Spatial heterogeneity, stromal phenotypes, and therapeutic vulnerabilities in colorectal cancer peritoneal metastasis

Peritoneal metastases (PM) in colorectal cancer (CRC) portend a poor prognosis. We sought to elucidate molecular features differentiating primary tumors (PTs) from PMs and actionable targets facilitating transcoelomic dissemination and progression. We performed multi-omic profiling of 217 samples from 136 patients, including 56 primary tumor (PT) and 120 PMs comprising 25 matched PT-PM pairs. Whole exome, and bulk RNA-seq analysis was conducted to identify underlying genomic aberrations and transcriptomic differences between primary and peritoneal lesions.

Dataset ID	Description	Technology	Samples
EGAD50000001199	This dataset consist of 63 samples profiled on whole exome sequencing and 86 samples profiled on whole transcriptome sequencing. The Agilent SureSelect Human All Exon v6 kit (Agilent Technologies) was used for whole exome sequencing. For RNA-seq experiments, library preparation was conducted using the Tru-Seq Stranded Total RNA with Ribo-Zero Gold kit protocol (Illumina). Libraries were sequenced on a HiSeq4000 sequencer using the paired-end 150 bp read option. Sequences in cram format was provided.	Illumina NovaSeq X	149
