• Cancer and germline exomes, and cancer RNA-seq consisiting of FASTQ paired-end reads from melanoma, lung and colon cancer samples

  Discovery of patient-specific tumor antigens usually requires in vitro-expanded autologous tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), among which tumor antigen-specific T cells are however often rare, thus limiting sensitivity. We designed in vitro culture conditions to improve the identification of rare tumor antigen-specific CD8 TILs. This innovative yet accessible pipeline allows highly-sensitive identification of tumor antigens and cognate T cell receptors (TCRs), greatly improving the selection of candidates for personalized cancer vaccines and TCR-based cellular immunotherapies.

• Immune profiling reveals enrichment of distinct immune signatures in high-risk oral potentially malignant disorders

  Oral epithelial dysplasia (OED) associates with an increased risk of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Changes in the immune landscape of OED that accompany transformation remain understudied. We evaluated gene co-expression in benign lesions (fibroepithelial polyps; FEP), high-risk OED (mod-sev OED) and early stage OSCC. We demonstrate that transcripts indicating immune responses are enriched in high-risk OED. In particular, immune signatures representing high lymphocyte infiltration and cytotoxic responses are prominent, indicating active immunosurveillance. Expression of immune checkpoint molecules was enriched in high-risk OED and further increased in early stage OSCC. Seventy percent of high-risk OED displayed a T cell-inflamed phenotype histology suggesting that they might be responsive to anti-PD-1 immunoprevention. Other immunoprevention strategies are required for the 30% of high-risk OED are not immune-enriched. Overall, our data point the way for new approaches to non-surgical management of OED.

• Dynamic N6-methyladenosine Epitranscriptomic Landscape in Lung Adenocarcinoma

  Systematically evaluate the global effect of dysregulated m6A regulators on the m6A epitranscriptome in patient tumors, and identify prognostic m6A markers by linking with patients' clinicopathological and outcome information.

• Genomic characterization of retinoblastoma (targeted sequencing)

  Retinoblastoma is the most frequent intraocular malignancy in children, originating from a maturing cone precursor in the developing retina. Little is known on the molecular basis underlying the biological and clinical behavior of this cancer. Here, using multi-omics data, we demonstrate the existence of two retinoblastoma subtypes. Subtype 1, of earlier onset, includes most of the heritable forms. It harbors few genetic alterations other than the initiating RB1 inactivation and corresponds to differentiated tumors expressing mature cone markers. By contrast, subtype 2 tumors harbor frequent recurrent genetic alterations including MYCN-amplification. They express markers of less differentiated cone together with neuronal/ganglion cell markers with marked inter- and intra-tumor heterogeneity. The cone dedifferentiation in subtype 2 is associated with stemness features including low immune and interferon response, E2F and MYC/MYCN activation and a higher propensity for metastasis. The recognition of these two subtypes, one maintaining a cone-differentiated state, and the other, more aggressive, associated with cone dedifferentiation and expression of neuronal markers, opens up important biological and clinical perspectives for retinoblastomas. In this study, we performed targeted sequencing of the exonic regions of RB1, BCOR and ARID1A on 37 samples from the series of 102 retinoblastomas. Among them, 23 samples were not subjected to whole-exome sequencing, and 14 samples have the whole-exome sequencing data (deposited in EGAS00001005248).

• Whole-transcriptome sequencing of hepatocellular carcinoma biopsies (TACE study)

  We performed a transcriptomic analysis of hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs) and paired non-tumor biopsies to identify predictive biomarkers for response to transarterial chemoembolization (TACE). We identified several transcripts which are predictive of response to TACE.

• The genomic landscape of early stage ovarian high grade serous carcinoma

  To determine whether early-stage ovarian high grade serous carcinoma (HGSC) represents a distinct genomic entity, we collected samples from 43 patients with stage IA-IIA HGSC to identify potential differences in short genomic variants and copy number aberrations, and compared them to a cohort of 52 late-stage (stage IIIC-IV) cases. We found no significant differences in somatic mutations or focal copy number alterations between early-stage and late-stage cohorts. There was, however, a significant difference in both ploidy and copy number signature exposure between early and late-stage samples, with higher ploidy and signature 4 exposure in late-stage cases. Unsupervised hierarchical clustering revealed three clusters, which were prognostic. Together, our data suggest that early and late-stage HGSC share fundamental genomic features, but that late- stage disease appears distinct from early-stage, with evidence of whole genome duplication that may provide evolutionary benefit.

• RNA-seq on neuroblastoma PDX model COG-N-519 treated with control miR-1283 and test miR-99b-5p mimics

  COG-N-519 primary neuroblastoma cells were innoculated by subcutaneous injection into NSG mice. When tumours reached a size of 100-200mm3 miRNAs conjugated to nanoparticles were injected intratumourally every 2 days for 1 week. 24 hr after the last injection, snap frozen tumour tissue was harvested for RNA extraction and RNA-seq analysis.

• Genomic abnormalities of TP53 define distinct risk groups of paediatric B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma

  TP53 alterations are associated with adverse outcome in many malignancies; however, whilst common in paediatric B-NHL, their utility as a risk classifier in this setting is unknown. We evaluated the clinical significance of TP53 abnormalities (mutations, deletion and/or copy number neutral loss of heterozygosity) in a large UK paediatric B-NHL cohort (n=95) and determined their impact on survival.
