• ABIS_1_MeDIP-seq

  We investigated changes in whole genome DNA-methylation in a group of 48 healthy five-year-old children differentiated by their hair cortisol levels. By combining this novel biomarker for chronic stress with methylated DNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (MeDIP-seq), we found that high cortisol were associated with a genome-wide decrease in DNA-methylation targeted to specific zinc finger transcription factor binding sites, repetitive elements and genes important for neurodevelopment and calcium transport. Large scale hypomethylation of repetitive regions, as well as a deficient calcium transport, have been reported in many stress related diseases, as well as in many cancers and biological aging. Thus our findings may aid in our understanding of how susceptibility to these diseases develops.

• Automated machine-learning approach for next generation profiling of sequence alterations, mutation burden, microsatellite instability, and structural variants in human cancers

  Sequence and structural alterations together with tumor mutation burden (TMB) and microsatellite instability (MSI) have been identified as biomarkers for the determination of response to targeted and immune checkpoint inhibitor therapies. However, widespread clinical adoption of these biomarkers has historically been limited due to barriers such as evidence of clinical utility and reimbursement. We have developed 2.2 Mb targeted NGS system and an automated machine-learning analysis approach (PGDx elio™ tissue complete, ETC) that has been FDA cleared for examination of 500+ cancer-related genes and 68 mononucleotide repeats for identification of sequence and structural alterations, TMB, and MSI in solid cancers in a clinical setting. We designed and trained this approach using sequence data from 4,174 cancers and >124,000 in silico alterations and evaluated the methodology in >2,550 tumor or non-cancerous normal samples. Independent analyses of ETC sequence changes in 440 formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) tumor or cell line samples using MSK-IMPACT™, FoundationOne®, and ddPCR revealed a positive percent agreement (PPA) >97% with high sensitivity as low as 3% mutant allele fraction. We observed high concordance between panel-wide and whole-exome TMB for 307 pan-cancer FFPE tumors (Pearson r=0.95, p < 0.0001) using samples with ≥20% tumor cellularity. Comparison of the mutation context and repeat-based MSI approach in ETC with a multiplex MSI PCR assay in 223 samples revealed a PPA of 99% and negative predictive agreement (NPA) >99%. We confirmed the accuracy and precision of TMB and MSI measurements across three independent laboratories (CV of <5% and average PPA >99%, respectively). Finally, evaluation of amplifications and translocations against DNA and RNA-based approaches exhibited >98% NPA and PPA of 86% and 82% respectively. These results demonstrate high analytical performance for determination of sequence and structural changes, TMB, and MSI using a targeted NGS panel and provide a scalable and facile approach for evaluating these biomarkers in a clinical laboratory.

• Exceptional Responders Initiative

  The Exceptional Responders Initiative is a pilot study to investigate the underlying molecular factors driving exceptional treatment responses of cancer patients to drug therapies. Study researchers will examine molecular profiles of tumors from patients either enrolled in a clinical trial for an investigational drug(s) and who achieved an exceptional response relative to other trial participants, or who achieved an exceptional response to a non-investigational chemotherapy. An exceptional response is defined as achievement of either a complete response or a partial response for at least 6 months duration in a trial or treatment where the overall response rate is < 10%. The hope is to discover underlying molecular features that can be further investigated and may eventually predict benefit from a given drug or class of drugs for a particular patient. This pilot project will successfully characterize approximately 100 cases of tumor tissue and, when available, case-matched germline DNA. All samples will undergo whole exome sequencing, and cases with sufficient nucleic acids will undergo additional analyses (e.g. whole genome sequencing, mRNA-sequencing, mi RNA sequencing, promoter methylation analysis, SNP etc). Each case will be annotated with demographic and clinical information, along with follow-up information minimally sufficient to correlate molecular profiles with response. Both retrospective and prospective collections will be considered. The project will also accept sequencing data and clinical data from patients who have had sequencing performed outside of this project. All data will be de-identified and placed in a controlled access database so other investigators may use them for additional insights. Clinically annotated tissue specimens meeting the criteria will be provided by groups participating in the Exceptional Cases Initiative to a Biospecimen Core Resource (BCR), which will perform quality control on the tissues, and will use a standard operating procedure to isolate nucleic acids. The nucleic acids will be shipped to a sequencing center to perform whole exome sequencing and analysis. These findings will be made available to the broader cancer research community in a controlled access database.

• Identification of Somatic Changes in Tumors from Fanconi Anemia Patients

  This study focused on the identification of genomic signatures present in tumors from Fanconi anemia patients. Fanconi anemia is a rare hereditary disease caused by defects in DNA interstrand crosslink repair. The primary patient phenotypes are bone marrow failure and cancer predisposition. We concentrated on squamous cell carcinomas and used whole genome Illumina sequencing (22 tumor samples and 12 normal samples) , whole exome sequencing (37 tumor samples and 33 normal samples), PacBio long-read whole-genome (nine tumor and four normal samples),10X linked-read whole-genome sequencing, 10x single-cell/nuclei 3’ RNA sequencing (three tumor samples), 10x Visium spatial transcriptomics (one tumor sample), EPIC 850K methylation array (six samples), and bulk RNAseq (six tumor samples) to identify somatic changes present in tumors. The study aimed to identify changes that drive tumorigenesis in Fanconi anemia, give insight into the early development and aggressive nature of these tumors, and suggest therapeutic avenues for these patients. Another goal was to compare the genomic changes identified in tumors from Fanconi anemia patients with sporadic head and neck cancers. This study demonstrated that the tumors from Fanconi anemia individuals are generally not driven by HPV. Instead, they acquire mutations in the p53 tumor suppressor. The main characteristic of the tumors is the presence of a high number of structural variants in the form of small deletions, unbalanced translocations, and fold-back inversions, which often form complex rearrangements. These rearrangements result in amplifications and deletions of a multitude of oncogenes and tumor suppressors, respectively. The study also shows that lack of the Fanconi anemia DNA repair pathway leads to an epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in a mouse model and in human samples that may influence the behavior of tumors in Fanconi anemia. Finally, comparing genomic changes in Fanconi anemia and sporadic tumors of the head and neck, we propose that the structural variants present in sporadic cancer result in a functional deficiency of the Fanconi anemia DNA repair pathway.
