• Bone_Cancer___Rare_Types_Whole_Genome

  We propose to definitively characterise the somatic genetics of a selection of rare bone cancers through generation of comprehensive catalogues of somatic mutations by high coverage genome sequencing.

  Study EGAS00001000501

• The polarity and specificity of antiviral T lymphocyte responses determine susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2 infection in cancer patients and healthy individuals.

  The goal of this study was to identify immune correlates of clinical protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection.

• sWGS data of Pap test smears and tumor tissues

  Shallow whole-genome sequencing data divided into three groups: - sWGS data from Pap smears of patients with confirmed high grade serous ovarian cancer - sWGS data from matched tumor tissue (at diagnosis) from the same patients - sWGS data from Pap tests smears of healthy women

• Timing the Philadelphia chromosome and trajectory to chronic myeloid leukaemia

  We sequence >1000 whole genomes from 9 patients with CML, providing the largest sequencing dataset for this cancer. We reconstruct phylogenetic trees using somatic mutations and infer BCR::ABL1 timing and tumour growth rates. We correlate mutation landscapes and clonal trajectories with clinical features.

• The integrated genomic and immune landscapes of lethal metastatic breast cancer.

  We report on the extensive molecular profiling of multiple individual metastases from 10 warm autopsies of patients with lethal multi-therapy resistant breast cancers.

• 41 CRC Exome bam + 4 CRC paired fastq from EGAS00001002477 study

  This dataset contain 45 pairs of colorectal tumor and adjacent normal tissue. Four of them are from a previous study EGAS00001002477. For each sample a BAM was generated by aligning to GRCh37. Those colorectal cancer all have the MSI phenotype.

• High Grade Serous Ovarian Carcinomas Originate in the Fallopian Tube

  High-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) is the most frequent type of ovarian cancer and has a poor outcome. It has been proposed that fallopian tube cancers may be precursors of HGSOC but evolutionary evidence for this hypothesis has been limited. To provide insights into the origins of HGSOC, we We performed whole-exome sequence and copy number analyses of laser-capture microdissected fallopian tube lesions (p53 signatures, serous tubal intraepithelial carcinomas (STICs), and fallopian tube carcinomas), ovarian cancers, and metastases from nine patients with HGSOC. The majority of tumor-specific sequence and structural alterations in ovarian cancers were present in STICs, including those affecting TP53, BRCA1, BRCA2 or PTEN genes. An eEvolutionary analyseis revealed that p53 signatures and STICs were are the precursors of ovarian carcinoma which in turn gave rise to metastatic lesionsand identify a. In one patient we identified a second STIC as a metastasis in the fallopian tube opposite from the affected ovary. These analyses revealed a window of seven years between the development of a STIC and the initiation of ovarian carcinomas, with development of metastases following rapidly thereafter. Our results provide insights into the etiology of ovarian cancer and have implications for the prevention, early detection and therapeutic intervention of this disease.

• Long-term organoid culture of a small intestinal neuroendocrine tumor

  Gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs) are rare and highly heterogeneous neoplasms whose incidence has markedly increased over the last decades. A grading system based on the tumor cells' proliferation index predicts high-risk for G3 NETs. However, low-to-intermediate grade (G1/G2) NETs have an unpredictable clinical course that varies from indolent to highly malignant. Cultures of human cancer cells enable to perform functional perturbation analyses that are instrumental to enhance our understanding of cancer biology. To date, no tractable and reliable long-term culture of G1/G2 NET has been reported to permit disease modeling and pharmacological screens. Here, we report of the first long-term culture of a G2 metastatic small intestinal NET that preserves the main genetic drivers of the tumor and retains expression patterns of the endocrine cell lineage. Replicating the tissue, this long-term culture showed a low proliferation index, and yet it could be propagated continuously without dramatic changes in the karyotype. The model was readily available for pharmacological screens using targeted agents and as expected, showed low tumorigenic capacity in vivo. Overall, this is the first long-term culture of NETs to faithfully recapitulate many aspects of the original neuroendocrine tumor.

• METABRIC: Data from Batra et al (2021); DNA methylation landscapes of 1538 breast cancers reveal a replication-linked clock, epigenomic instability and cis-regulation

  DNA methylation is aberrant in cancer, but the dynamics, regulatory role and clinical implications of such epigenetic changes are still poorly understood. Here, RRBS-based profiles of 1538 breast tumors and 244 normal breast tissues from the METABRIC cohort are reported, facilitating detailed analysis of DNA methylation within a rich context of genomic, transcriptional, and clinical data. Tumor methylation from immune and stromal signatures are deconvoluted leading to the discovery of a tumor replication-linked clock with genome-wide methylation loss in non-CpG island sites. Unexpectedly, methylation in most tumor CpG islands follows two replication-independent processes of gain (MG) or loss (ML) that we term epigenomic instability. Epigenomic instability is correlated with tumor grade and stage, TP53 mutations and poorer prognosis. After controlling for these global trans-acting trends, as well as for X-linked dosage compensation effects, cis-specific methylation and expression correlations are uncovered at hundreds of promoters and over a thousand distal elements. Some of these targeted known tumor suppressors and oncogenes. In conclusion, the study demonstrates that global epigenetic instability can erode cancer methylomes and expose them to localized methylation aberrations in-cis resulting in transcriptional changes seen in tumors.
