• Whole-Genome Sequencing in Multiplex Epilepsy Families

  Epilepsy is one of the most common neurologic disorders, affecting approximately 4% of individuals at some time in their lives. More than 30% of people with epilepsy continue to have seizures despite treatment, and improved approaches to treatment and prevention are sorely needed. In the search for new strategies to reduce the burden of disease, the discovery of specific genes that influence risk offers a novel opportunity to clarify pathogenic mechanisms, identify susceptible individuals prior to seizure onset, and treat and prevent seizures in people at risk. Despite clear evidence of the importance of genetics in susceptibility to epilepsy, only limited progress has been made in identifying the specific genes that influence risk. One of the greatest challenges for genetic research on this disorder is its extreme clinical and genetic heterogeneity. Although epilepsy is broadly defined by recurrent unprovoked seizures, it is so variable in its clinical manifestations, natural history, and treatment response that most epileptologists view it as a collection of different syndromes ("epilepsies") with distinct etiologies. The genetic effects on susceptibility are also likely to be extremely variable, ranging from rare variants with high penetrance (some of which produce Mendelian patterns of inheritance) to common variants with low penetrance. Recent findings strongly suggest that rare gene variants play a major role in the genetic architecture of the epilepsies. The purpose of this study was to discover new genetic risk factors for epilepsy. The primary approach was to use whole-genome sequencing to interrogate classes of genetic variants, including very rare variants, in multiplex families. Our main hypothesis was that, in at least some proportion of these families, a single variant would explain all instances of epilepsy. Variants identified within the families could then be tested for cosegregation within the family and also validated by seeing enrichment in sporadic epilepsy cases. Furthermore, understanding the impact of rare variation in epilepsy also has the potential to provide insight into the genetic architecture of other complex human diseases. Our analysis focused on families containing multiple individuals with non-acquired (idiopathic or unknown cause) epilepsy under the hypothesis that these would be enriched for genetic control. The families studied had been previously collected and phenotyped in detail, and contain an average of 3.8 individuals per family with a range of different types of epilepsy. We selected one or two affected individuals from each family for sequencing. This work has generated NGS data on 60 samples from 29 multiplex epilepsy families. We have established that, under a monogenic model of inheritance, sequencing pairs of distantly related relatives is an effective method for reducing the number of candidate variants. Critically, we have found that no single variant can explain a large proportion of these epilepsy families. This work emphasizes that identifying causal variants among the many genetic candidates found in this work will require very large sample sizes and gene-based analyses.

• Heart Failure Network: Entresto(TM) in Advanced Heart Failure (HFN-LIFE-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.Objectives: To compare treatment with sacubitril/valsartan versus valsartan alone in patients with advanced heart failure with a reduced ejection fraction and recent New York Heart Association class IV symptoms.Background: Treatment with evidence-based medical therapies improves survival, reduces heart failure hospitalizations, and improves quality of life in patients with chronic heart failure with a reduced ejection fraction. However, evidence supporting the use of medical therapies among patients with advanced heart failure is limited. Patients with New York Heart Association (NYHA) class IV heart failure are not often enrolled in clinical trials.A previous trial reported that, compared with the angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor enalapril, sacubitril/valsartan, an angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor, reduced the relative risk of cardiovascular mortality and heart failure hospitalizations by 20% in ambulatory patients with heart failure with a reduced ejection fraction. Although patients with NYHA class IV heart failure were eligible to enroll, this population was underrepresented. The HFN-LIFE trial was initiated to provide additional information about the tolerability, safety, and potential efficacy of sacubitril/valsartan in patients with advanced heart failure.Participants: Of the eligible patients that enrolled, a total of 335 patients tolerated the run-in phase and were randomized to a treatment group. 167 patients were randomly assigned to receive sacubitril/valsartan and 168 patients were randomly assigned to receive valsartan alone.Design: The HFN-LIFE trial was a prospective, multicenter, randomized, double-blind phase 4 clinical trial. Trial enrollment was suspended early, due to the high risk for adverse outcomes associated with COVID-19 infection.Eligible patients were enrolled and began an unblinded run-in period of 3 to 7 days with sacubitril/valsartan, 24/26 mg (50-mg fixed dose), administered orally twice daily. Participants tolerating the run-in phase were randomized in a 1:1 fashion to receive sacubitril/valsartan (target dose, 200 mg twice daily) or valsartan (target dose, 160 mg twice daily). The initial doses were selected based on guidelines with dose adjustments being made every 2 weeks.The primary efficacy outcome was the area under the curve of NT-proBNP levels at 2, 4, 8, 12, and 24 weeks compared with the level of NT-proBNP at randomization. The secondary efficacy end point was the number of days the patient was alive, out of the hospital, and free from any of the following outcomes: listing for cardiac transplant, cardiac transplant, implantation of a left ventricular assist device, receipt of continuous inotropic therapy for 7 or more days, or hospitalization for heart failure on 2 or more occasions other than the index admission.Conclusions: In patients with chronic advanced heart failure with a reduced ejection fraction, there was no statistically significant difference between sacubitril/valsartan and valsartan alone with respect to reducing NT-proBNP levels.

