• Optimized large-scale longitudinal biorepository of gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma patient-derived organoids

  To enable translation studies we created patient derived models to assess biomarkers, target validation, and patient response. To evaluate that the PDOs retain the genomic characteristics of the primary tumours we performed (WES) sequencing of 11 matched primary tumours and their matched organoid samples (total n=22). Libraries were sequenced using Illumina NovaSeq technology. Reads were aligned with BWA alignment to hg38. Files were processed following GATK best practices (version GATK 4.2.3.0). Variants were called using Mutect2. The dataset contains the alignmnent files (.bam) and the called mutations (.vcf).

• Phylogenetic analysis of paired breast carcinomas identifies genetic events associated with clonal recurrence and invasive progression

  Development of ipsilateral breast carcinoma following diagnosis of breast ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) has been assumed to represent recurrence of the primary tumour. However, this may not be the case and it is important to know how often recurrences are new tumours. Ipsilateral primary-recurrence pairs (n=78) were sequenced to test their clonal relatedness. Shared genetic events were identified from whole exome sequencing (n=54 pairs) using haplotype-specific copy number and phylogenetic analysis. The remaining pairs were sequenced by a targeted panel or low-coverage whole genome sequencing. We included 32 non-recurrent DCIS to compare recurrent and non-recurrent disease. We found that 7% of DCIS recurrences were non-clonal by whole exome sequencing, indicative of a new breast carcinoma. Lower resolution methods detected a higher non-clonality rate (29%). Comparing primary DCIS with their recurrences found that evolution of DCIS to invasive disease was associated with increased ploidy and copy number events. TP53 mutations were enriched in DCIS with clonal recurrence compared with non-recurrent DCIS. Our results verify that de novo “recurrent tumours” of independent origin occur in patients who may be at high risk. (https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2024.05.19.594731v2.full)

• Common origin and somatic mutation patterns of composite lymphomas and leukemias

  When two lymphomas occur concurrently or sequentially in a patient, it is a major question whether they derive from the same lymphocyte or hematopoietic precursor cell or developed independently. We studied four composite classic Hodgkin lymphomas (HL) and other mature B-cell lymphomas, and two composite mature B- and T-cell neoplasias by whole exome sequencing (WES) and analyzed shared somatic mutations in the lymphomas of these clonally related composite lymphomas, indicating their derivation from a common, pre-malignant precursor. Most identified mutations were restricted to one or the other of these lymphomas, likely explaining how distinct lymphomas developed from a common ancestral B cell. In the two B-cell/T-cell lymphoma cases, and a composite clonally unrelated HL/chronic lymphocytic leukemia, the lymphoma partners did not share any somatic mutations. In three cases, we identified potentially oncogenic variants also in cells serving as constitutional controls.

• WES sequencing of metastatic colorectal cancer patient-derived xenografts with known response to irinotecan.

  Chemotherapy is the standard-of-care treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) and benefits some patients, but what distinguishes responders from non-responders is unclear. In this study, we expand a pre-existing collection (https://doi.org/10.1158/2159-8290.CD-24-0556) of molecularly annotated patient-derived xenografts to uncover functional predictors of response to 5-FU and irinotecan combination therapy (FOLFIRI) in mCRC. We complemented previous mutational profiles with whole exome sequencing for 46 xenografts with known response to irinotecan.

• Distinct genomic profiles and clinical outcomes in constitutional mismatch repair deficiency-associated high-grade gliomas: insights into mutational signatures and clonal evolution

  Constitutional mismatch repair deficiency (CMMRD) is a rare cancer-predisposition syndrome, yet the mutational processes and clonal evolution of CMMRD-associated high-grade gliomas (HGGs) remain incompletely understood. In this study, mutational signatures and tumor evolution were analyzed in 25 CMMRD-associated HGGs. Germline biallelic mutations were most frequently identified in MSH6 (56.0%), followed by PMS2 (36.0%) and MLH1 (8.0%). Affected patients showed very early disease onset (mean 5.8 years) and poor clinical outcomes, with a mean progression-free survival of 16 months. Distinct genomic and clinical differences were observed between MSH6- and PMS2-associated tumors. MSH6-deficient HGGs were enriched for SBS6, whereas PMS2-deficient tumors showed predominance of SBS21, and these mutational signatures were correlated with prognosis. Clonal evolution analyses revealed early involvement of POLE/POLD1 mutations and persistence of the founding clone at recurrence. Overall, the study highlights the importance of mutational signatures and clonal evolution in shaping tumor behavior and clinical outcomes in CMMRD-associated HGGs.

