• Immune Profiles Study

  This study assesses glioma patient blood methylation longitudinally beginning pre-surgery through other clinically important timepoints. Progression and survival are studied in relation to methylation derived immunologic profiles and other characteristics. For this study, patients scheduled for surgery at University of California San Francisco (UCSF) for a possible newly diagnosed glioma (grades 2-4) or recurrent grade 2/3 glioma were consented and enrolled. Patients had blood collected pre-surgery and, if the pathology results confirm a glioma, every few weeks or months during their treatment (up to 30 total timepoints). Blood immunomethylomic profiles were measured at these timepoints to assess associations with glioma patient outcomes, clinical measures, other known prognostic markers, and imaging characteristics.

• ALLELE Consortium Glioblastoma Project

  Glioblastoma patient samples were sequenced for this project. The purposes of this project are: (1) to establish an umbrella protocol as a mechanism for identifying patients (in the USA and international sites) who agree to the collection, storage, and broad usage of their specimens and ongoing collection, and review of their medical information for the purposes of minimal-risk research and use of such data in clinical trials on which the patient may enroll; (2) to develop operations that facilitate investigator access to the data and/or tissue to conduct research, while minimizing risks to participants and promoting responsible conduct; and (3) to provide the infrastructure for the sharing of de-identified, coded samples, clinical data, and genomic data between participating investigators and institutions. Eligible patients include patients with known or suspected nervous system tumors or other neurologic diseases. Whole exome sequencing from the stated project will be released under this submission.

• A Platform Study of Combination Immunotherapy for the Neoadjuvant and Adjuvant Treatment of Patients with Surgically Resectable Adenocarcinoma of the Pancreas

  This is a single-institutional, randomized, open label platform clinical trial testing various immunotherapy combinations. Patients with newly diagnosed and surgically resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) and scheduled to undergo the Whipple procedure at Johns Hopkins Hospital were eligible to participate in this study. Criteria for determining resectability strictly followed National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines. The study consisted of 6 parts: parts 1-5 constituted the Prime Phase (see below), and part 6 was the Extended Treatment Phase. Part 1: Participants received one cycle of immunotherapy two weeks prior to undergoing the Whipple procedure. Part 2: Subjects underwent the Whipple procedure. Part 3: Subjects received a second cycle of immunotherapy 4-10 weeks following the Whipple procedure (2-4 weeks prior to adjuvant chemoradiation). Part 4: Subjects underwent chemoradiation. Part 5: Subjects received 4 additional 28-day cycles of immunotherapy beginning 1-2 months after completing chemoradiation for a total of six cycles (two before chemoradiation and 4 following chemoradiation). Eligible subjects were randomized to Arms A and B in a 1:1 ratio, stratified up-front by age (≤65, >65). Arm A participants received Cy/GVAX. Arm B participants received the combination of Cy/GVAX and nivolumab. GVAX Vaccine consists of equal numbers (2.5 x 108 each) of Panc 6.03 pcDNA1GM-CSF and Panc 10.05 pcDNA1GM-CSF combined into a single vaccination. Each vaccination consisted of six total intradermal injections. A single intravenous (IV) dose of 200 mg/m2 Cy (CytoxanR) was given one day prior to GVAX. Anti-PD-1 Therapeutic Antibody Nivolumab 480 mg every 4 weeks was administered as an intravenous infusion. The primary objective for Arms A and B was to compare IL17 expression (Th17) in vaccine-induced lymphoid aggregates between resected PDAs from patients treated with the combination of Cy/GVAX and anti-PD-1 blockade antibody vs. the treatment of Cy/GVAX alone. Secondary objectives were to assess the safety, overall survival (OS), and disease free survival (DFS) of patients treated with each of the study drug combinations, and to assess the effects of each of the immunotherapy study drug combinations on PD-L1/PD-1 associated pathways, vaccine-induced immune regulatory signatures, and peripheral and intratumoral antigen specific T cell responses. The exploratory objective was to explore the effects of therapy on tumor and peripheral blood and tumor infiltrating immune cells, and to explore potential molecular determinants of response, progression and disease stability. To these ends, tumor infiltrating immune cells (TIICs) were obtained from surgically resected tumors following the neoadjuvant treatment of the study immunotherapy. TIICs were sorted into CD3+CD4+ T cells, CD3+CD8+ T cells, CD3-CD19+ B cells, and CD3-CD19-CD11b+ myeloid cells by flow cytometry. The sorted immune cell subtype pellets were sent to the commercial vendor (Eurofins) for RNA extraction and sequencing. SMART-seq v4 Ultra Low Input mRNA Sample Prep Kit was used for library preparation with 100bp paired end reads. FASTQ files, that were returned from the vendor, are deposited here.

