• Personalized RNA mutanome vaccines mobilize poly-specific therapeutic immunity against cancer RNA-Seq

  The goal of the sequencing study was to determine the neoantigen profile of melanoma patients. We performed whole exome sequening of the tumor and respective patien matched PBMC samples (2x50nt) and RNA-sqeuencing of the tumor samples. The was analyzed for somatic point mutaions, using the RNA-Seq data to determine mutation expression. This study contains the patient matched RNA-Sequencing data.

• Integrative genomic profiling of large-cell neuroendocrine carcinomas reveals distinct subtypes of high-grade neuroendocrine lung tumors

  Large-cell neuroendocrine lung carcinomas (LCNEC) have similarities with other lung cancers, but their precise relationship has remained unclear. We conducted comprehensive genomic (n=60) and transcriptomic (n=69) analyses of 75 LCNECs and identified two molecular subgroups: “type I LCNECs” with bi-allelic TP53 and STK11/KEAP1 alterations (37%), and “type II LCNECs” enriched for bi-allelic inactivation of TP53 and RB1 (42%). Despite sharing genomic alterations with adenocarcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas, no transcriptional relationship was found; instead LCNECs form distinct transcriptional subgroups with closest similarity to SCLC. While type I LCNECs and SCLCs exhibit a neuroendocrine profile with ASCL1high/DLL3high/NOTCHlow, type II LCNECs bear TP53 and RB1 alterations and differ from most SCLC tumors with reduced neuroendocrine markers, a pattern of ASCL1low/DLL3low/NOTCHhigh and upregulation of immune-related pathways. In conclusion, LCNECs are comprised of two molecularly defined subgroups, and distinguishing them from SCLC may allow for stratified targeted treatments for high-grade neuroendocrine lung tumors.

• 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.

• Prediction of HLA genotypes using NGS data

  High-precision human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genotyping is crucial for anti-cancer immunotherapy, but existing tools predicting HLA genotypes using next-generation sequencing (NGS) data are insufficiently accurate.

• Prostate_Cancer_Whole_Genome_Validations

  We propose to definitively characterise the somatic genetics of Prostate cancer through generation of comprehensive catalogues of somatic mutations by high coverage genome sequencing. This study will aim to validate the findings of the whole genome study by re-sequencing regions of interest using a bespoke pulldown bait.

• Meningioma_Targeted_Sequencing_Study

  This Study uses a focused bespoke bait pull down library method to target findings of Meningioma whole genome and whole exome sequencing studies in order to validate findings. This method will also be used on a larger set of tumour only samples in order to find precedence of these findings in a larger set of patient samples.

• Harnessing_transposons_for_drug_resistance_gene_discovery_in_cancer

  This study involves a forward genetic screen to identify common insertion sites in drug resistant clones. We will be utilising piggybac transposon systems in order to generate multiple drug resistant clones in a range of human cancer cell lines.

• Osteosarcoma_whole_genome_rearrangement_screen

  Genomic libraries (500 bps) will be generated from total genomic DNA derived from Osteosarcoma cancer patients and subjected to short paired end sequencing on the llumina platform. Paired reads will be mapped to build 37 of the human reference genome to facilitate the generation of genome wide copy number information, and the identification of novel rearranged cancer genes and gene fusions.

• EORTC RP1335 SPECTA Lung cancer data

  SPECTAlung has recruited patients with thoracic malignancies, collecting FFPE material for molecular analysis. Illumina TST170 NGS panel was used for sequencing. The goal was to identify patients for whom a personalized treatment was possible and build a clinically-annotated molecular database for thoracic patients.
