• Targeting vulnerabilities in IDH mutant tumours: The model matters WES study

  Introduction: Synthetic lethal interactions with IDH1 and IDH2 (IDH) mutations were identified in non-endogenous IDH mutant (IDHmut) AML and glioma models, but are absent in endogenous IDHmut chondrosarcoma cell lines. The translation into successful clinical applications has remained challenging, implying artificially created models do not fully recapitulate endogenous IDHmut tumour biology. The aim of this study was to elucidate if the model system is indeed an important factor to consider when studying therapeutic vulnerabilities in IDHmut tumours. Methods: Vector-based and CRISPR-Cas9 approaches were used to introduce or revert the IDH1 mutation in chondrosarcoma cell lines. These isogenic cell line pairs were used to examine the presence of known therapeutic vulnerabilities and their underlying biological mechanisms. Results: Vector-based IDHmut chondrosarcoma models showed the previously reported synthetic lethal interactions, but these treatment sensitivities were absent in the CRISPR-edited models. Interestingly, not all vector-based IDHmut cell lines displayed the same therapeutic vulnerabilities. Differences in treatment response were associated with multiple factors, including IDHmut protein expression and D-2-HG levels, in line with the fact that therapeutic vulnerabilities could be induced in the CRISPR-edited models by enhancing D-2-HG levels. Conclusion: Our findings demonstrate that synthetic lethal interactions observed in vector-based models are often a consequence of IDHmut protein overexpression and supra-physiological D-2-HG levels. These results highlight that relying on artificially created IDHmut models may lead to the identification of therapeutic vulnerabilities that are not present in IDHmut tumours, potentially explaining the poor translation of preclinical findings to clinical trials.

• Recurrent/Metastatic Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma Treated with Axitinib and Avelumab

  Data from patients with adenoid cystic carcinoma treated with combination of VEGFR inhibitor axitinib and anti-PD-L1 avelumab. Eligible patients had R/M ACC with progression within 6 months before enrollment. The primary end point was objective response rate (ORR) per RECIST 1.1; secondary end points included progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and toxicity. The study reached its primary end point with ≥4 PRs in 28 evaluable patients (confirmed ORR of 18%).

• Utility of whole exome sequencing for genomic newborn screening in India

  This study evaluates the use of genomic newborn screening to identify clinically relevant genetic variants in critically ill neonates. The project aims to investigate the potential of whole-exome sequencing (WES) for the early identification of rare genetic disorders. The study seeks to improve early diagnosis and support timely clinical management of neonates with suspected genetic conditions.

• Arcagen - Gynecologic cancer domain

  Arcagen is an EORTC/SPECTA pan-European project that aims to recruit 1000 rare cancer patients from different tumour domains of EURACAN. This study collected samples from advanced or metastatic rare cancer from patients older than 12, and analysed them using Foundation Medicine next-generation sequencing (NGS) panels (FoundationOne CDx for FFPE samples or FoundationOne Liquid CDx for blood samples). Here we are submitting the dataset that contain NGS files from patients with rare ovarian cancer and primary peritoneal cancer and/or fallopian-tube cancer, including low grade serous carcinoma, mucinous adenocarcinoma, clear cell adenocarcinoma; and other rare cancers such as sex cord tumors, germ cell tumor, yolk sac tumor, and malignant/immature teratoma (n=94).
