Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium (CPTAC) Proteogenomic Confirmatory Study of Breast, Colon, Lung, and Ovarian Tumors

Recently, significant progress has been made in characterizing and sequencing the genomic alterations in statistically robust numbers of samples from several types of cancer. For example, The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC) and other similar efforts are identifying genomic alterations associated with specific cancers (e.g., copy number aberrations, rearrangements, point mutations, epigenomic changes, etc.). The availability of these multi-dimensional data to the scientific community sets the stage for the development of new molecularly targeted cancer interventions. Understanding the comprehensive functional changes in cancer proteomes arising from genomic alterations and other factors is the next logical step in the development of high-value candidate protein biomarkers. Hence, proteomics can greatly advance the understanding of molecular mechanisms of disease pathology via the analysis of changes in protein expression, their modifications and variations, as well as protein-protein interaction, signaling pathways and networks responsible for cellular functions such as apoptosis and oncogenesis. Realizing this great potential, the NCI launched the second phase of the CPTC initiative in September 2011. Renamed the Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium, CPTAC is beginning to leverage its analytical outputs from Phase I to define cancer proteomes on genomically-characterized biospecimens. The purpose of this integrative approach is to provide the broad scientific community with knowledge that links genotype to proteotype and ultimately phenotype. The data contained in this dataset are derived from samples designed to confirm CPTAC findings from the TCGA samples. These confirmatory samples contain breast, ovarian, colon, and lung tumors collected via a protocol optimized for proteomics. Specifically, ischemic time of the sample was controlled and restricted to less than 30 minutes. ACGT, Inc. produced whole exome, mRNAseq, and miRNAseq for these samples. Corresponding proteomic data are available at: https://cptac-data-portal.georgetown.edu/cptacPublic/ The study design was to profile colon, breast, ovarian, and lung tumors both genomically and proteomically. Germline DNA was obtained from blood. Normal control samples for proteomics varied by organ site: adjacent colon tissue for colon cases, contralateral breast tissue for some breast cases, and Fallopian tube fimbria for some ovarian cases. Lung cases had no normal control for proteomic analysis. All cancer samples were derived from primary and untreated tumors.

Childhood Cancer Data Initiative (CCDI): Pediatric In Vivo Testing Program – Sarcomas and other Solid Tumors

The primary goal of this project involves the comprehensive molecular profiling of patient-derived xenograft (PDX) mouse tumor models. Molecular profiling of each PDX model will include whole exome sequencing (WES), RNAseq, MethylEPIC arrays, CytoSNP array, and DNA fingerprint for quality control. Limited clinical demographic data (e.g. diagnosis, disease site, disease status) will be obtained. This data can be utilized to validate PDX models with matched patient tumors and can be used to guide model selection for downstream preclinical drug testing.

MP2PRT-MNG: Identifying Novel Molecular Markers of Response to Radiotherapy in Meningiomas Using Samples from the RTOG-0539 (NCT00895622)

The Molecular Profiling to Predict Response to Treatment (MP2PRT) program is part of the NCI's Cancer Moonshot Initiative. The aim of this program is the retrospective characterization and analysis of biospecimens collected from completed NCI-sponsored trials of the National Clinical Trials Network and the NCI Community Oncology Research Program. NRG RTOG (Radiation Therapy Oncology Group)-0539, which was a nonrandomized phase II cooperative group trial in 2009, was selected for inclusion in this program. NRG RTOG-0539 assigned patients with histologically confirmed diagnosis of meningioma to 1 of 3 risk groups based on 2007 WHO grade, resection extent, and recurrence status, and radiotherapy was given per protocol to the intermediate- and high-risk cases. Under the MP2PRT program, DNA methylation profiling, RNA sequencing, and whole exome sequencing were performed on clinical trial cases with available tissue for molecular analyte extraction and subsequent sequencing. Raw molecular data with metadata are available for this study.

Immediate Postoperative Minimal Residual Disease Detection with MAESTRO Predicts Recurrence and Survival in Head and Neck Cancer Patients Treated with Surgery

We selected 24 patients with locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) who were surgically treated. MAESTRO, our ultrasensitive, tumor-informed, mutation enrichment sequencing assay, was applied in a pooled format (MAESTRO-Pool) to plasma samples collected from these patients at baseline (pre-op) and postoperatively. We show that detection of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) 1 to 9 days after surgery is associated with significantly worse survival. Many plasma samples also had tumor fractions detected below 100 parts-per-million, the detection limit for first-generation commercial assays, highlighting the need for more sensitive ctDNA assays. Here we provide whole genome sequencing of matched tumor biopsy and normal germline DNA from 24 patients that were used to identify somatic single nucleotide variants (SNVs) to be tracked using our MAESTRO-Pool assay.

Antihypertensive and Lipid-Lowering Treatment to Prevent Heart Attack Trial (ALLHAT-BioLINCC)

