• Mutational signatures in normal tissues of patients treated with clinical stage G-quadruplex binder CX5461

  Drug induced photoreactions following exposure to UVA have been documented for several therapeutic compound classes, including psoralens and fluoroquinolones. We used deep (~80X) whole genome sequencing to examine the mutagenic spectrum of CX5461, quinolone-derived small molecule, in normal tissues of cancer patients undergoing treatment. We compared the distribution of somatic base substitutions and short indels from skin biopsies taken from non-sun exposed areas pre and post CX5461 exposure of patients. To further characterize the mutational pattern of CX5461 photoreactivity, we compared mutational profiles of human retinal pigment epithelial cells exposed to UVA, CX5461, or a combination of both UV and CX5461.

• Excised DNA Circles from V(D)J Recombination Promote Relapsed Leukaemia

  In this study, we show that ESCs replicate and persist through many cell generations. High ESC copies at diagnosis of BCP-ALL strongly correlate with subsequent relapse. These data provide the first demonstration that the V(D)J recombination by-product, when replicated to elevated levels, potently associates with the V(D)J recombinase to cause adverse disease outcomes.

• Bevacizumab plus erlotinib in advanced solid cancers with Krebs cycle gene mutations: A multicenter phase II study

  Targeting aberrant metabolism in tumors with alterations in genes encoding Krebs cycle enzymes, a central component of glucose metabolism, is a promising therapeutic strategy. These tumors rely on aerobic glycolysis and promote VEGF-dependent angiogenesis; furthermore, EGFR signaling enhances aerobic glycolysis. This phase 2 trial evaluated bevacizumab and erlotinib in patients with solid tumors harboring Krebs cycle gene mutations.

• Whole-genome sequencing on hepatocellular carcinoma with nodule-in-nodule appearance reveals stepwise cancer evolution

  We examined five cases with hypovascular early HCC with hypervascular foci, so-called nodule-in-nodule HCC. Multiregional sampling was performed from both the inner hypervascular region and outer hypovascular region, together with noncancerous liver tissue and lymphocytes as controls. Comprehensive analysis of genomic aberrations, such as single nucleotide variants (SNVs) and structural variations (STVs), was performed by whole-genome sequencing.

• EXPRESSION OF ANTIBODY-DRUG CONJUGATE TARGETS IN BREAST CANCER METASTASES AND NORMAL TISSUE

  Using bulk mRNA sequencing, we investigated the expression of 72 ADC targets, which are clinically approved or under investigation, in 909 samples (64 primary untreated, 749 metastatic, 96 normal) from 30 female patients from our post-mortem tissue donation program UPTIDER (NCT04531696). The study explores changes in target expression across multiple samples to identify novel targets of clinical interest and validation

• Imaging metabolic heterogeneity in breast cancer using hyperpolarized 13C-MRI

  Higher 13C-lactate labeling was seen in the more aggressive tumors, including all triple negative breast cancers. There was a significant correlation between lactate labeling and expression of the monocarboxylate transporter (MCT1), which mediates tumor cell pyruvate uptake, and a weaker correlation with expression of LDHA, which catalyzes label exchange between the injected pyruvate and the endogenous lactate pool.

• Amplicon_based_sequencing_of_drug_resistant_lung_cancer_cell_lines

  A EGFR mutant NSCLC cell line which is sensitive to AZD9291 inhibition was mutagenised with the chemical mutagen ENU and then drug selected using a AZD9291. Single cell derived colonies were then manually picked and expanded in drug. Resistance was confirmed in a 14 day assay and DNA was collected. These then underwent targeted amplicon-based sequencing to confirm candidate resistance effectors hypothesised from currently available literature.

• Cylindromas_sun_protected_and_exposed

  The project aims to look at mutational signatures in a rare inherited skin tumour syndrome called CYLD cutaneous syndrome. These patients develop multiple skin tumours that are seen at sun exposed and sun protected sites. We plan to carry out WGS on carefully curated tumours from such patients. We then plan to analyse this data for mutational signatures, comparing this between sun exposed and sun protected sites.

• Clonal architecture and genomic features of smoking versus non-smoking oncogene-driven East-Asian non-small cell lung cancer

  Unlike smoking-related non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC), oncogene-driven tumors are characterized by low mutational burdens and complex genomic landscapes. However, the clonal architecture and genomic landscape of the oncogene-driven tumors in smokers remains unknown. Here, we investigate the impact of tobacco smoking on the genomic and transcriptomic alterations in the context of oncogene-driven NSCLC.

• Whole genome sequencing informs treatment decision of end-stage metastatic cutaneous angiosarcoma in a patient with Xeroderma Pigmentosum

  Whole genome sequencing (WGS) detects all mutations in a cancer. “Mutational signatures” are patterns of mutations that report the DNA damage and subsequent DNA repair processes that have occurred in cancers. We present a patient with Xeroderma Pigmentosum that developed metastatic angiosarcoma, unresponsive to all lines of sarcoma therapy. Primary tumour WGS revealed a hypermutated tumour, including clonal ultraviolet light-induced mutational patterns (Signature 7) and subclonal signatures of activating mutations of DNA Polymerase-epsilon (POLE)(Signature 10). These signatures are associated with response to immune-checkpoint blockade. Immunohistochemistry confirmed high PD-L1 expression in metastatic deposits. The patient was commenced on anti-PD-L1 therapy and has responded.