• Genomic Characterization of Duke Melanoma Brain Metastases

  Previous work has shown that melanoma brain metastases (MBM) have a unique molecular profile compared to extracranial metastases (ECM). Description of the biology of MBM and associations between biological features and clinical outcomes will facilitate the design of rational therapies for patients with MBM. To better characterize the molecular profile of MBM, we conducted whole exome sequencing (WES) and total RNA sequencing on MBM tissues obtained from an independent cohort of 14 patients from Duke University Medical Center. This cohort adds valuable patient samples to the field and enables strengthened investigation of somatic mutations and gene expression profiles within and between cohorts. The mutational landscape and gene expression of MBM from the Duke cohort resembled those previously reported in a previously published dataset of WES and RNA sequencing in MBM and matched ECM tissues from UT MD Anderson Cancer Center (Fischer et al., 2019 30787016). Duke MBM demonstrated similar rates of mutations in genes associated with melanoma, including BRAF, NRAS, and PTEN, as the MD Anderson cohort. Immune populations in MBM were similar between Duke and MD Anderson MBM, though Duke samples demonstrated more resting CD4+ memory T cells. The ratio of M2 to M1 macrophages in the Duke cohort was similar to that of the MD Anderson cohort. In MBM, a higher M2:M1 ratio may contribute to an immune-suppressive tumor microenvironment. Sequencing data and sample attributes from MBM tissues obtained from 14 patients from Duke University Medical Center will be available through dbGaP.

• APOLLO1: Proteogenomic Analysis of Lung Adenocarcinoma

  APOLLO is a proteogenomic study seeking to describe the major genome, transcriptome, proteome and phosphoproteome alterations, subtypes, and molecular predictors of patient outcomes. This study includes 87 lung adenocarcinomas and matched normal tissues from the Lung Cancer Biospecimen Resource Network (https://lungbio.sites.virginia.edu/). Tumor tissues were profiled by whole genome sequencing, transcriptome sequencing, MS-based proteomics and phosphoproteomics, and reverse phase protein arrays. Matched normal tissues were profiled by whole genome sequencing. Clinical and sample data include survival times, patient features, and tumor characteristics.

• Molecular Analysis of Short- Versus Long-Term Survivors of High-Grade Serous Ovarian Carcinoma

  The underlying determinants for long-term survival (LTS, ≥10 years) versus short-term survival (STS, <3 years) of patients diagnosed with high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSC) are largely unknown. The present study sought to identify molecular predictors of LTS for women with HGSC. A cohort of 24 frozen HGSC samples (12 LTS and 12 STS) were collected and analyzed at DNA and RNA levels. Copy number variation and mutation did not indicate large differences between LTS and STS. From RNA-Seq analysis, 11 genes were found to be differentially expressed between the STS and LTS groups (fold change >2; false discovery rate <0.01). In the validation cohort, transmembrane protein 62 (TMEM62) was found to be related to LTS. Our in vitro and in vivo studies demonstrate that restoring TMEM62 may be a novel approach for treatment of HGSC. These findings may have implications for biomarker and intervention strategies to help improve patient outcomes.

• Whole-Genome Sequencing Reveals Complex Genomic Features Underlying Anti-CD19 CAR T-Cell Treatment Failure in Lymphoma

  We performed Whole-Genome Sequencing (WGS) on 100 tumor and matched germline samples from 49 CD19-directed chimeric antigen receptor (CAR-19)-treated diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients. We found that the presence of complex structural variants, APOBEC (apolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme, catalytic polypeptide) mutational signatures, and genomic damage from reactive oxygen species predict CAR-19 resistance. BAM files will be available through dbGaP.

• Genomic Analysis of Nucleic Acid Sequences from Pancreatic Cancer

  Our study aims to perform multi-omics analysis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. We performed dual single-cell RNA sequencing and whole genome sequencing on fresh tumor specimens and dual bulk RNA-sequencing and 16S amplicon sequencing on frozen tumor specimens to identify human and non-human nucleic acid sequences. Additionally, we identified microbial sequences and found that bacterial taxonomic profiles from the same sample strongly correlated across technologies.
