• Identification_of_drug_resistance_genes_in_cancer_cell_lines_by_insertional_mutagenesis

  Our aim is to identify genes involved in resistance to anti-cancer therapies. In order to do this we have taken advantage of a lentiviral vector (LV)-based insertional mutagen to mutagenize cancer cell lines. LV-transduced cell lines were then treated with anti-cancer therapies and the emergence of resistant clones scored. DNA from pools of resistant clones was collected, subjected to custom capture by baits designed against the LV sequence, and then sequenced to identify the LV-genomic junction. We hope that the identification of recurrently targeted genes in resistant cell population will allow us to identify genes that mediate drug resistance.

• Genomics_of_acral_lentiginous_melanoma___RNAseq

  Melanoma is the most aggressive type of skin cancer, causing about 75% of dermatological cancer deaths. Acral lentiginous melanoma (ALM) is the most common subtype of melanoma in admixed Latin American populations, but very few tumour genomes and exomes, all from European-descent individuals, have been analysed across several studies. Because of this, the genomic landscape of ALM is mostly unknown. Our aim in this project is to define this landscape and identify driver somatic alterations by whole-exome sequencing a collection of ALM germline/tumour paired FFPE samples from the National Cancer Institute of Mexico.

• Identification of hypermutation and defective mismatch repair in ctDNA from metastatic prostate cancer

  DNA mismatch repair defects (MMRd) and tumor hypermutation are rare and under-characterized in metastatic prostate cancer. Furthermore, since hypermutated MMRd prostate cancers can respond to immune checkpoint inhibitors, there is an urgent need for practical detection tools. We analyzed cell-free DNA targeted sequencing data from 434 metastatic prostate cancer patients with circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) purity above 2%. Samples with somatic hypermutation were subjected to 150x whole exome sequencing. These data allowed us to interrogate the salient genomic properties of this rare prostate cancer subtype and correlate findings with patient clinical outcomes.

• Integrating Circulating Tumor DNA Analysis and Radiomics for Dynamic Risk Assessment in Localized Lung Cancer

  DNA was isolated from pre-treatment and mid-treatment plasma samples and matched germline samples from patients undergoing chemoradiation therapy for stage IIB-IIIB non-small cell lung cancer. Sequencing libraries were hybrid captured using custom selector pools designed to target genes frequently mutated in non-small cell lung cancer prior to ultra-deep next generation sequencing.

• Circulating cell-free DNA methylation profiling for detection, distinction, and estrogen receptor status classification of advanced breast cancer

  We developed cell-free DNA (cfDNA) methylation signatures for minimally invasive breast cancer detection, distinction, and estrogen receptor (ER) status classification with cell-free Methylated DNA Immunoprecipitation and Sequencing (cfMeDIP-seq). We profiled peripheral blood plasma from 87 patients with mBC spanning ER-positive/HER2-negative (ER+/HER2-), HER2-positive, and triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC).

• Sequencing of cancer autopsies and ctDNA

  Tumor heterogeneity is a major obstacle for precision oncology strategies. To characterize inter-lesion heterogeneity in pre-treated cancers, we performed genetic and transcriptomic profiling of synchronous lesions from ten rapid autopsies comprising six cases of breast cancer, three of cholangiocarcinoma and one lung cancer case. For nine patients, we studied mutation representation in circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA).

• Evaluation of commercial Guardant360 ctDNA test in metastatic prostate cancer

  Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) sequencing provides a minimally-invasive method for tumor molecular stratification. We compared the commercial Guardant360 ctDNA test to an academic sequencing approach for profiling of metastatic prostate cancer. Plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) from 24 patients was sequenced with a validated, prostate cancer specific targeted research panel, and sent for simultaneous Guardant360 analysis.
