• Immune Profiles Study

  This study assesses glioma patient blood methylation longitudinally beginning pre-surgery through other clinically important timepoints. Progression and survival are studied in relation to methylation derived immunologic profiles and other characteristics. For this study, patients scheduled for surgery at University of California San Francisco (UCSF) for a possible newly diagnosed glioma (grades 2-4) or recurrent grade 2/3 glioma were consented and enrolled. Patients had blood collected pre-surgery and, if the pathology results confirm a glioma, every few weeks or months during their treatment (up to 30 total timepoints). Blood immunomethylomic profiles were measured at these timepoints to assess associations with glioma patient outcomes, clinical measures, other known prognostic markers, and imaging characteristics.

• Molecular Correlatives from SU2C-SARC032

  SU2C-SARC032 was a phase II international, randomized trial for patients with localized, high-risk undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma or dedifferentiated or pleomorphic liposarcoma of the extremity and limb girdle. On the trial, the addition of perioperative pembrolizumab to preoperative radiotherapy and surgery improved disease-free survival compared to preoperative radiotherapy and surgery alone. Bulk RNA-sequencing was performed on pre-treatment and surgically resected tumor specimens.

• National Emphysema Treatment Trial (NETT-BioLINCC)

  Data Access NOTE: Please refer to the “Authorized Access” section below for information about how access to the data from this accession differs from many other dbGaP accessions. Available Data: The current release of the NETT study dataset includes follow-up data through May of 2013.Objectives: To compare lung-volume-reduction surgery with medical therapy for severe emphysema, and to identify participant selection criteria for lung volume reduction surgery.Background: Lung-volume-reduction surgery has been proposed as a palliative treatment for severe emphysema. Effects on mortality, the magnitude and durability of benefits, and criteria for the selection of participants have not been established.Participants: A total of 1,218 participants with severe emphysema underwent pulmonary rehabilitation and were randomly assigned at 17 centers to undergo lung-volume-reduction surgery (bilateral stapled wedge resection) or to receive continued medical treatment. Participants were randomized after a 6-10 week pulmonary rehabilitation period and participants with a forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) that was 20 percent or less of predicted and a homogeneous distribution of emphysema or carbon monoxide diffusing capacity 20 percent or less of predicted were not eligible for randomization due to poor post-surgery prognosis for death or functional improvement.Conclusions: Overall, lung-volume-reduction surgery increases the chance of improved exercise capacity but does not confer a survival advantage over medical therapy. It does yield a survival advantage for participants with both predominantly upper-lobe emphysema and low base-line exercise capacity. Participants previously reported to be at high risk and those with non-upper-lobe emphysema and high base-line exercise capacity are poor candidates for lung-volume-reduction surgery, because of increased mortality and negligible functional gain.

• Blood Gene Signatures Associated with Stiffness After TKA

  In this study, we used PAXgene Blood RNA tubes collected from patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) for osteoarthritis. Samples were collected with IRB approval and patient consent. We identified 8 patients with knee stiffness after TKA (cases) and 10 patients without post-TKA stiffness (controls). We isolated RNA from cases and controls for RNA-seq analyses, comparing samples collected the day of surgery and samples collected at 24 hours after surgery.
