• Sequencing of an organoid biobank for childhood kidney cancers that captures disease and tissue heterogeneity.

  Kidney tumors are among the most common solid tumors in children, comprising several distinct subtypes differing in many aspects, including cell-of-origin, genetics, and pathology. Pre-clinical cell models capturing the disease heterogeneity are currently lacking. Here, we describe the first pediatric cancer organoid biobank. It contains tumor and matching normal organoids from over 50 children with different subtypes of kidney cancer, including Wilms tumors, malignant rhabdoid tumors, renal cell carcinomas, and congenital mesoblastic nephromas. The malignant rhabdoid tumor organoids represent the first organoid model for tumors of non-epithelial origin. The tumor organoids retain key properties of native tumors, useful for revealing patient specific drug vulnerabilities. We further demonstrate that organoid cultures derived from Wilms tumors consist of multiple different cell types, including epithelial, stromal and blastemal-like. Our organoid biobank captures the cellular heterogeneity of pediatric kidney tumors, providing a representative collection of well-characterized models for basic cancer research, drug-screening, and personalized medicine.

• Evolution of DNA repair defects during malignant progression of low-grade gliomas after temozolomide treatment.

  Temozolomide (TMZ) increases the overall survival of patients with glioblastoma (GBM), but its role in the clinical management of diffuse low-grade gliomas (LGG) is still being defined. DNA hypermethylation of the O 6 -methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) promoter is associated with an improved response to TMZ treatment, while inactivation of the DNA mismatch repair (MMR) pathway is associated with therapeutic resistance and TMZ-induced mutagenesis. We previously demonstrated that TMZ treatment of LGG induces driver mutations in the RB and AKT-mTOR pathways, which may drive malignant progression to secondary GBM. To better understand the mechanisms underlying TMZ-induced mutagenesis and malignant progression, we explored the evolution of MGMT methylation and genetic alterations affecting MMR genes in a cohort of 34 treatment-naïve LGGs and their recurrences. Recurrences with TMZ-associated hypermutation had increased MGMT methylation compared to their untreated initial tumors and higher overall MGMT methylation compared to TMZ-treated non-hypermutated recurrences. A TMZ-associated mutation in one or more MMR genes was observed in five out of six TMZ-treated hypermutated recurrences. In two cases, pre-existing heterozygous deletions encompassing MGMT, or an MMR gene, were followed by TMZ-associated mutations in one of the genes of interest. These results suggest that tumor cells with methylated MGMT may undergo positive selection during TMZ treatment in the context of MMR deficiency.

• 5 scRNA-seq with TCR Enrichment of Tumour-Involved Lymph Nodes, Malignant Seromas and Patient-Derived Xenografts from 18 T-Cell Lymphoma Patients

  This raw data contains 5' scRNA-seq with TCR enrichment data from 18 individual patients analysing cells taken from tumour-involved lymph nodes (LN), malignant seromas and patient-derived xenografts (PDX) including systemic/nodal ALK+ ALCL (n=3 PDX), BIA-ALCL (n=2 seromas), PTCL-NOS (n=5 nodal tumours), nodal T follicular helper lymphoma - angioimmunoblastic type (nTFHL-AI) (n=1), nTFHL, not otherwise specified (nTFHL, NOS, n=1), TLBL (n=5) and 1 case of Sezary Syndrome (SS, cutaneous tumour). Droplet-based 5’ scRNA-seq with TCR enrichment (10x Chromium platform) was performed for all live cells, or the viable CD45+CD3- and CD45+CD3+ fractions following cell sorting by flow cytometry.

• RNAseq of medulloblastoma data (MB_COMICS cohort)

  Medulloblastoma (MB) is the most common malignant brain tumor in children. It is a neuroectodermal tumor located in the cerebellum. International consensus recognizes four distinct subgroups of MBs including Wingless (WNT), Sonic Hedgehog (SHH), Group 3 (G3), and Group 4 (G4) with distinct molecular characteristics, prognoses, and mortality rates in patients. Here, we have compiled and evaluated a large international MB cohort for which we generated transcriptomic data (RNAseq) for 208 primary MB patient samples.

• Germ Cell and Associated Heme Malignancies Evolve from a Common Shared Precursor

  Germ cell tumors (GCTs) are the most common cancer in men between the ages of 15-40. While most patients are cured, those with disease arising in the mediastinum have distinctly poor outcomes. One in every 17 patients with primary mediastinal non-seminomatous GCTs develop an incurable hematologic malignancy and prior data intriguingly suggests a clonal relationship exists between hematologic malignancies and GCTs in these cases. To date however, the precise clonal relationship between GCTs and the diverse additional somatic malignancies arising in such individuals has not been determined. Here, we traced the clonal evolution and characterized the genetic features of each neoplasm from a cohort of fifteen patients with GCTs and associated hematologic malignancies. We discovered that GCTs and hematologic malignancies developing in such individuals evolved from a common shared precursor, nearly all of which harbored allelically imbalanced TP53 and/or RAS pathway mutations. Hematologic malignancies arising in this setting genetically resembled mediastinal GCTs rather than de novo myeloid neoplasms. Our findings argue that this scenario represents a unique clinical syndrome, distinct from de novo GCTs or hematologic malignancies, initiated by an ancestral precursor which gives rise to the parallel evolution of GCTs and blood cancers in these patients.

• Integrated Genomic Analysis of Periampullary Tumors at The Human Genome Sequencing Center, Baylor College of Medicine (HGSC-BCM)

  Adenocarcinomas arising in the complex environment of the ampulla of Vater constitute a histopathological heterogenous group, presumably originating from the different epithelial cellular constituents present at the site: pancreas, bile duct, and intestinal duodenum. These tumors have been described in many different ways: intra-ampullary, periampullary, intra-ampullary papillary-tubular neoplasm, ampullary-ductal, periampullary-duodenal, and ampullary-not otherwise specified. These varied classifications reflect the difficulty in classifying these tumors into specific groups. Only the tumors clearly localized in the bile duct or duodenum are identified as distal cholangiocarcinomas (CAC) or duodenal adenocarcinomas (DUOAC). The current classification is based on macroscopic features that may distinguish the epithelium of origin, microscopic features, clinicopathological criteria, histopathology and expression of differential markers. This classification is subjective and prone to inter-observer variability and significantly impacts on treatment selection and therapeutic development. In order to define subtypes of periampullary cancer with clinical relevance, we performed whole exome sequencing and copy number analysis of 160 cancers arising in the periampullary region, 62 of these clearly arising from either the bile duct (n = 44), or the duodenum (n = 18) and 98 periampullary cancers (AMPAC) where the epithelium of origin could not be clearly defined.
