• Acute lymphoblastic leukemia in children produces endogenous T-cells targeting tumor associated antigens and neoantigens in peripheral blood

  In this study we investigated the presence of endogenous T-cells recognizing private tumor-associated antigens and predicted neoantigens. To this end, HLA-I and HLA-II restricted tumor associated antigens (TAAs) and neoantigens were respectively identified and predicted from matched tumor and germline (PBMCs) in three acute lymphoblastic leukemia patients. Circulating T-cells targeting both Mass spectrometry (MS)-identified TAAs and predicted neoantigens were identified in virtually all pediatric BCP-ALL patients, extending up to two years on remission.

• A human induced pluripotent stem cell toolbox for studying sex chromosome effects-Whole exome seq

  To generate autosomaly isogenic hiPSCs with various chromosome complement, we use Klinefelter syndrome patient skin fibroblasts. These cells harbour XXY sex chromosomes, which can be lost during the reprogramming event and generate cells which are autosomaly identical to each other but differ in sex chromosome complement. We use state of the art reprogramming methods to generate panels of isogenic XXY, XX and XY iPSCs from XXY patient fibroblasts. We have performed Whole exome sequencing on Klinefelter syndrome patient's skin fibroblasts in order to check if two X chromosomes are identical and to see if we can distinguish which X chromosome is more likely to be lost during the reprogramming event in XY cell lines.

• Exome sequencing study of cells derived from QHJI14s04 human iPSC secondary cell stock

  Genomic abnormalities of cells used in regenerative medicine should be checked. This study evaluates variants on coding sequences of cells derived from QHJI14s04 human iPSC secondary cell stock. Here we conducted whole exome sequence of three vials from the stock.

• 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)

• Ashkenazi Jewish Leukoencephalopathy

  Genetic leukoencephalopathies (gLEs) are a group of heterogeneous disorders with white matter abnormalities in the central nervous system (CNS). Patients affected with gLEs have brain white matter defects that can be seen in MRI and exhibit variable neurologic phenotypes including motor impairment, hypotonia, pyramidal dysfunction, dystonia and/or dyskinesias, ataxia, seizures, cortical blindness, optic atrophy, and impaired cognitive development. The exact causes in half of gLEs are unknown. We studied three unrelated families affected with an undiagnosed gLE and discovered a homozygous germline mutation c.2536T>G in VPS11 by whole exome sequencing, a gene involved in membrane trafficking and fusion of the lysosomes and endosomes, as a novel cause of a new gLE syndrome.

• 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.

• WES of sorted B lineage cells from patients with plasma cell neoplasms

  Whole-exome sequencing (WES) was conducted on cell populations isolated from each patient—diagnosed with either multiple myeloma (MM) or light-chain amyloidosis (AL) —including CD34⁺ hematopoietic progenitors, B-cell precursors, mature B cells, normal plasma cells, and clonal plasma cells. In the control cohort of healthy adults, the same target cell populations were analyzed, with the exception of clonal plasma cells, which were absent.

• Idiopathic Collapsing Glomerulopathy in Brazilian patients

  Collapsing glomerulopathy is a severe kidney disease that often leads to chronic dialysis or kidney transplantation. To expand its understanding, we performed a broad clinical and genetic analysis of a highly admixed patient population with idiopathic collapsing glomerulopathy.
