• Profiling RNA Translation in Pediatric Medulloblastoma

  This study provides RNA-sequencing and ribosome profiling data for patient-derived cell lines and patient tissue samples for children with medulloblastoma. Ribosome profiling is a variant protocol of RNA-sequencing that directly sequences ribosome-bound RNA fragments only. Associated RNA-seq and Ribo-seq data obtained separately for some cancer cell lines can be found on the NCBI SRA as PRJNA957428. Samples were processed for poly-A mRNA sequencing using the Roche Kapa Kit. Ribosome profiling was performed as described in the manuscript referenced below (Hofman et al.) and based on the article by McGlincy et al., Methods (2017). Ribo-seq data were analyzed for sample quality using RiboseQC (Calviello, Nat Struct Mol Biol, 2020). These data were used to quantify P-sites of open reading frames. RNAseq and ribo-seq data were integrated and compared to determine translational efficiency values using TPM (Ribo-seq) over TPM (RNA-seq) as the metric. Ribo-seq data on 14 samples and RNAseq data on 21 samples derived from 16 fresh-frozen surgical samples for medulloblastoma and 5 autopsy samples are available through dbGaP. A second cohort of 4 medulloblastoma samples (RNAseq, Ribo-seq) related to this study can be found on the EGA at EGAS00001007426.

• MAESTRO-Pool Enables Highly Parallel and Specific Mutation-Enrichment Sequencing for Minimal Residual Disease Detection in Cohort Studies

  MAESTRO-Pool builds upon the technology MAESTRO (Minor Allele Enriched Sequencing Through Recognition Oligonucleotides) by pooling tumor-specific MAESTRO probes from multiple patients and applying these to all samples from all patients. In this study, MAESTRO-Pool was applied to a cohort of 9 melanoma patients where 98 plasma samples were screened for 22,333 mutations. Additionally, a new dynamic minimal residual disease (MRD) caller was used to estimate the likelihood of MRD detection based on the number mutations and cell-free DNA molecules interrogated which allowed each bespoke MRD test to be properly calibrated against false detection. These developments led to sensitive detection in patient-matched samples down to 0.78 parts per million (ppm) while limiting false detection in negative controls to 1/784 (tumor fraction=2.7 ppm). MAESTRO-Pool and the dynamic MRD caller enable a unique blend of sensitivity, specificity, and efficiency, which will improve the ability to detect MRD.The data contained in this repository consists of:Tumor and normal whole genome sequencing data used to call patient-specific tumor mutations and design the MRD Tracker and MAESTRO-Pool fingerprintsMAESTRO-Pool data (enriched duplex sequencing via hybrid capture) of tumor gDNA, normal gDNA and cfDNA MRD Tracker data (duplex sequencing via hybrid capture) of tumor gDNA, normal gDNA and cfDNA

• BPH Tissues for Cell Culture and Analysis - Spatial Transcriptomics Identifies Candidate Stromal Drivers of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

  The study goal was to apply spatial transcriptomics to identify candidate stromal drivers of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Laser microdissection (LCM) with RNA-seq of the stroma adjacent to hyperplastic and budding BPH ducts identified secreted factors including IGF1 and CXCL13. Single‐cell RNA sequencing (scRNA‐seq) revealed their co-expression from BPH fibroblasts. Additional studies sought to define similarities to embryonic prostate development, as well as therapeutic applications. Subjects were those who underwent prostatectomy for prostate or bladder cancer, with concurrent BPH, and who consented to use of surplus tissue for research studies. LCM/RNA-seq studies included 5 patients, and scRNA-seq studies included 1 patient. Phenotypic data submitted to this study include patient age, sex, prostate size, and international prostate symptom score (IPSS). Sequencing was done on an Illumina NovaSeq 6000 (LCM/RNAseq) and Illumina HiSeq X-Ten (scRNA-seq). The data processing pipeline utilized Kallisto (LCM/RNA-seq) and Cell Ranger (scRNA-seq). Data submitted are raw sequencing (Fastq) files.

• A Missense SNP in the Tumor Suppressor SETD2 Reduces H3K36me3 and Mitotic Spindle Integrity in Drosophila

  While examining DNA from renal cell carcinoma (RCC) patients we observed a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP; rs58906143,chr3:47163422 C→G (hg19); E902Q*) within SETD2 that was overrepresented in kidney cancer patients compared to control patients. This original study utilized directed sequencing of 14 genes. In an expanded study using a Taqman assay to study the specific SNP, a G allele was found in 72/493 cases (14.6%) and 24/356 (6.7%) controls. Analysis by ancestry revealed that there was there was a G allele in 50/119 (42.0%) cases and 21/71 (29.6%) controls in patients with African Ancestry while there was a G allele in 19/335 cases (5.7%) and 3/269 (1.1%) controls in patients with European Ancestry. These differences did not reach statistical significance. Concurrently, we studied the functional effect of this SNP in a Drosophila model. The homologous amino acid substitution at E741Q reduces H3K36me3 levels which could be rescued by wild type Set2. Additionally, the mutation resulted in significant defects in spindle morphogenesis, consistent with a role for SETD2 in alpha-tubulin methylation during mitosis. Data available through dbGAP include the 14 gene sequence files of 52 control and 128 RCC patients, the results of Taqman SNP (rs58906143) analysis in text files for 221 controls and 357 RCC patients, and compiled phenotype data including age and assigned race. Due to data use limitations, genotyping data for 8 RCC patients and 83 controls as well as GWAS data for ancestry determination will not be available on dbGaP, but will be made available on request.

