• A somatic reference standard for cancer genome sequencing with COLO829

  Identification of somatic alterations in cancer has become feasible with the massive adoption of next generation sequencing. However, due to variability in sequencing and informatics pipelines, a common somatic reference is needed. We thus performed paired whole genome sequencing of a metastatic melanoma cell line (COLO829) and a matched lymphoblastoid line (COLO829BL) across three institutions (TGen, Illumina, Genome Sciences Centre at the British Columbia Cancer Agency). We performed a meta-analysis of all data, in combination with the originally reported analysis of these cell lines by Pleasance et al (PMID: 20016485), and report a somatic reference standard based on consensus events. DNA extractions, library preparation, sequencing, and analysis were separately performed at each site. Results were compiled with sequence data previously generated for the cell lines to identify true positive variants, collectively representing a somatic reference standard. Overall, common somatic events include point mutations, small insertion/deletions, and genes affected by concurrent copy number changes. We additionally show divergence of somatic mutations in COLO829 associated with differences in cell line lineage. We present this reference to the community as a standard for enabling interpretation and identification of somatic mutations across institutions and analytical pipelines.

• Nanopore_and_Illumina_sequencing_of_human_glioblastomas

  Liquid biopsy analysis refers to methods designed to detect tumour-specific material (e.g., circulating tumour cells or tumour DNA) in body fluids, such as urine or blood samples. A widely-used liquid biopsy approach consists of genotyping the circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) through sequencing of plasma/serum DNA. Although useful in the context of metastatic disease (where the concentration of ctDNA is high), current liquid biopsy technologies show limited sensitivity of detection for the early detection of cancer, and low specificity, as cancer-related mutations accumulate in healthy tissues as part of the ageing process, thus making it difficult to distinguish these from tumour mutations, and because sequencing errors and true mutations show overlapping profiles. Therefore, developing liquid biopsy protocols with increased sensitivity and specificity represents an urgent clinical need. Here we harness extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA) elements, which are circular DNA structures physically separated from the chromosomes of up to several Mbp long pervasive in human cancers, for liquid biopsy analysis. In this pilot study we will focus on the analysis of glioblastomas, because there is strong evidence for the presence of eccDNA in these tumour types, and because developing liquid biopsy approaches for brain tumours to reduce the invasiveness of brain tumour biopsies remains an unmet clinical need.

• Acral melanoma targeted exome sequencing study (UCSF)

  Acral melanoma affects world populations irrespective of skin color. It has comparatively few single nucleotide mutations, but exhibits genomic instability characterized by structural rearrangements and amplifications. As acral melanoma harbors BRAF (GeneID:673) mutations at low frequencies, we searched for alternative therapeutic targets. We performed targeted deep sequencing of cancer-related genes on 37 acral melanomas and identified point mutations, structural rearrangements and copy number alterations.

• Spatial transcriptome analysis for elucidating progression of early lung adenocarcinoma

  In this study, we performed spatial transcriptome analysis of adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS) and minimally invasive adenocarcinoma (MIA) to identify molecular events which occur during progression of ealry lung adenocarcinoma. For the analysis, we used cancer tissues which were precisely classified by Noguchi classification. Using the obtained data, we elucidated key molecular changes during tumor cell progression and their associated microenvironment statuses.

• Myelodysplastic_Syndrome_Exome_Sequnecing

  Cancer is driven by mutation. Illumina GA massively parallel sequencing technology will be applied to Agilent exome hybridisation capture libraries and total genomic paired-end libraries. Bespoke algorithms are being developed to identify the somatically acquired structural variants, point mutations, insertions and deletions in these samples. This project will give unprecedented insights into mutational processes, cellular repair pathways and gene networks associated with Myelodysplastic Syndrome development.

• Diverse modes of genomic alterations in hepatocellular carcinoma

  Hepatocellular carcinoma is the most prevalent type of liver cancer. We intended to study the genomic landscape of this disease. We conducted whole-genome, exome and transcriptome sequencing for 42 patients. We show diverse modes in which the HCC genome is affected in these patients, including well-known and novel mutations, structural variations, and Hepatitis B-virus integration into the genome.
