• De Novo Mutation Rates at the Single-Mutation Resolution in the Human Genome

  We developed a method to measure the origination rates of target mutations of choice and applied it to the HbS and nearby mutations in the human beta-globin (HBB) gene, as well as to the equivalent mutations in the nearly identical delta-globin (HBD) gene in sperm cells from African and European donors. Specifically, after extracting DNA from the sperm of the donors, each sample is enriched for the HbS mutation and nearby mutations by the restriction enzyme Bsu36I, which cleaves the wild-type (WT) sequence CCTGAGG at positions 16–22 of HBB and the homologous positions of HBD while leaving the HbS mutant and other mutants in these positions intact. Next, unique barcodes are attached to the DNA fragments from these Bsu36I-treated samples in order to reduce error by consensus sequencing of copies originating from the same original fragment. To determine how many target WT sequences have been removed (scanned) by Bsu36I digestion and hence to be able to calculate the de novo mutation rate, we run a second reaction in parallel for each donor. This reaction involves the same steps as the former reaction except for digestion by Bsu36I (Bsu36I-untreated). Spiking into the Bsu36I-treated and untreated samples known amounts of mock HBB-like DNA molecules that are fully resistant to Bsu36I digestion allows to calculate in the sequence analysis stage the Bsu36I-enrichment score based on the change in their frequency between the two treatments, which in turn is used to calculate the number of scanned WT sequences. Our results show significant correspondence between de novo mutation rates and past observations of alleles in carriers, showing that mutation rates vary substantially in a mutation-specific manner that contributes to the site frequency spectrum. We also found that the overall point mutation rate is significantly higher in Africans than Europeans in the HBB region studied. Finally, the rate of the 20A>T mutation, called the “HbS mutation” when it appears in HBB, is significantly higher than expected from the genome-wide average for this mutation type. Nine instances were observed in the African HBB ROI, where it is of adaptive significance, representing at least three independent originations, and no instances were observed in the European HBB ROI or in the European or African HBD ROI.12 consented subjects; samples from two subjects were pooled

• WES Analysis of precancerous lesions in Lynch Syndrome

  The project focuses on identifying the genetic alterations involved in the early stages of tumor development in individuals with Lynch Syndrome. Using Whole Exome Sequencing (WES), the study aims to characterize somatic mutations and molecular pathways that drive the transformation from normal tissue to precancerous lesions. This research contributes to a better understanding of tumorigenesis in hereditary colorectal cancer syndromes.

• Establishment of xenogfafts and cultured cell lines from clinical samples

  The purpose of the present study was to clarify the presence or absence of alterations in the molecular properties of patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) with up to eight passages in endometrial carcinomas. Alterations in the proportion of immunohistochemically positive/negative cells for PAX8, estrogen receptor, PAX2, and PTEN were observed in established PDXs of endometrioid carcinomas and carcinosarcomas, whereas proportions of cells with AE1/AE3, TP53, ARID1A PMS2, and MSH6 were maintained. Variants of cancer-associated genes in PDX compared to those in the parental tumors were examined in two cases, a frameshift deletion in BRCA1 was observed in the parental tumor tissue, and additional genomic alterations were found in the PDXs of this case. Genomic and phenotypic alterations in endometrial carcinoma PDXs relative to the parental tumors were observed and were partly associated with endometrial cancer-specific characteristics in cellular differentiation and gene mutations.

• A Model of Human Asthma Exacerbation Identifies Mechanisms That Drive Allergic Asthma

  In this study, we will enroll allergic adults to undergo bronchoscopic segmental allergen challenge, in order to identify differences in the airway immune response to allergen in those with asthma compared to those without asthma. After a discussion about the study and potential risks, subjects giving written informed consent will undergo two bronchoscopies. During the first procedure, samples will be collected from the left lung and allergen will be administered to a small segment of the right lung. The second procedure will be performed 24 hours later, with collection of samples from the allergen-challenged lung segment.

• CRC Promoter capture Hi-C

  Genome organisation determines chromosome interactions between regulatory elements, such as promoters and enhancers, influencing gene expression. Despite the fact that it is possible to assess whether a gene is actively transcribed, it has been challenging to point out the genomic regions that are involved in the regulation of a particular gene. We are interested in better understanding the interactions between promoters and their regulatory elements in colorectal cancer in order to unveil novel non-coding regions which might have a role in tumour development. To do so, we utilise the HiC method complemented with promoter capture in combination with NGS to map promoter interactions in two CRC cell lines, representing two distinct CRC subtypes.

• A Phase I/II Study of Revlimid (lenalidomide) in Combination with Vidaza (azacitidine) in Patients with Advanced Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS)

  This single-arm study design has been selected to investigate the safety of combination therapy with Vidaza® (azacitidine) and Revlimid® (lenalidomide) in a population of 18 participants with advanced MDS for the Phase I portion, and 18 participants for the Phase II portion. The multi-center nature of the study should enhance the general applicability of the results. Participants with advanced MDS were chosen because it is expected that the combination of the two drugs will by myelosuppressive, which can be considered a necessary toxicity to effect improvements in PR and CR rates in this advanced population, akin to participants with AML. Finally, the combination was chosen to be studied because currently available therapies in this population, and their effectiveness, are limited, and single-agent Vidaza® (azacitidine), while effective at delaying transformation to AML or death, is not curative. The doses of Revlimid® (lenalidomide) in this study are similar to those that were demonstrated to have an effect and to be well-tolerated in participants with MDS. Doses for Vidaza® (azacitidine) are similar to those used in the pivotal trial, though for a 5-day treatment period instead of 7 to minimize toxicity for the first 3 blocks of participants, and then at a lower dose over a protracted period of time to explore the safety of a 10-day treatment course.

• Advancing Precision Oncology in a Humanized, Fully Autologous Mouse Model

  Progress in the early detection and treatment of cancer requires accurate model systems to further evaluate new, promising discoveries. Small animal and, in particular, mouse model systems are attractive to researchers for numerous reasons, including their ease of use and well-described platforms. The ability to grow human tumors in immune-deficient mice (so-called patient-derived xenografts, or PDXs) allows researchers to work directly with human cancer tissue in a controlled setting. However, PDX models are limited by their lack of an intact immune system. Immunotherapy has revolutionized clinical oncology, but lacks pre-clinical models of the human immune system and human cancer to investigate new modalities and limitations/toxicities of treatment regimens. The broad objective of this study is to validate an in vivo model to evaluate human tumors in the context of a complete and intact human immune system in a completely personalized and autologous fashion to study cancer immunotherapy. Herein, we will: (1) validate the ability of our humanized system to serve as a model for cancer immunotherapy treatment response and toxicity in patients with melanoma, including immunotherapy checkpoint blockade and vaccine strategies, and (2) extend our current work in melanoma by validating the ability to establish humanized mice and evaluate tumor growth and leukocyte development in autologous human pancreatic and colorectal tumors established in humanized mice. In each of these areas, we will leverage our multi-institutional team's individual expertise along with our institutional infrastructure to maximize the success of the experimental aims. The results from this project will be widely available to the general research community for future, hypothesis-driven research. Taken together, our study will meet multiple goals and address several unmet needs in cancer immunotherapy, thus significantly enhancing the applicability of a fully autologous and immunocompetent precision model system for use in translational oncology research.
