• Integrative Profiling of T790M Negative EGFR Mutated NSCLC Reveals Pervasive Lineage Transition and Therapeutic Opportunities

  We performed whole exome and transcriptome analysis of 59 first- and second-generation EGFR TKI resistant metastatic EGFR mutated patients to characterize and compare molecular alterations mediating resistance in T790M positive and negative disease. Transcriptomic analysis revealed ubiquitous loss of adenocarcinoma lineage gene expression in T790M negative tumors, orthogonally validated using multiplex immunohistochemistry. There was enrichment of genomic features such as TP53 alterations, 3q chromosomal amplifications, whole genome doubling and non-aging mutational signatures in T790M negative tumors. Almost half of resistant tumors were further classified as Immunehot, with clinical outcomes conditional on immune cell infiltration state and T790M status. Finally, using a Bayesian statistical approach, we explored how T790M negative and positive disease might be predicted using comprehensive genomic and transcriptomic profiles of treatment-naïve patients.

• Epithelioid haemangioendothelioma (EHE) case series from the Stafford Fox Rare Cancer Program

  Nine EHE cases with comprehensive histologic and molecular profiling from the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research Stafford Fox Rare Cancer Program were collated via nation-wide referral to the Australian Rare Cancer Portal. Molecular analysis of RNA, DNA or both was possible in seven of nine cases. Survival was highly variable and unrelated to molecular profile. DNA sequences for two cases are deposited here.

• Inactivation of TGFβ receptors in stem cells drives cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma - 30 whole exomes

  Melanoma patients treated with oncogenic BRAF inhibitors can develop cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) within weeks of treatment, driven by paradoxical RAS/RAF/MAPK pathway activation. Here, we identify frequent TGFBR1 and TGFBR2 mutations in human vemurafenib-induced skin lesions and in sporadic cSCC. Functional analysis reveals these mutations ablate canonical TGFβ Smad signaling which is localised to bulge stem cells in both normal human and murine skin. MAPK pathway hyperactivation (through BrafV600E or KrasG12D knockin) and TGFβ signaling ablation (through Tgfbr1 deletion) in LGR5+ve stem cells enables rapid cSCC development in the mouse. Mutation of Tp53 (which is commonly mutated in sporadic cSCC) coupled with Tgfbr1 deletion in LGR5+ve cells also results in cSCC development. These findings indicate that LGR5+ve stem cells can act as cells of origin for cSCC and that RAS/RAF/MAPK pathway hyperactivation or Tp53 mutation, coupled with loss of TGFβ signaling, are driving events of skin tumorigenesis.

• Subclonal somatic copy number alterations emerge and dominate in recurrent osteosarcoma

  Multiple large-scale genomic profiling efforts have been undertaken in osteosarcoma to define the genomic drivers of tumorigenesis, therapeutic response, and disease recurrence. The spatial and temporal intratumor heterogeneity could also play a role in promoting tumor growth and treatment resistance. Here, we conducted longitudinal whole-genome sequencing of 37 tumor samples from eight patients with osteosarcoma that relapsed or became refractory to initial therapy. We found that the chemoresistant population in recurrent osteosarcoma is subclonal at diagnosis, emerges at the time of primary resection due to selective pressure from neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and is characterized by unique oncogenic amplifications.

• WGS_of_healhy_mesothelial_cells_and_primary_mesothelima_cell_lines

  Mesothelioma is a rare and aggressive cancer associated with previous exposure to asbestos. Currently there are no effective treatments for mesothelioma and majority of patients will die within a year after diagnosis. Although a large number of preclinical and clinical trials assessed the efficacy of various therapuetic modes, none of the tested molecules entered the clinic. Thus, to better understand what drives mesothelioma carcinogenesis and to identify novel targets for therapy, here we aim at performing WGS of heathy mesothelial cells and a panel of mesothelioma cells lines. Primary mesothelial cell lines were established in prof. Marciniak lab from human pleural specimens, while primary mesothelioma cell lines were obtained from MesobanK. Both models constitute low passage cell lines and therefore should closely represent genetics of the original tissue.

• Integrated genetic and epigenetic analysis of myxofibrosarcoma

  Myxofibrosarcoma (MFS) is a common histological subtype of adult soft tissue sarcoma characterized by an infiltrative growth pattern and a high propensity for local recurrence. We underwent whole exome sequencing, RNA sequencing, and methylation analysis of MFS.

• Comparison of EGF and PDGF driven glioblastomas.

  Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common and aggressive type of primary brain tumor. Epidermal growth-factor (EGF) and platelet-derived growth-factor (PDGF) receptors are frequently amplified and/or possess gain-of-function mutations in these tumors. Despite years of research into tyrosine-kinase inhibitors, clinical trials have shown disappointing efficacy. One of the underlying reasons is intra-tumor heterogeneity. To assess the effect of intra-tumor heterogeneity on gene expression, we derived a general approach to map single-cell expression profiles to sequentially-acquired mutations identified from exome sequencing. Using 288 single cells, we constructed high-resolution phylogenies of EGF-driven and PDGF-driven GBMs, modeling transcriptional kinetics during tumor evolution. A deletion in a PDGF-receptor domain involved in dimerization correlated to an up-regulation of the PI3K/AKT pathway in a proneural GBM, and ectopic expression of this mutant PDGFRA in vitro enhanced proliferation and invasiveness. Descending the phylogenetic tree of the PDGFR-driven tumor corresponded to a progressive induction of an oligodendrocyte progenitor-like cell type that expresses growth and angiogenic factors. In contrast, phylogenetic analysis of an EGFR-amplified tumor showed a gradual up-regulation of pro-invasive genes.
