• Low-coverage whole genome sequencing of plasma from BRCA-mutant breast cancer patients

  Plasma samples from patients with breast cancer (stage IV) who had confirmed BRCA mutations were subjected to low-coverage whole-genome sequencing This dataset contains raw fastq files from 6 breast cancer plasma samples.

• Whole-genome sequencing of tumour, germline and plasma samples from a BRCA1-mutant breast cancer patient

  This data set contains the fastq files from whole-genome sequencing of temporally matched tumour (fresh frozen biopsies), blood germline and plasma samples collected from a BRCA1-mutant breast cancer patient to directly compare mutation signature analysis using gold-standard tumour-germline paired variant calling with a novel ctDNA-based method (MisMatchFinder).

• Duplex sequencing of selected breast cancer patients

  This study assessed the variant profiles of 22 samples from 11 breast cancer patients with adverse survival outcomes, including paired uninvolved mammary gland samples collected at various distances from primary lesions. Ultra-deep sequencing was performed to identify the presence of low-frequency pathogenic post-zygotic variants in PIK3CA and TP53 genes.

• WES of breast cancer patients and controls

  This study assessed the variant profiles of 408 samples from 126 breast cancer patients with various survival outcomes, including paired uninvolved mammary gland samples collected at proximal distances from primary lesions. As a reference, control samples from 15 mammoplasty individuals without cancer history were studied. Whole exome sequencing was performed to identify post-zygotic and germline variants present in the studied samples. Variant annotation in known databases, interpretation, and statistical analyses followed to discern the clinical relevance of called variants.

• Duplex sequencing of selected breast cancer patients

  Investigation of post-zygotic and germline variants using whole exome and ultra-deep duplex sequencing in paired uninvolved margin and primaty tumor samples from 126 breast cancer patients with differing survival outcomes, with skin or blood samples as reference. Pairs of uninvolved margin and blood samples were also collected for 15 reduction mammoplasty patients without personal or familial history of cancer, serving as controls.

• Cancer cell and tumor microenvironment biomarkers associated with disease-free survival with adjuvant nivolumab in the phase 3 CheckMate 274 trial

  In the CheckMate 274 trial, adjuvant nivolumab versus placebo demonstrated an improvement in the primary endpoint of disease-free survival (DFS) in patients with high-risk muscle-invasive urothelial carcinoma after radical resection. An extensive analysis of tumor biomarkers, including their associations with DFS, was performed. Analysis of genome-wide differential gene expression and known gene signatures found that immune-related genes and pathways, in particular an IFNγ signature, were predictive of DFS in nivolumab-treated patients. Predictive and prognostic associations, respectively, were found for tumor-infiltrating CD4 and CD8 T cells. Analysis of a composite predictive model suggested that CD4 gene expression and tumor cell PD-L1 expression had the greatest contributions to predicting outcomes in nivolumab-treated patients. These results reinforce recent studies establishing the importance of biomarkers of adaptive immunity, and in particular CD4 T cells, in influencing response to PD-1/PD-L1 blockade and establish the potential predictive rather than solely prognostic nature of such findings.

• ROBUST (NCT02285062)

  The ROBUST clinical trial is a Phase III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study designed to compare the efficacy and safety of lenalidomide plus R-CHOP chemotherapy (R2-CHOP) versus placebo plus R-CHOP in newly diagnosed Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma (DLBCL). Molecular data was collected for all patients at screening, but the only patients of the Activated B-cell (ABC) cell-of-origin subtype were eligible for study inclusion and clinical follow-up. We have performed unsupervised clustering on this cohort and identified 7 novel transcriptional subtypes of DLBCL, one of which represents a high-risk subset of patients with high MYC expression, ABC-associated biology, and low immune infiltration.

• HiDEF-seq single-molecule sequencing of single-strand mismatches and damage

  Our study sought to resolve, with single-molecule fidelity, the mismatches and damage events that precede DNA mutations. Using a novel single-molecule, long-read sequencing method (HiDEF-seq) we detect base substitutions when present in either one or both DNA strands. We also detect cytosine deamination, a common type of DNA damage, with single-molecule fidelity. This study profiled 134 samples from diverse tissues, including from individuals with cancer predisposition syndromes. These samples revealed single-strand mismatch and damage signatures. Since double-strand DNA mutations are only the endpoint of the mutation process, our approach enables new studies of how mutations arise in a variety of contexts, especially in cancer and aging.

• Whole-exome sequencing identifies new pathogenic germline variants in patients with colorectal polyposis

  Adenomatous polyposis confers an increased risk of colorectal cancer development. Here, we investigated probably underlying predisposition variants in patients with suspected colorectal polyposis without variants in APC and MUTYH genes by whole exome sequencing (WES). Twenty-seven patients were included and subjected to germline WES. After filtering out variants for sequencing quality, variant allele fraction frequency, and population frequency, variants were manually prioritized by the ACMG criteria. Among the variants identified, 17 were classified as pathogenic or likely pathogenic (in 12 patients). This study gives information of probably associated polyposis variants in Brazilian patients without germline pathogenic variants in APC and MUTYH genes, supporting the utilization of next-generation sequencing for screening in these patients beyond these genes.
