• Whole exome sequencing of patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma receiving chemoradiotherapy

  We performed multi-region whole exome sequencing (WES) of pre-treatment and recurrent esophageal cancer receiving chemoradiotherapy in order to characterize clonal evolution of treatment resistant clones. Furthermore, additional solitary pre-treatment tumor samples were subjected to WES to detect biomarkers predicting clinical outcome.

• PanCancer genome analysis in 5143 Japanese cancer patients

  This study aimed to establish the Japanese Cancer Genome Atlas (JCGA) using data from fresh frozen tumor tissues obtained from 5143 Japanese cancer patients, including those with colorectal cancer (31.6%), lung cancer (16.5%), gastric cancer (10.8%) and other cancers (41.1%). The results are part of a single-center study called ���High-tech Omics-based Patient Evaluation��� or ���Project HOPE��� conducted at the Shizuoka Cancer Center, Japan. All DNA samples and most RNA samples were analyzed using whole-exome sequencing, cancer gene panel sequencing, fusion gene panel sequencing and microarray gene expression profiling.

• Whole-exome sequencing of Helicobacter pylori-uninfected normal gastric gland

  Recent studies showed that somatic mutations accumulate in normal tissues with age; however, mutation accumulation in the Helicobacter pylori-uninfected normal gastric mucosa has not been reported. A total of 18 biopsied gastric mucosa were obtained from nine subjects without Helicobacter pylori-infection or gastric cancer. Gastric epithelia were manually dissociated from the lamina propria. Subsequently, single glands were picked up under a stereomicroscope. Genomic DNA isolated from each gland was subjected to whole-exome sequencing.

• Exome-wide mutation analysis of cell-free DNA to simultaneously monitor the full spectrum of cancer treatment outcomes

  Purpose: Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) offers a non-invasive approach to monitor cancer. Here we develop a method using whole-exome sequencing (WES) of cfDNA for simultaneously monitoring the full spectrum of cancer treatment outcomes, including MRD, recurrence, evolution, and second primary cancers. Experimental Design: Three simulation datasets were generated from 26 cancer patients to benchmark the detection performance of MRD/recurrence and second primary cancers. For further validation, cfDNA samples (n=76) from cancer patients (n=35) with six different cancer types were used for performance validation during various treatments.Results: We present a cfDNA-based cancer monitoring method, named cfTrack. Taking advantage of the broad genome coverage of WES data, cfTrack can sensitively detect MRD and cancer recurrence by integrating signals across known clonal tumor mutations of a patient. In addition, cfTrack detects tumor evolution and second primary cancers by de novo identifying emerging tumor mutations. A series of machine learning and statistical denoising techniques are applied to enhance the detection power. On the simulation data, cfTrack achieved an average AUC of 99% on the validation dataset and 100% on the independent dataset in detecting recurrence in samples with tumor fraction ≥0.05%. In addition, cfTrack yielded an average AUC of 88% in detecting second primary cancers in samples with tumor fraction ≥0.2%. On real data, cfTrack accurately monitors tumor evolution during treatment, which cannot be accomplished by previous methods.Conclusion: Our results demonstrated that cfTrack can sensitively and specifically monitor the full spectrum of cancer treatment outcomes using exome-wide mutation analysis of cfDNA.

• Molecular Characterization for Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma (NPC)

  Total RNA was isolated from 50 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) specimens using the RecoverAll Total Nucleic Acid Isolation kit (Ambion). Tumor RNA libraries were prepared with 200ng RNA using the Illumina TruSeq Stranded Total RNA kit with Ribo-Zero Gold, and sequenced with >80 million 100 bp paired-end reads.

• Multi-focal genomic dissection of synchronous primary and metastatic tissue from de novo metastatic prostate cancer

  De novo metastatic prostate cancer is highly aggressive, but the paucity of routinely-collected tissue in this setting has hindered genomic stratification and jeopardizes precision oncology efforts. Here, we leveraged a rare study of surgical intervention in 43 de novo metastatic prostate cancers to assess somatic genotype across 607 synchronous primary and metastatic tissue foci plus circulating tumor DNA. Intra-prostate heterogeneity was pervasive and impacted clinically-relevant genes, resulting in frequent discordance between select primary-restricted foci and synchronous metastases. Additional complexity was driven in several instances by polyclonal metastatic seeding from the reservoir of phylogenetically-related primary populations. When simulating standard clinical practice relying on a single tissue focus, genomic heterogeneity plus highly variable per-sample tumor fraction caused false genotyping of dominant disease. However, in silico modeling demonstrated that analysis of multiple biopsy cores can rescue misassigned somatic genotypes. Our results define the relationship between synchronous treatment-naive primary and metastatic lesions in de novo metastatic prostate cancer and provide a framework for implementing genomics-guided patient management.