Data Access NOTE: Please refer to the “Authorized Access” section below for information about how access to the data from this accession differs from many other dbGaP accessions. ObjectivesHypertension Study: To determine whether treatment with a calcium channel blocker or an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor lowers the incidence of coronary heart disease (CHD) or other cardiovascular disease (CVD) events vs treatment with a diuretic.Lipid Study: To determine whether pravastatin compared with usual care reduces all-cause mortality in older, moderately hypercholesterolemic, hypertensive participants with at least an additional CHD risk factor. BackgroundHypertension Study: Antihypertensive therapy is well established to reduce hypertension-related morbidity and mortality, but the optimal first-step therapy is unknown.Lipid Study: Studies have demonstrated that statins administered to individuals with risk factors for coronary heart disease (CHD) reduce CHD events. However, many of these studies were too small to assess all-cause mortality or outcomes in important subgroups.ParticipantsHypertension Study: A total of 33,357 participants. Lipid Study: A total of 10,355 participants. Baseline mean total cholesterol was 224 mg/dL; LDL-C, 146 mg/dL; high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, 48 mg/dL; and triglycerides, 152 mg/dL. Mean age was 66 years; 49% were women, 38% black and 23% Hispanic, 14% had a history of CHD, and 35% had type 2 diabetes. DesignHypertension Study: A randomized, double-blind, active-controlled clinical trial conducted from February 1994 through March 2002. Participants were randomly assigned to receive chlorthalidone, 12.5 to 25 mg/d (n = 15,255); amlodipine, 2.5 to 10 mg/d (n = 9048); or lisinopril, 10 to 40 mg/d (n = 9054) for planned follow-up of approximately 4 to 8 years. The primary outcome was combined fatal CHD or nonfatal myocardial infarction, analyzed by intent-to-treat. Secondary outcomes were all-cause mortality, stroke, combined CHD (primary outcome, coronary revascularization, or angina with hospitalization), and combined CVD (combined CHD, stroke, treated angina without hospitalization, heart failure (HF), and peripheral arterial disease).Lipid Study: Multicenter (513 primarily community-based North American clinical centers), randomized, non-blinded trial conducted from 1994 through March 2002 in a subset of participants from the Antihypertensive and Lipid-Lowering Treatment to Prevent Heart Attack Trial (ALLHAT). The interventions in the trial were pravastatin, 40 mg/d, vs usual care. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality, with follow-up for up to 8 years. Secondary outcomes included non-fatal myocardial infarction or fatal CHD (CHD events) combined, cause-specific mortality, and cancer.ConclusionsHypertension Study: Thiazide-type diuretics are superior in preventing one or more major forms of CVD and are less expensive. They should be preferred for first-step antihypertensive therapy.Lipid Study: Pravastatin did not reduce either all-cause mortality or CHD significantly when compared with usual care in older participants with well-controlled hypertension and moderately elevated LDL-C. The results may be due to the modest differential in total cholesterol (9.6%) and LDL-C (16.7%) between pravastatin and usual care compared with prior statin trials supporting cardiovascular disease prevention.

Carolina Breast Cancer Study (CBCS)

The Carolina Breast Cancer Study (CBCS), phase III, is a population-based study aiming to understand the social and molecular correlates of breast cancer outcomes, particularly among Black and young women. CBCS recruited first primary breast cancer cases from 44 North Carolina counties between 2008-2013. All cases were between age 20 and 74 and self-identified as female. Black women and young women were systematically oversampled by randomized recruitment such that the study includes approximately 50% Black women and approximately 50% women diagnosed before age 50. A total of 2,998 participants were enrolled. In the ten years following diagnosis, women completed surveys approximately every 1-2 years and diagnoses of subsequent distant local recurrence and second primary tumors were ascertained via linked medical records. We identified records of women who developed secondary breast tumors (including second primary tumors, contralateral breast cancers, and locoregional recurrences), and these participants were oversampled for targeted DNA sequencing using the UNCseq panel (~1200 genes).CBCS germline pathogenic mutations cannot be investigated because participants were consented between 2008 and 2013 with specific language prohibiting this. However, germline data can be used to call somatic mutations or to standardize somatic genomic data.For sharing of study data not included here, please visit unclineberger.org for instructions on submitting a data use agreement.

Kids First: Pediatric Research Project on the Genomic Analysis of Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia

The Gabriella Miller Kids First Pediatric Research Program (Kids First) is a trans-NIH effort initiated in response to the 2014 Gabriella Miller Kids First Research Act and supported by the NIH Common Fund. This program focuses on gene discovery in pediatric cancers and structural birth defects and the development of the Gabriella Miller Kids First Pediatric Data Resource (Kids First Data Resource). Both, childhood cancers and structural birth defects are critical and costly conditions associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. Elucidating the underlying genetic etiology of these diseases has the potential to profoundly improve preventative measures, diagnostics, and therapeutic interventions. WGS and phenotypic data from this study are accessible through dbGaP and kidsfirstdrc.org, where other Kids First datasets can also be accessed. In collaboration with the University of Utah, DNA from four families were selected for high-depth WGS (60X) including diaphragm and skin tissue to identify mosaicism. In collaboration with the Broad Institute, DNA from four families underwent linked long read sequencing using 10X Genomics technology. Probands with congenital diaphragmatic hernia/defects and both biological parents enrolled as part of the DHREAMS study.

Development of a fully human glioblastoma-in-brain-spheroid model for accelerated translational research

In glioblastoma (GBM) the intricate interplay between tumor cells and the surrounding microenvironment plays a crucial role in tumor progression, invasion, and therapeutic resistance. So far, studying these interactions in a controlled and representative model system has been challenging. Here, we report the development of hGliCS, a human glioma-cortical spheroid model that allows the elucidation of the biology of GBM cells and their interactions with a human-specific brain-like microenvironment and neurons. GBM cells efficiently invade the cortical spheroids, forming a well-connected network of communicating cells. The heterogeneous cellular states of the GBM cells within this model closely resembled findings previously observed in glioblastoma patients and in mouse xenografts. We observed a transition from predominantly mesenchymal-like cells to heterotopic states with a high diversity. In contrast to the substantial changes observed in the tumor cell population, the impact of the GBM cells on the neurons was minimal. We further demonstrate the suitability of hGliCS to test compounds targeting tumor-specific neurobiological features.