• Germline Genome Sequencing from Patients with Early-Onset Merkel Cell Carcinoma

  Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a rare neuroendocrine skin cancer associated with advanced age. Approximately 5% of cases are early-onset MCC, occurring in individuals younger than 50 years. This study used genome sequencing to identify germline risk factors among patients with early-onset MCC. The available data in the database of Genotypes and Phenotypes (dbGaP) includes genome sequencing of peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) DNA from 37 patients with early-onset MCC (age ATM = 2, BRCA1 = 2, BRCA2 = 1, TP53 = 1, and MAGT1 = 1).

• Spatial Transcriptomics Reveals Discrete Tumor Microenvironments and Autocrine Loops Within Ovarian Cancer Subclones

  Ovarian masses from patients with high grade serous ovarian carcinoma undergoing debulking surgery were subjected to spatial transcriptomics profiling using the 10x Genomics Visium (fresh frozen) platform. Copy number inference using inferCNV predicted the presence of subclones with mutually exclusive copy number alterations (CNAs) in 5 of the 8 patient samples studied. In one patient, 3 subclones were predicted. For this patient sample, a serial section of the same tumor was used to microdissect regions corresponding to each of these subclones, and a 'normal' region predicted to contain only fibroblasts and no tumor cells. These microdissected regions were processed for low pass whole genome sequencing (WGS) and CNAs recorded using ichorCNA. An oral biopsy lacking tumor cells from an unrelated donor was used as a negative control for CNA inference. The CNAs predicted by inferCNV for the three subclones were validated by the low pass WGS and no CNAs were observed in the normal region containing fibroblasts.

• The impact of mutational clonality in predicting the response to anti-PD-L1/PD-L1 in advanced urothelial cancer

  The advent of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) has radically changed the management and therapeutic treatment landscape for patients with cancer. It has been shown that the use of these inhibitors can result in long-term complete remissions even in cases with advanced stages of the disease. However, only a small fraction of patients respond to the treatment. A better understanding of which factors could drive this clinical benefit is fundamental to building more accurate predictive biomarkers and developing alternative therapeutic options for patients who are unlikely to benefit. In order to address this issue, we have generated and analyzed whole exome sequencing (WES) and RNA sequencing (RNASeq) data from a cohort of metastatic urothelial carcinoma patients (N = 27) treated with ICI such as anti-PD-(L)1 monoclonal antibodies.

• Single-cell RNA-sequencing reveals that glioblastoma recapitulates a normal neurodevetlopmental hierarchy

  We discovered a conserved neural tri- lineage cancer hierarchy centered around glial progenitor-like cells. We also found that this progenitor population contains the majority of the cancer’s cycling cells, and, using RNA velocity, is often the originator of the other cell types. Finally, we show that this hierarchal map can be used to identify therapeutic targets specific to progenitor cancer stem cells. Our analyses show that normal brain development reconciles glioblastoma development, suggests a possible origin for glioblastoma hierarchy, and helps to identify cancer stem cell-specific targets.

• Serial TERT rearrangement breakpoint quantification in circulating tumor DNA enables minimal residual disease monitoring in patients with neuroblastoma

  Approximately 30% of high-risk neuroblastomas harbor genomic TERT rearrangements at diagnosis, resulting in high TERT transcript levels and active telomerase. Combined with mutations in the RAS/MAPK/ALK signaling transduction network, these patients have a dismal prognosis. Our objective was to establish a liquid biopsy-based monitoring strategy for this particularly vulnerable patient subgroup, for whom no in-time molecular diagnostic tools exist to date. Detection and quantification of TERT rearrangement breakpoints in cell-free tumor DNA circulating in peripheral blood and bone marrow plasma from patients with TERT-driven neuroblastoma improved minimal residual disease monitoring and early relapse detection in individual patients. TERT rearrangement breakpoints, as a single marker or combined with mutations in the RAS/MAPK/ALK signaling transduction network, can be reliably analyzed from 1ng DNA using droplet digital PCR assays fit for clinical routine use. TERT rearrangement breakpoints are reflected in cell-free tumor DNA and can serve as robust biomarkers for disease activity.