• Whole Exome Sequencing of Human Gastro-esophageal Cancer PDXs

  The current study investigates biomarkers of response to anti-EGFR therapies in gastro-esophageal cancer. Whole exome sequencing was performed on 26 tumors to explore potential factors influencing treatment outcomes. As part of the analysis, somatic mutations in EGFR, ERBB2, and key downstream signaling genes (KRAS and PIK3CA) were examined to exclude the presence of known mutations conferring sensitivity/resistance. The study aims to contribute to the identification of patients who may benefit from lower-toxicity regimens, improving treatment personalization and minimizing adverse effects.

• Expanding the SPTBN1 Spectrum: A Case of Neurodevelopmental Disorder with GI and Musculoskeletal Involvement

  Background: Mutations in the SPTBN1 gene, which encodes the βII-spectrin protein, are associated with a recently described neurodevelopmental syndrome characterized by developmental delay, intellectual disability, autistic traits, seizures, and dysmorphic features. While the phenotypic spectrum continues to evolve, gastrointestinal (GI) involvement and vertical transmission remain rarely reported features. Case Presentation: We describe a 13-year-old male from Georgia with a heterozygous missense mutation in SPTBN1 (c.3799C>G, p.Leu1267Val), inherited from his clinically unaffected mother. The patient presented with cognitive and motor delays, autistic traits, behavioral challenges, feeding difficulties, growth delay, musculoskeletal anomalies (pectus excavatum, pes planus), and persistent GI symptoms including abdominal pain and gallbladder sludge. Despite therapy with ursodeoxycholic acid and nutritional counseling, the gallbladder abnormalities persisted over a 12-month follow-up. Feeding therapy could not be initiated due to access barriers, although parental efforts led to modest dietary improvement. Upon recent visit pes planus was also confirmed. Conclusion: This case contributes to the growing body of literature on SPTBN1-related neurodevelopmental disorders, highlighting the potential for a broader phenotypic spectrum than currently recognized. In addition to the well-documented behavioral, cognitive, and musculoskeletal features, our patient presented with notable gastrointestinal involvement—specifically, gallbladder sludge and feeding disorder—which are not commonly reported in association with SPTBN1 mutations. Although causality cannot be established from a single case, the observed GI manifestations may be indirectly related to underlying neurobehavioral features such as ASD and associated eating disorders. The identification of a vertically transmitted missense variant (c.3799C>G, p.Leu1267Val) adds to the limited but growing evidence of inherited SPTBN1 mutations, expanding our understanding of transmission patterns. Given the novelty of the findings, we emphasize the need for multidisciplinary management, including feeding and behavioral therapy, as well as longitudinal follow-up to assess developmental, nutritional, and hepatobiliary outcomes. Future studies and case series are warranted to determine whether pes planus, pectus excavatum, gastrointestinal symptoms, including biliary tract involvement, represent an underrecognized component of the SPTBN1 phenotypic spectrum.

• Rare Germline Variants in CDKN2A-Negative Children and Adolescents with Cutaneous Melanoma

  Cutaneous melanoma is a complex disease influenced by both environmental and genetic factors. Inherited susceptibility plays a significant role, involving a combination of high-, intermediate-, and low-penetrance genes. Melanoma in children and adolescents has been speculated to have a stronger genetic component due to the early onset. This study investigates germline variants in early-onset melanoma through exome sequencing of 154 patients in Australia diagnosed with cutaneous melanoma before the age of 20.
