• Cell-free DNA analysis reveals POLR1D-mediated resistance to bevacizumab in colorectal cancer

  Bevacizumab is an approved anti-angiogenic drug for patients with metastasized colorectal cancer (mCRC) targeting VEGF. The survival benefit of anti-VEGF therapy in mCRC patients is limited to a few months and acquired resistance mechanisms are greatly unknown. Using plasma DNA, we studied the evolution of tumor genomes in a cohort of patients with mCRC (n=150) and observed a recurrent focal amplification (8.7% of cases) on chromosome 13q12.2. Analysis of TCGA data (n=619) suggested an association with later stages, which we confirmed by longitudinal plasma analyses. We defined the minimally amplified region and studied the mechanistic consequences of copy number gain of the involved genes. The amplification of one gene, POLR1D, impacted cell proliferation, resulting in upregulation of VEGFA, an important regulator of angiogenesis which has been implicated in the resistance to bevacizumab. In several patients, we observed the emergence of this 13q12.2 amplicon under bevacizumab treatment, which was invariably associated with evolution of therapy resistance. Hence, we describe a novel resistance mechanism against a widely applied treatment in mCRC patients which will impact clinical management

• What is the cBio Portal

  EGA cBioPortal What is the EGA cBioPortal? EGA hosts a dedicated cBioPortal instance that enables authorized researchers to explore and visualize selected cancer datasets archived at EGA. Data submitters can also contribute cancer datasets to be made available through the portal. The platform provides interactive tools to analyse genomic and clinical data once access has been granted by the relevant Data Access Committee (DAC). How to find and access an EGA cBioPortal Dataset 1. Register as an EGA user 2. Go to the dataset page of interest. You can use the Search function to find datasets available in cBioPortal. If the dataset is available on the EGA cBioPortal Instance, the cBioPortal icon will be displayed on the dataset page, as shown below: On the dataset page, you will find information about access requirements. For more details, please visit how to request access. 3. Once access has been granted Go to the EGA cBioPortal instance and log in with your EGA user accountThe approved dataset will be listed in cBioPortalSelect the dataset to start exploring the data What you can do in cBioPortal The EGA cBioPortal is designed for interactive exploration and visualization of controlled-access cancer datasets, including: Visualising genomic alterationsAnalysing mutation patternsFiltering by clinical attributesComparing molecular profilesGenerating plots and summaries Important Notes Datasets are only visible in cBioPortal after DAC approvalAccess requests must always be submitted through the EGA website If you encounter any issues gaining access to a dataset, please contact EGA Support.If your question is related to the cBioPortal features, please reach out to: cbioportal@googlegroups.com. The EGA Helpdesk does not support this platform. How to link a dataset to the EGA cBioPortal instance during a submission STEP 1 – cBioPortal File Upload to EGA Files must be uploaded to the SFTP INBOX. The supported cBioPortal file types are: Raw data (e.g., VCF files)cBioPortal-specific formats (e.g., MAF files) STEP 2 – Register the cBioPortal dataset in the Submitter Portal Register the cBioPortal files in an analysis objectRegister a dataset with the title “cBioPortal Metadata” and include the analysis and nothing else Please note that cBioPortal is not directly supported by the EGA Helpdesk. For questions about the platform, please visit the cBioPortal website or contact the cBioPortal support team at cbioportal@googlegroups.com. The EGA does not support this platform.

• Development of actionable molecular targets and/or biomarkers for prognostication and patient stratification in gynecological cancer based on whole-exome sequencing and epigenomic analysis

  We collected 187 samples of normal and primary tumor tissues in 69 cases of endometrial carcinoma. The purpose of this study is to develop actionable molecular targets and/or biomarkers for prognostication and patient stratification.

• 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.

• Myeloproliferative_Neoplasms__MPN__Targeted_Gene_Screen

  Pulldown experiments will be performed on a number of patients with Myeloproliferative Neoplasms (MPN). The pulldown will be a bespoke design targeting known mutations, this pulldown will be sequenced and analysed to inform prevalence of mutations and to inform to the possibility of use as a diagnostic tool.

• Mutant_clone_mapping_in_normal_oesophagus

  We will use targeted exome sequencing to examine normal appearing epithelium and whole exome and whole genome sequencing of microdissected clones identified by immunostaining Some of the samples will be of low DNA concentration and therefore may require extra rounds of amplification during library prep.
