• Comprehensive analyses of genetic aberrations in gastroenterological tumors

  Intestinal metaplasia (IM) is a risk factor of gastric cancer in gastric mucosa with Helicobacter pylori infection. To explore the susceptibility to the cancer development in pure gastric IM, we investigated landscape of genetic alterations in gastric single-glands with IM.

• Liquid biopsy to identify taxane resistance in castration-resistant prostate cancer patients

  Taxanes are life-prolonging treatments for patients with advanced prostate cancer. However, treatment resistance and lethal disease invariably develops. We here used liquid biopsies to identify and characterize resistance to cabazitaxel using a targeted sequencing panel (PCF-SELECT).

• Multiomic cell-free DNA profiling to inform molecular classification and immunotherapy outcomes in endometrial cancer

  This study involved a cell-free DNA (cfDNA) framework integrating genomic, transcriptomic and epigenomic profiling to investigate patient response to immune checkpoint inhibitors in advanced endometrial cancer (EC) with mismatch repair deficiency (dMMR).

• Colorectal cancer functional annotation - MPRA

  We performed a Massively Parallel Reporter Assay (MPRA) in colorectal cancer (CRC) cell lines HT29 and SW403 and normal colon cell line HCEC-1CT. We specifically targeted the regions around the CRC GWAS loci to identify which variants alter transcription.

• APOBEC3 mutagenesis drives therapy resistance in breast cancer

  Acquired genetic alterations commonly drive resistance to endocrine and targeted therapies in metastatic breast cancer, however the underlying processes engendering these diverse alterations are largely uncharacterized. To identify the mutational processes operant in breast cancer and their impact on clinical outcomes, we utilized a well-annotated cohort of 3,880 patient samples with paired tumor-normal sequencing data. The mutational signatures associated with apolipoprotein B mRNA-editing enzyme catalytic polypeptide-like 3 (APOBEC3) enzymes were highly prevalent and enriched in post-treatment compared to treatment-naïve hormone receptor-positive (HR+) cancers. APOBEC3 mutational signatures were independently associated with shorter progression-free survival on antiestrogen plus CDK4/6 inhibitor combination therapy in patients with HR+ metastatic breast cancer. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) of breast cancer models and selected paired primary-metastatic samples demonstrated that active APOBEC3 mutagenesis promoted resistance to both endocrine and targeted therapies through characteristic alterations such as RB1 loss-of-function mutations. Evidence of APOBEC3 activity in pre-treatment samples illustrated a pervasive role for this mutational process in breast cancer evolution. The study reveals APOBEC3 mutagenesis to be a frequent mediator of therapy resistance in breast cancer and highlights its potential as a biomarker and target for overcoming resistance.

• National Cancer Institute (NCI) Head and Neck Cancer Study

  Head and neck cancers have well-documented associations with tobacco and alcohol exposure, but the disease develops in only a small fraction of users, which implies an important role for genetic susceptibility. Therefore, head and neck cancers are an excellent model for studying genetic susceptibility to environmental carcinogens. The primary goal of this study is to perform a comprehensive two-stage, high-density, genome-wide single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analysis of head and neck cancer cases and corresponding frequency matched controls to identify novel genetic risk factors for head and neck cancer. In the study, we genotyped 2242 head and neck cancer cases and 1198 controls using Illumina HumanOmniExpress-12v1 BeadChip.

• Proteogenomic discovery of a novel class of cancer antigens by HLA ligandome analysis of colon cancer tissues

  CD8+ T cells recognize peptides displayed by HLA class I molecules on cell surfaces, monitoring pathological conditions such as cancer. Recent advances in proteogenomic analysis of HLA ligandomes have demonstrated that cells present a subset of cryptic peptides derived from non-coding regions of the genome; however, the roles of cryptic HLA ligands in tumor immunity remain unknown. In the present study, we comprehensively and quantitatively investigated the HLA class I ligandome of a set of human colorectal cancer (CRC) and matched normal tissues, showing that cryptic translation products account for a small fraction of the HLA class I ligandome and serve as antigens for patient T cell surveillance against colon cancer.
