• Genome-wide NanoRCS sequencing of cfDNA and ctDNA from liquid biopsies of healthy individuals and cancer patients

  Levels of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in liquid biopsies may serve as a sensitive biomarker for real-time, minimally-invasive tumor diagnostics and monitoring. However, detecting ctDNA is challenging, as much fewer than 5% of the cell-free DNA in the blood typically originates from the tumor. To detect lowly abundant molecules, extremely sensitive sequencing methods are required. We developed a new technique, NanoRCS, which is based on Oxford Nanopore sequencing of concatenated copies of a single DNA molecule for genome-wide sequencing, and applied this to plasma of healthy individuals, Esophageal cancer patients and Granulosa cell tumor patients and ascites of Ovarian cancer patients. We also sequenced these samples on Illumina Novaseq, to compare the two techniques.

• Sequencing data of tumor tissue obtained from GANNET53 study patients

  The GANNET53 clinical trial evaulated novel treatment options for ovarian cancer patients with platinum-resistant relapse. Archival fresh-frozen paraffin embedded tissue was available from 131 of the 133 enrolled patients. NGS sequencing aimed at assessing the mutational spectrum of key ovarian cancer genes (with a focus on TP53), and their relevance for therapy resistance. From available FFPE samples, DNA was extracted and NGS sequenced using the SureSeq™ Ovarian Cancer Panel and the NGS Library Preparation kit covering all exons of 7 key ovarian cancer genes BRCA1, BRCA2,TP53, PTEN, ATM, ATR, NF1 for single nucleotide variants (SNV) and indels. Finally, sequence data from 118 individual FFPE tumor tissue samples were generated.

• Evolution of Structural Rearrangements in Prostate Cancer Intracranial Metastases

  Intracranial metastases in prostate cancer are uncommon but clinically aggressive. We sought to characterize prostate cancer intracranial metastases in order to improve our understanding of their pathogenesis and to promote the search for new treatment strategies. We evaluated the clinical and molecular characteristics of 36 patients with metastatic prostate cancer to either the dura or brain parenchyma. We performed whole genome sequencing (WGS) on samples from 21 patients. The WGS samples include 10 intracranial prostate cancer metastases, as well as WGS of primary prostate tumors from men who later developed metastatic disease (n=6) and non-brain prostate cancer metastases (n=26).

• P4HA1 Mediates Hypoxia-Induced Invasion in Human Pancreatic Cancer Organoids

  Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is an aggressive malignancy defined by extensive invasion into the local tumor microenvironment and systemic metastasis. PDAC develops in a hypoxic microenvironment and adapts to survive under low oxygen conditions, including the activation of processes that may enhance the ability of cancer cells to invade locally or metastasize. Here we employ bulk RNA-sequencing of eight patient-derived organoid (PDO) cultures grown in hypoxia and normoxia to identify differentially expressed genes. PDOs were grown in Matrigel, transferred into collagen domes, then incubated in hypoxia or normoxia. Invasive organoids were individually collected from collagen domes grown in hypoxia and normoxia separately and processed for RNA-sequencing analysis. Using this dataset, prolyl 4-hydroxylase subunit alpha (P4HA1) was identified as a potential regulator of PDAC invasion in hypoxia. This dataset exists as a reference for gene expression of invasive organoids in hypoxia and normoxia.

• Linked-Read Whole Genome Sequencing Profiles Structural Variant Landscape of Gliomas with Barcode-Level Evidence

  Structural variants (SVs) play essential roles in glioma oncogenesis and offer prognostic insights, yet the SV landscape of gliomas has not been completely characterized due to previous technological limitations. To comprehensively profile the SV landscape of gliomas, we performed linked-read whole genome sequencing (LR-WGS) on 31 tumour samples from 20 glioma patients. Using barcode-level evidence, we validated known SVs and identified the presence of extrachromosomal DNA containing the EGFR sequence, which correlates with elevated EGFR expression. Additionally, we uncovered rare SVs affecting genes typically mutated by single nucleotide variants (SNVs), including those in the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex. Our analysis also reveals selective chromosomal vulnerabilities to SVs, highlighting certain chromosomes as hotspots for SV accumulation. Collectively, our results demonstrate the utility of LR-WGS in accurately detecting SVs and thoroughly profiling SV landscapes using barcode-level evidence. The insights gained into the synergistic effects of SNVs and SVs on oncogenes further underscore the importance of integrating SV analysis when examining mutations in gliomas.

• Germline Genomic Analyses of Breast Cancer in Latinas

  In this case-control study of breast cancer among Hispanic/Latina (H/L) women, the goals were to identify breast cancer susceptibility genes and genetic variants for risk of developing breast cancer in H/L women. There were two phases with whole exome sequencing (WES) done in a discovery phase and targeted sequencing of candidate genes in the replication phase. The candidate genes selected for replication came from the first phase and from genes known to affect breast cancer risk in prior studies. Cases and controls were drawn from several studies. Breast cancer cases for discovery phase included women from the City of Hope (COH) Clinical Cancer Genomics Community Research Network (CCGCRN), UCSF Cancer Genetics Clinic and USC Cancer Genetics clinic. Controls for discovery phase included women who did not have breast and were recruited through City of Hope community fairs. A separate group of controls included women from the California Teachers Study. Additional controls for discovery were obtained from WES already generated by the Multi-ethnic cohort (MEC) study. The discovery/WES results of known breast cancer genes were published (PMID 31206626). In the replication phase, we included cases and controls from the Cancer de Mama (CAMA) study which is a case-control study of breast cancer in Mexico, MEC for those not included in the discovery dataset, the San Francisco Bay Area Cancer study (phs000912), the Northern California Breast Cancer Registry, and the California Pacific Medical Center Research Institute Women's Cohort (phs000395). Cases from the PATHWAYS study who were recruited from Northern California Kaiser Permanente were also included. Results from the combined discovery and replication analyses are reported in PMID 36747679.

• Human papillomavirus integration induces oncogenic host gene fusions in oropharyngeal cancers

  HPV integration disrupts host genomic structure and expression, but whether these alterations promote cancer development remains unclear. Multiple genomic analyses of oropharyngeal cancers identified several host gene fusions, including recurrent FGFR3-TACC3 fusions, expressed from rearranged genomic loci adjacent to HPV integration sites. Evolutionary modeling implicated integration of virus concatemers into the host genome as a common initiating event in fusion formation. Co-expression of HPV16 E6/E7 and FGFR3-TACC3, but neither alone, was sufficient for tumor development in both xenograft and syngeneic mouse models and led to unique transcriptional programs implicated in carcinogenesis. FGFR3-TACC3 expression decreased the ubiquitination and degradation of E6 and E7, thereby increasing oncoprotein abundance. We conclude that expression of HPV16 oncoproteins and host gene fusions generated from HPV integration sites can be sufficient for cancer development.
