4/6 blockade with or without endocrine therapy in HER2+ER+ breast cancer. Through RNA sequencing and tumour infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) assessment in serial biopsies we identified predictive biomarkers of pCR, Day 14 Ki67 response, and unveiled treatment-induced molecular changes.

• Panel sequencing of endocrine-resistant breast cancer

  Patients with endocrine-resistant breast cancer in Stockholm Sweden. DNA obtained from patients primary and relapse tumors, and tumor-free lymph nodes used as germline control. DNA was extracted from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue and sequenced by 370-gene panel-based sequencing with Kapa HyperPlus library preparation and Twist Bioscience hybrid capture. Custom bait sets (panels) from Twist Bioscience. Paired end 2x150 bp using NovaSeq X. The data is presented as fastq-files.

• Stratton__WGS___RCC___Japan

  The Stratton team uses DNA sequencing for somatic mutations to advance understanding of the causes of cancer. In particular, the investigation of “mutational signatures”, which report the mutational processes operative over the lifetime of each individual, to understand whether they are generated by endogenous or exogenous exposures and the extent to which these vary between human populations. Our work brings together global cancer epidemiology and genomics and is particularly characterised by large-scale multinational studies.

• Genomic study of an AT-AML

  Ataxia Telangiectasia (A-T) is caused by biallelic mutations in ATM and confers predisposition to cancer, with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) being rarely observed. We investigated an AML arising in an A-T patient for secondary genetic events by performing whole exome sequencing of serial samples over the disease course. AML samples were compared to a reference "germline" sample from a much earlier time point. Goldgraben et al 2020, Pediatric Blood & Cancer

• Complete Genomics Deep Whole-Genome Sequencing of Circulating Tumor Cells from a Patient with Metastatic Breast Cancer

  Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are considered to be informative non-invasive biopsy for the early detection, diagnosis or therapy guidance of cancer. CTCs also contain most of the heterogeneity found across multiple metastatic sites. In this study, we combine recently improved CTC isolation methods, resulting in almost pure CTCs, with advanced whole genome sequencing (WGS) based on Long Fragment Read (LFR) technology to demonstrate, for the first time, the research and clinical utility of an accurate, comprehensive, phased, and quantitative genomic analysis of CTCs. In particular, genomes of 34 CTCs, collected at two different time points from a patient whose metastatic breast cancer ultimately became resistant to standard treatments, were analyzed as 3072 barcoded sub-genomic compartments of long DNA. An average read coverage of 23X per cell enabled the high-resolution detection of somatic variants, cancer copy number variations (CNVs) and structural variants, including 133 CNVs shorter than 1Mb and an early chromothripsis-like event.

• Comprehensive assay for the molecular profiling of cancer by target enrichment from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded specimens

  Tumor molecular profiling is becoming a standard of care for patients with cancer, but the optimal platform for cancer sequencing remains undetermined. We established a comprehensive assay, the Todai OncoPanel (TOP), which consists of DNA and RNA hybridization capture-based next-generation sequencing panels. A novel method for target enrichment, named the junction capture method, was developed for the RNA panel to accurately and cost-effectively detect 365 fusion genes as well as aberrantly spliced transcripts. The TOP RNA panel can also measure the expression profiles of an additional 109 genes. The TOP DNA panel was developed to detect single nucleotide variants and insertions/deletions for 464 genes, to calculate tumor mutation burden and microsatellite instability status, and to infer chromosomal copy number. Clinically relevant somatic mutations were identified in 32.2% (59/183) of patients by prospective TOP testing, signifying the clinical utility of TOP for providing personalized medicine to cancer patients.

• White blood cell and cell-free DNA analyses for detection of residual disease in gastric cancer

  Liquid biopsies are providing new opportunities for detection of residual disease in cell-free DNA (cfDNA) after surgery but may be confounded through identification of alterations arising from clonal hematopoiesis. Here, we identify circulating tumor-derived DNA alterations (ctDNA) through ultrasensitive targeted sequencing analyses of matched cfDNA and white blood cells from the same patient. We apply this approach to analyze samples from patients in the CRITICS trial, a phase III randomized controlled study of perioperative chemotherapy in patients with operable gastric cancer. After filtering alterations derived from matched white-blood cells, the presence of ctDNA predicts recurrence when analyzed within nine weeks after preoperative treatment and after surgery in patients eligible for multimodal treatment. These analyses provide a facile method for distinguishing ctDNA from other cfDNA alterations and highlight the utility of ctDNA as a predictive biomarker of patient outcome to perioperative cancer therapy and surgical resection in patients with gastric cancer.

• Divergence between high metastatic tumor burden and low circulating tumor DNA concentration in metastasized breast cancer

  Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) was reported to represent a highly sensitive biomarker of metastatic cancer disease directly reflecting tumor burden and dynamics. Here we investigated the role of ctDNA in patients with metastatic breast cancer. In an index patient with more than 100,000 circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in serial blood analyses, whole genome, exome, or targeted deep sequencing of the primary tumor, metastases, and 551 CTCs were consistent with a genetically homogeneous cancer. However, the allele fractions (AFs) of ctDNA were only 2-3% in each analysis, which did neither reflect the tumor burden nor the dynamics of this progressive disease by far. Indeed, plasma analyses of 71 further patients demonstrated highly variable AFs of mutant fragments, which frequently did not correspond to the tumor burden. These results provide insights into mechanisms involved in CTC and ctDNA release into the circulation and have important implications for diagnostic tests based on liquid biopsies.
