• High volume culture initiating in vitro evolution in neuroblastoma cell lines

  Despite the advent of advanced molecular prognostic tools, it is still difficult to predict the course of disease for cancer patients at the individual level. This lack of predictability is also reflected in many experimental cancer model systems, begging the question of whether certain biological aspects of cancer (eg. growth, evolution etc.) can ever be anticipated or if there remains an inherent unpredictability to cancer, similar to other complex biological systems. We demonstrate by a combination of agent-based mathematical modelling, analysis of patient-derived xenograft systems from multiple cancer types, and in-vitro culture that certain conditions may invoke chaotic fluctuations in the clonal landscape of cancer growth. Our findings indicate that under those conditions, the cancer genome may behave as a complex dynamic system, making its long-term evolution inherently unpredictable.

• International Cancer Proteogenome Consortium (ICPC): Proteogenomics of Early Stage Lung Adenocarcinoma in Taiwan

  Lung cancer in East Asia is characterized by a high percentage of never-smokers with early-onset adenocarcinoma, predominantly with EGFR mutations. To provide an insight into the molecular phenotype of this demographically distinct disease, we have performed a proteogenomics study on a prospectively collected cohort representing early stage lung adenocarcinoma in Taiwan. The distinct mutational profile revealed a high prevalence of the APOBEC mutational signature in early-onset females, implicating differential regulation of APOBEC enzymes and DNA damage pathways, as well as enrichment of mutational signatures congruent with environmental carcinogens over-represented in the genomic location of EGFR. We delineate the proteogenomic hallmarks of tumor progression and propose a proteomics-informed classification that resolves the EGFR mutation heterogeneity associated with survival within the early stages. Functional annotation of the molecular subtypes by protein network analysis highlights candidate biomarkers for patient stratification. Our integrative analysis reveals the molecular architecture of lung cancer in East Asia and enables the path for precision medicine.

• bulk RNAseq from metastatic uveal melanoma tumour biopsies

  Tumour biopsies were obtained from uveal melanoma patients (n = 35) pre and 16 days post treatment with tebentafusp. Biopsies, which were either snap frozen or put in RNA later, were analysed by bulk RNA sequencing (50 million reads per sample) using the Illumina NovaSeq system.

• Bulk RNAseq from in vitro generated macrophages and T cells, and mUM tumour biopsies

  Monocyte derived macrophages were polarised into M1 or M2 using IFNg+ ILP or IL-4 respectively (n =4) . Pan T cells were cultured with or without IL-2 for 4 days (n=4 - 6). Pan T cells were co-cultured with THP1 tumour cells for 20 hours in the presence or absence of ImmTAC molecules and in the presence or absence of M2 macrophages. Sorted T cells and macrophage populations prior and post co-culture were analysed by bulk RNA sequencing (60 million reads per sample) using the Illumina NovaSeq system. Tumour biopsies were obtained from uveal melanoma patients (n = 35) pre and 16 days post treatment with tebentafusp. Biopsies, which were either snap frozen or put in RNA later, were analysed by bulk RNA sequencing (50 million reads per sample) using the Illumina NovaSeq system

• A prospective study identifies MisMatch Repair genes as candidate predisposing genes for uveal melanoma.

  Objective: The aim of this study is to identify new predisposing genes for uveal melanoma (UM), the most common intraocular malignancy in adults. Design: Prospective cohort study from Institut Curie. Participants: 381 unselected patients diagnosed with UM between July 2021 and February 2023 at Institut Curie. Methods: All patients received genetic counseling and consented to extended genetic testing. A panel of 122 genes was analyzed by targeted sequencing on germline DNA from these patients. Main outcomes measures: UM was diagnosed by ophthalmologists at Institut Curie, and a senior pathologist confirmed the diagnosis when tumor or biopsy was available. Classification of the germline genetic variants was performed according to the ACMG guidelines. Results: We identified at least one pathogenic variant (PV) in 79 patients. Among those variants, 20 were found in clinically relevant genes for the patient’s follow-up and genetic counseling. We found a significant enrichment of germline pathogenic variants in Mismatch Repair (MMR) MLH1, MSH2 and MSH6 genes in this UM cohort, suggesting that MMR germline alterations could predispose to UM. From this cohort, one tumor was available from a patient carrying a MLH1 germline mutation. The tumor was characterized by a monosomy 3, in line with a loss of heterozygosity (LOH) of MLH1, located on chromosome 3. Loss of expression of MLH1 and PMS2 was observed by immunohistochemistry, and MMR mutational signatures SBS6, ID1 and ID2 were identified from the whole genome sequencing of the tumor. These data suggest that MLH1 is implicated in the oncogenesis of this UM. Conclusions: This study is the largest prospective constitutional study performed on UM patients, and the first demonstrating that MMR germline alterations are significantly enriched among these patients. Further analyses will be needed to estimate the risk of developing UM for patients with Lynch syndrome

• Investigation of BK Polyomavirus (BKPyV) and Molecular Signatures in UC specimens from Taiwan

  Urothelial carcinoma (UC) is the most prevalent cancer of kidney transplant recipients in some regions. The integration of BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) genome into the human genome is observed in some cases of UC. The prevalence of aristolochic acid (AA) mutational signatures in urothelial carcinoma is high in the general population of Taiwan. To better understand the mechanisms of UC carcinogenesis in kidney transplant recipients, 19 UC specimens were analyzed by whole genome sequencing (WGS) and Hybrid Sequencing.
