• Validation_for_human_early_embryonic_substitutions_

  PCR and MiSeq validation for early embryonic substitution candidates from 400 Breast cancer patients

  Study EGAS00001001218

• Acute_Lymphoblastic_Leukemia_Sequencing

  Agilent whole exome hybridisation capture will be performed on genomic DNA derived from 50 Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia samples and matched normal DNA from the same patients. Three lanes of Illumina GA sequencing will be performed on the resulting 100 exome libraries and mapped build 37 of the human reference genome to facilitate the identification of novel cancer genes. In addition, 500bp, NO_PCR total genomic libraries will be prepared from the same samples and five lanes of Illumina GA sequencing will be analysed to characterise genome wide, somatically acquired structural variation.

• Multiple_Malignancy_Familial_Comparison

  Patient (who has had multiple malignancies) has previously been found to harbour a pathogenic p53 variant which is probably mosaic. This finding is based on exome sequencing performed elsewhere. In this study we will resequence the locus in question to ascertain whether the variant is indeed mosaic.

  Study EGAS00001000333

• Matched_Ovarian_Cancer_Sequencing

  Genomic libraries (500 bps) will be generated from total genomic DNA derived from 15 ovarian cancer samples and subjected to total of eight lanes of 37 bp, paired end sequencing on the llumina GA. Paired reads will be mapped to build 37 of the human reference genome to facilitate the generation of genome wide copy number information, and the identification of novel rearranged cancer genes and gene fusions.

• Monotherapy_Breast_Cancer

  These samples are from locally advanced breast cancers that have been treated with epirubicin monotherapy before surgery. We will sequence some samples from patients with good response to the therapy and some with poor response to the therapy.

  Study EGAS00001000165

• Matched_Pair_Cancer_Cell_line_Whole_Genomes

  We propose to definitively characterise the somatic genetics of 29 matched pair cell lines through generation of comprehensive catalogues of somatic mutations by high coverage genome sequencing.

  Study EGAS00001000160

• Osteosarcoma_Exome_Sequencing

  Agilent whole exome hybridisation capture will be performed on genomic DNA derived from 50 osteosarcoma cancers and matched normal DNA from the same patients. Three lanes of Illumina GA sequencing will be performed on the resulting 100 exome libraries and mapped to build 37 of the human reference genome to facilitate the identification of novel cancer genes.

  Study EGAS00001000163

• Transcriptome_Sequencing_of_Cancer_Cell_Lines

  In this study we will sequence the transcriptome of Verified Cancer Cell lines. This will be married up to whole exome and whole genome sequencing data to establish a full catalog of the variations and mutations found.

• Exome_sequencing_of_blastic_plasmacytoid_dendritic_cell_neoplasms

  Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) is a rare and aggressive haematological malignancy derived from precursors of plasmacytoid dendritic cells. Due to the rarity of BPDCNs our knowledge of their molecular pathogenesis was until recently confined to observations describing reccurent chromosomal deletions involving chromosomes 5q, 12p, 13q, 6q, 15q and 9. A recent publication went on to delineate the common deleted regions using aCGH and demonstrated that these centred around known tumour suppressor genes including CDKN2A/B (9p21.3), RB1 (12p13.2-14.3), CDKN1B (13q11-q12) and IKZF1 (7p12.2).These mutations are found recurrently in several different cancers and in most cases are thought to be involved in tumour progression rather than initiation. However, the well-defined nature and cellular ontogeny of these neoplasms suggests strongly that they share one or a few characteristic mutations as has been demonstrated for other uncommon but well-defined neoplasms such as Hairy Cell Leukemia (BRAF) and ovarian Granulosa Cell tumours (FOXL2).

• 20_Matched_Pair_Breast_Cancer_Genomes

  We propose to definitively characterise the somatic genetics of 20 breast cancers through generation of comprehensive catalogues of somatic mutations by high coverage genome sequencing coupled with integrated transcriptomic data.
