• The spatio-temporal evolution of lymph node spread in early breast cancer

  Set of multi-region sequenced breast cancer primary samples, lymph nodes and ctDNA. We collected samples from 11 breast cancer patients with lymph node involvement but no sign of distant metastasis. We performed a mix of whole-exome sequencing, targeted capture sequencing, and whole-genome sequencing of primary tumour samples and lymph nodes, as well as targeted capture sequencing of circulating tumour DNA.

• Structural rearrangements generate cell-specific, gene-independent CRISPR-Cas9 loss of fitness effects.

  CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing is widely used to study gene function, from basic biology to biomedical research. Structural rearrangements are a ubiquitous feature of cancer cells and their impact on the functional consequences of CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing has not yet been assessed. Utilizing CRISPR-Cas9 knockout screens for 250 cancer cell lines, we demonstrate that targeting structurally rearranged regions, in particular tandem or interspersed amplifications, is highly detrimental to cellular fitness in a gene independent manner. In contrast, amplifications caused by whole chromosomal duplications have little to no impact on fitness. This effect is cell line specific and dependent on the ploidy status. We devise a copy-number ratio metric that substantially improves the detection of gene-independent cell fitness effects in CRISPR-Cas9 screens. Furthermore, we develop a computational tool, called Crispy, to account for these effects on a single sample basis and provide corrected gene fitness effects. Our analysis demonstrates the importance of structural rearrangements in mediating the effect of CRISPR-Cas9-induced DNA damage, with implications for the use of CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing in cancer cells.

• Circulating tumour DNA abundance and potential utility in de novo metastatic prostate cancer

  We set out to determine ctDNA abundance at de novo mCSPC diagnosis and whether ctDNA provides complementary clinically relevant information to a prostate biopsy. We collected and sequenced 77 plasma cell-free DNA samples from 53 newly diagnosed patients with mCSPC. Targeted sequencing was also performed on DNA from 48 diagnostic prostate tissue samples.

• Whole-genome sequencing of paired tumor and blood samples from 65 bladder cancer patients

  65 paired tumor and normal whole-genome sequencing samples from urothelial bladder carcinomas (UBC, the most common type of bladder cancer) are used to uncover the whole-genome mutational landscape of UBC. Recurrent mutations in noncoding regions affecting gene regulatory elements and structural variations leading to gene disruptions are prevalent in this type of cancer.

• The mutational landscape of normal human endometrial epithelium

  All normal somatic cells are thought to acquire mutations. However, characterisation of the patterns and consequences of somatic mutation in normal tissues is limited. Uterine endometrium is a dynamic tissue undergoing cyclical shedding and reconstitution lined by a gland-forming epithelium. Whole genome sequencing of normal endometrial glands showed that most are clonal cell populations derived from a recent common ancestor, with mutation burdens differing from other normal cell types and many fold lower than endometrial cancers. Mutational signatures found ubiquitously account for most mutations. Many, in some women all, endometrial glands are colonised by cell clones carrying driver mutations in cancer genes, often with multiple drivers. Total and driver mutation burdens increase with age, but are also influenced by other factors, including body mass index and parity, and clones with drivers often originate during early decades of life. The somatic mutational landscapes of normal cells differ between cell types and are revealing the procession of neoplastic change leading to cancer.
