• DNA Methylation age and mortality in the Lothian Birth Cohorts of 1921 and 1936

  The study examined the association between DNA methylation age and mortality. Methylation age was estimated in 4 cohorts (including the Lothian Birth Cohorts of 1921 and 1936) and related to subsequent time-to-death. Across all four cohorts there was a strong correlation between predicted methylation age and chronological age. For individuals with a 5 year age acceleration (DNA methylation age - chronological age = 5), there was a meta analysed hazard ratio of mortality of 1.21 [1.14, 1.29]. Phenotype data associated with the study are available through dbGaP, the methylation raw data are available through the European Genome-phenome Archive (EGA; accession number EGAS00001000910).

• Novel APC Promoter and Exon 1B Deletion and Allelic Silencing in Three Mutation-Negative Classic Familial Adenomatous Polyposis Families

  The ~80% of individuals with classic familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) have detectable mutations in the coding sequence of the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene. To investigate the 20% of families without detectable causative mutations, we used exome sequencing and second-generation sequencing of the APC locus including non-coding regions. We identified a novel ~11kb deletion 44kb upstream of APC that was present only in affected individuals of three kindreds. SNP analysis showed that this ~11kb deletion was accompanied by silencing of one of the APC alleles in blood-derived RNA of affected individuals.

• Dynamics of genomic clones in breast cancer patient xenografts at single cell resolution

  Human cancers, including breast cancers, are comprised of clones differing in mutation content that evolve dynamically in space and time following principles of Darwinian evolution, underpinning important emergent features such as drug resistance and metastasis. Human breast cancer xenoengraftment is used as a means of capturing and studying tumour biology, and breast tumour xenografts are generally assumed to be reasonable models of the originating tumours. However the consequences and reproducibility of engraftment and propagation on the genomic clonal architecture of tumours has not been systematically examined at single cell resolution. Here we show by both deep genome and single cell sequencing methods, the clonal dynamics of initial engraftment and subsequent serial propagation of primary and metastatic human breast cancers in immunodeficient mice. In all cases examined, clonal selection on engraftment was observed in both primary and metastatic breast tumours, varying in degree from extreme selective engraftment of minor (<5% of starting population) clones to moderate, polyclonal engraftment. Furthermore, ongoing clonal dynamics during serial passaging is a feature of tumours experiencing modest initial selection. Through single cell sequencing, we show that major mutation clusters estimated from tumour population sequencing relate predictably to the most abundant clonal genotypes, even in clonally complex and rapidly evolving cases. Finally, we show that similar clonal expansion patterns can emerge in independent grafts of the same starting tumour population, indicating that genomic aberrations can be reproducible determinants of evolutionary trajectories. Our results show that measurement of genomically defined clonal population dynamics will be highly informative for functional studies utilizing patient-derived breast cancer xenoengraftment.

• Phase II Therapeutic Trial of Mexiletine in Non-Dystrophic Myotonia (IND #77,021)

  Non-dystrophic myotonias are a group of rare muscle disorders caused by abnormalities in different muscle cell membrane proteins. Patients experience delayed muscle relaxation that causes impaired physical activity, stiffness, and pain. Mexiletine has been shown to be beneficial for symptoms of myotonia in case reports of patients with non-dystrophic myotonia, however, current management of these patients primarily depends on individual practitioners' preference. This study is a placebo-controlled, double-blind, cross-over treatment trial using mexiletine in non-dystrophic myotonias. The results, if positive, will permit the identification of mexiletine as an effective therapy for myotonia, making it a first-line therapy for patients with non-dystrophic myotonia. The specific aim of this proposal is to perform a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled cross-over study to assess whether mexiletine improves both quantitative and qualitative measures of myotonia in patients with non-dystrophic myotonia. Given the rarity of non-dystrophic myotonia, large randomized controlled treatment trials in these disorders have not been feasible in the past. Primary Outcome Measure: Patient-assessed symptom: stiffness as measured by an Interactive Voice Response Diary (IVR). Secondary Outcome Measures: a) patient-assessed pain, weakness, and fatigue as measured by IVR; b) clinical myotonia assessment; c) quality of life as measured by INQoL, SF36; d) a quantitative measure of grip myotonia; e) measurement of CMAP after short and long exercise; f) grading of myotonia on needle EMG.

