• Whole Exome Sequencing of Multiple Myeloma Patients

  We used whole exome sequencing (WES) data from 35 MM patients to evaluate possible mutational signatures and driver mutations associated with the patient’s clinical and cytogenetic characteristics.

• Clonal Evolution and Blastic Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell Neoplasm - Two Cases

  Here we present two case studies of sequential whole exome sequencing (WES) in patients, who both developed BPDCN throughout their medical history but primarily presented with lymphoid cancers (clonally related ALK-negative anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (ALCL) and T-lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL)) and whose bone marrow at remission exhibited a CMML phenotype, from which in both cases BPDCN clones arose that subsequently became treatment refractory.

• Identification of germline variants in Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) by whole- exome sequencing

  Medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) is a rare malignant tumor that arises from parafollicular cells. Approximately 8% of thyroid cancer cases are MTC, and about 25% of these have a hereditary component. Incorporating molecular parameters into tumor classification is important. Besides, the presence of pathogenic germline variants can impact directly on cancer prevention. Thus, the aim of this study was to perform whole exome sequencing (WES) on a consecutive series of hereditary RET wild-type MTC patients to identify genetic variants that may be involved in the carcinogenesis of this tumor. WES was performed on 28 patients negative for germline RET pathogenic variants using the NovaSeq 6000 platform. Variant classification followed American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics guidelines.Our study represents a significant advancement in gene discovery for MTC genetics.

• Whole-exome sequencing of acute myeloid leukemias with aberrations of chromosome 7

  Deletions and partial losses of chromosome 7 are frequent in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and are often linked to dismal outcome. However, the genomic landscape and prognostic impact of concomitant genetic aberrations remain incompletely understood. Therefore, we performed whole-exome sequencing of acute myeloid leukemias (N = 60) with aberrations of chromosome 7.

• Whole Exome Sequencing of Schizophrenia cases and controls performed at the Broad Institute on a cohort from Bristol, UK

• WES of breast cancer patients and controls

  This study assessed the variant profiles of 408 samples from 126 breast cancer patients with various survival outcomes, including paired uninvolved mammary gland samples collected at proximal distances from primary lesions. As a reference, control samples from 15 mammoplasty individuals without cancer history were studied. Whole exome sequencing was performed to identify post-zygotic and germline variants present in the studied samples. Variant annotation in known databases, interpretation, and statistical analyses followed to discern the clinical relevance of called variants.

• Whole-Exome Sequencing Plasma Control Samples for Benchmarking

  This study contains whole-exome sequencing plasma and HapMap (12877, 12878) control samples for bioinfomatic bencmarking. Plasma samples contain variations in the genes KRAS, NRAS, PIK3CA, and EGFR, including insertions and deletions, at 0.0%, 0.1%, 1.0%, and 5.0%.

• Tumor Evolution Analysis Uncovered Immune-Escape Related Mutations in Relapsed Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma

  More than 60% of patients with primary diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) achieve durable remissions upon the chemoimmunotherapy with R-CHOP. However, the outcome of the relapse patients is extremely poor. To characterize the molecular features that underlie treatment resistance, we performed whole-exome sequencing (n=44) and deep targeted sequencing (n=27) of 44 diagnosis-relapse DLBCL pairs. We found that the overall landscape of genetic alterations was concordant between diagnosis and relapse DLBCL. By a deep comparison of the longitudinal sequencings, we identified relapse-enriched mutations that involved in evasion of immune surveillance (CD58, TNFRSF14, PKD1, FAS), resistance to DNA damaging agents (ATM, TP53), and critical tumor suppressor gene (ZFHX3). Knockdown of ATM and ZFHX3 resulted in increased drug resistance in both germinal center B cell like (GCB) and activated B cell like (ABC) DLBCL cell lines in vitro, while the knockdown of TNFRSF14 and FAS conferred resistance specifically in GCB cell lines. Furthermore, we summarized two evolutionary patterns of DLBCL relapse as the “durable retention” model with stable clone structure, and the “selective sweep” model which exhibited significant clonal switch. Of note, genetic alterations leading to attenuated immune responses usually presented as trunk mutations in the “durable retention” model (7/12) while were newly acquired or expanded upon relapse in the “selective sweep” model (9/16). Overall, our study demonstrated that relapse DLBCL derives from distinct clonal evolutionary patterns, and highlighted immune escape as an important contributor of tumor relapse.