• ACTIV-6: COVID-19 Outpatient Randomized Trial to Evaluate Efficacy of Repurposed Medications

  This study is a platform protocol designed to be flexible so that it is suitable for a wide range of settings within healthcare systems and in community settings where it can be integrated into routine COVID-19 testing programs and subsequent treatment plans. This platform protocol will enroll participants in an outpatient setting with a confirmed polymerase chain reaction (PCR) or antigen test for SARS-CoV-2. Each appendix will describe a repurposed medication (study drug) to meet the protocol objectives. When only one study drug/appendix is under study, allocation between study drug and placebo will be 1:1. If multiple study drugs/appendices are under study, participants will also be randomized among the study drugs for which eligibility is confirmed. Since the route of administration of each study drug may differ, the placebos may also differ. To achieve blinding and an equitable randomization probability, a two-step randomization process will be used.In the first step, the participant will be randomized m:1 active study drug to placebo, where m is the number of active study drugs for which the participant is eligible. Then, participants will be randomized among the m study drugs for which they are eligible. Participants will carry their ‘study drug' versus ‘placebo' randomization with them into the study drug appendix. In this way, a participant allocated to placebo who is randomized to study drug A will be given the placebo that matches study drug A. This achieves equal probability of exposure to a placebo or an active study drug, and equitable distribution among all study arms for which a participant is eligible. Sites will be informed to which study drug appendix the participant is randomized, but not whether they are allocated to the study drug arm or placebo arm within that appendix. For analysis, concurrent placebo participants who were eligible for the study drug appendix will be pooled. This will result in approximately a 1:1 allocation ratio for any study drug to placebo. If a study drug appendix is stopped for efficacy and becomes standard of care, the active study drug arm may serve as a concurrent placebo for other study drugs.Participants will receive complete supply of repurposed medication (study drug) or placebo with length of treatment and amount of study drug/placebo depending on the study drug appendix and arm to which they are randomized.This study is designed so that it can be done completely remotely. However, screening and enrollment may occur in person at sites and unplanned study visits may occur in person or remotely, as deemed appropriate by an investigator for safety purposes. Participants will be on-study for up to 180 days, during which they will complete various questionnaires.

• Genome-Wide Approach to Measure Variant-Based Heritability of Drug Outcome Phenotypes

  Current pharmacogenetic approaches often use a few large-effect alleles to predict drug outcomes. However, many drug outcome phenotypes are determined by complex pathways that may be influenced by common single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) across the genome. We ascertained how much variation in drug response is explained by common SNVs for pharmacokinetic (drug levels) and pharmacodynamic phenotypes (highest creatinine) for 4 drugs: vancomycin, gentamicin, cyclosporine and tacrolimus.

• Inherited damaging mutations in immune-related genes favour the development of genetically heterogeneous synchronous colorectal cancer.

  Synchronous colorectal cancers are physically separated tumours that develop simultaneously in the intestine. To understand how common genetic and environmental backgrounds influence the development of multiple tumours, we conduct a genome-wide comparative analysis of somatic alterations of 20 syCRCs from 10 patients. We show that syCRCs have independent genetic origins, acquire discordant somatic alterations, and follow different clonal developments.