• Somatic Genome Dynamics of Barrett's Esophagus Patients with Non-Cancer and Cancer Outcomes

  A case-control study was designed with 80 participants diagnosed with Barrett's Esophagus (BE) selected from a larger case-cohort study (Li et al., 2014, PMID: 24253313) within the Seattle Barrett's Esophagus Program (SBEP) at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center. The study included 40 cases with BE with non-cancer outcomes, "NCO", who did not progress to esophageal adenocarcinoma (EA), and 40 controls who progressed to an endoscopically detected, incident EA (cancer outcome, "CO"). For each patient, two timepoints were evaluated (T1 and T2). NCO were matched to CO based on age at T1 (T1=first endoscopy with sufficient sample availability), and time between T1 and T2 (T2 in CO=time of diagnosis of incident EA). In 10 NCO, a third time point (T3), a mean of 13.2 years after T1, was also sequenced. Mapped endoscopic biopsies, at 1/3 and 2/3 annotated distances from the gastroesophageal junction within the Barrett's segment, were sampled per patient at each timepoint. Each biopsy was purified to separate BE epithelium from stroma, and DNA was extracted from purified epithelium for 60X WGS and 2.5M SNP array; normal control blood (N=62) or normal gastric sample (N=18) were analyzed by 30X WGS and 2.5M SNP array. An additional seven normal gastric biopsy samples in seven patients with normal control blood were also sequenced at 60X as controls. All research participants contributing clinical data and esophageal samples to this study provided written informed consent, subject to oversight by the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center IRB Committee D (Reg ID 5619).

• Structural Alterations Driving Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer Revealed by Linked-Read Genome Sequencing

  Adapted from manuscript in review: Nearly all prostate cancer deaths are from metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) but there have been few whole genome sequencing (WGS) studies of this disease state. We performed linked-read WGS on 23 mCRPC biopsy specimens and analyzed cell-free DNA sequencing data from 86 patients with mCRPC. In addition to frequent rearrangements affecting known prostate cancer genes, we observed complex rearrangements of the AR locus in most cases. These include highly recurrent tandem duplications involving an upstream enhancer of AR. A subset of cases also displayed a genome-wide tandem duplicator phenotype associated with CDK12 inactivation. Our findings highlight the complex genomic structure of mCRPC nominate new alterations that may inform prostate cancer treatment, and suggest that additional recurrent events in the noncoding mCRPC genome remain to be discovered.

• RNAseq of MCL cell lines

  This study profiles the transcriptomic response of the Mino-VEN-R and Jeko-BTK-R mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) cell lines to pirtobrutinib (PBN) treatment using bulk RNA sequencing. Mino-VEN-R models drug-tolerant persister (DTP) cells that arise during exposure to non-covalent BTK inhibitors. Building on our recent findings that DTP cells undergo metabolic and phenotypic state transitions governed by TCA cycle reprogramming, this dataset aims to capture gene expression changes associated with treatment-induced plasticity. The results contribute to a broader multi-omic framework exploring mechanisms of resistance and therapeutic vulnerability in MCL.

• "BaTwa" populations from Zambia retain ancestry of past hunter-gatherer groups

  We genotyped and analyzed over two million genome-wide SNPs from two BaTwa populations (40 individuals by population), and from three comparative farming populations (10 to 21 individuals by population) in order to: (i) determine if the Zambian BaTwa carry any genetic material linking them to past hunter-gatherer-groups, and (ii) characterize the genetic affinities of past Zambian hunter-gatherer-groups. We found that both BaTwa populations harbor a hunter-gatherer- like genetic component, representing ∼19% (Bangweulu) and ∼31% (Kafue) of their genetic ancestry, while the rest of their ancestry is similar to western Africans.
