• Smoking-dependent expression alterations in nasal epithelium reveal immune impairment linked to germline variation and lung cancer risk.

  Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death in the world. In contrast to many other cancers, a direct connection to lifestyle risk in the form of cigarette smoke has long been established. More than 50% of all smoking-related lung cancers occur in former smokers, often many years after smoking cessation. Despite extensive research, the molecular processes for persistent lung cancer risk are unclear. CT screening of current and former smokers has been shown to reduce lung cancer mortality by up to 26%. To examine whether clinical risk stratification can be improved upon by the addition of genetic data, and to explore the mechanisms of the persisting risk in former smokers, we have analyzed transcriptomic data from accessible airway tissues of 487 subjects. We developed a model to assess smoking associated gene expression changes and their reversibility after smoking is stopped, in both healthy subjects and clinic patients. We find persistent smoking associated immune alterations to be a hallmark of the clinic patients. Integrating previous GWAS data using a transcriptional network approach, we demonstrate that the same immune and interferon related pathways are strongly enriched for genes linked to known genetic risk factors, demonstrating a causal relationship between immune alteration and lung cancer risk. Finally, we used accessible airway transcriptomic data to derive a non-invasive lung cancer risk classifier. Our results provide initial evidence for germline-mediated personalised smoke injury response and risk in the general population, with potential implications for managing long-term lung cancer incidence and mortality.

• High-depth whole genome sequencing of 26 premalignant breast lesions

  Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is a non-obligate precursor lesion of breast cancer, representing 20-25% of newly diagnosed breast cancer lesions. It is currently not possible to predict which DCIS patients will progress to invasive breast cancer. The samples deposited here are part of a larger study using high-depth whole-genome sequencing (WGS) to investigate the somatic mutation genomic landscape of DCIS. Comprehensive evaluation of DCIS genomes aims to uncover biological insights into breast cancer progression and potential opportunities to stratify DCIS patients for personalised treatment options or active surveillance. Due to specific restrictions imposed by the ethical approval at sample collection, the use of the germline data is restricted to filtering of somatic mutation calls only and cannot be used outside this purpose.

• Clonal_haematopoiesis_in_patients_with_AAA

  Recent advances in genomics have demonstrated that clonal haemopoiesis driven by leukaemia associated somatic mutations is a relatively common phenomenon that increases in frequency with advancing age. Whilst individuals with clonal haemopoiesis have an increased risk of developing haematological malignancies, they also have an increased mortality from other causes. Additionally, certain mutations are almost exclusively seen in individuals aged 70 years or older, whilst others are seen in individuals with non-haematological cancers including breast and ovarian. Recently, clonal haemopoiesis was found to be associated with a significantly increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. This association is thought to be causative with clonally-derived macrophages showing elevated expression of several chemokine and cytokine genes that contribute to atherosclerosis. Another vascular pathology, abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), increases with age and shares risk factors with atherosclerosis (including smoking, male sex, high cholesterol). However, the impact of these risk factors and the overlap between AAA and atherosclerosis is poorly understood. To investigate a possible link between clonal haemopoiesis and AAA, we will study DNA samples from 300 patients with AAA and up to 200 controls for evidence of clonal haemopoiesis. This will be done using target DNA enrichment with biotinylated RNA baits followed by high throughput sequencing.

• Genome-wide analyses of cell-free DNA for therapeutic monitoring of patients with pancreatic cancer

  Determining response to therapy for patients with pancreatic cancer can be challenging. We evaluated methods for assessing therapeutic response using cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in plasma samples from 40 patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer as part of the CheckPAC trial (NCT02866383). Patients were evaluated before and after initiation of therapy using tumor-informed plasma whole-genome sequencing (WGMAF), and genome-wide cfDNA fragmentation profiles and repeat landscapes (ARTEMIS-DELFI). Of those assessed with WGMAF, molecular responders had a median overall survival (OS) of 319 days compared to 126 days for non-responders (HR=0.29, 95% CI=0.11–0.79, p=0.011). For ARTEMIS-DELFI, patients with low scores after therapy initiation had a longer median OS than patients with high scores (233 days versus 172 days, HR=0.12, 95% CI=0.046-0.31, p<0.0001). We validated ARTEMIS-DELFI in a separate cohort of 40 patients with pancreatic cancer who were part of the PACTO trial (NCT02767557). These analyses suggest that non-invasive mutation and fragmentation-based cfDNA approaches can identify therapeutic response of individuals with pancreatic cancer.

• Melbourne Collaborative Cohort Study DNA Methylation Studies

  This dataset contains raw Illumina 450K blood DNA methylation data from a subset of participants in the Melbourne Cohort Study (MCCS), a prospective study of 41,513 healthy adult volunteers (24,469 women) aged between 27 and 76 years when recruited between 1990 and 1994. Nested case-control studies: DNA methylation data were generated as part of cancer case-control studies nested in the MCCS. Participants were cancer-free at blood draw; blood samples were taken at baseline (1990-1994) for 97% of participants; and for 3% of participants at the second wave of follow-up (2003-2007). Eight separate studies were conducted of breast, prostate, colorectal, lung, kidney, urothelial and gastric cancer and B-cell lymphoma, for a total of > 3,500 cancer cases. Controls were individually matched to cases on age, sex, and country of birth using incidence density sampling. Additional matching on smoking history was made for the study of lung cancer. Longitudinal study: For a subset of 1,100 participants with baseline DNA methylation measures (from dried blood spots) who were selected as controls in the nested case-control studies, repeated methylation measures were made using wave 2 follow-up samples (also from dried blood spots) to study longitudinal DNA methylation changes. Project aims: 1. Nested case-control studies: To assess prospective associations between peripheral blood DNA methylation and risk of eight cancer types (breast, prostate, colorectal, lung, kidney, urothelial cell and gastric cancer, and mature B-cell neoplasms). 2. Longitudinal study: To assess associations between lifestyle changes and changes in peripheral blood DNA methylation.

• Benchmarking for alignment and variant calling

  Background: Lung cancer is a heterogeneous disease and the primary cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Somatic mutations, including large structural variants, are important biomarkers in lung cancer for selecting targeted therapy. Genomic studies in lung cancer have been conducted using short-read sequencing. Emerging long-read sequencing technologies are a promising alternative to study somatic structural variants, however there is no current consensus on how to process data and call somatic events. In this study, we preformed whole genome sequencing of lung cancer and matched non-tumour samples using long and short read sequencing to comprehensively benchmark three sequence aligners and six structural variant callers comprised of four generic callers (Sniffles2, cuteSV, SVIM and DELLY in generic mode) and two somatic callers (nanomonsv and DELLY in somatic modes). Results: Different combinations of aligners and variant callers influenced somatic structural variant detection. The choice of caller had a significant influence on somatic structural variant detection in terms of variant type, size, sensitivity, and accuracy. The performance of each variant caller was assessed by comparing to somatic structural variants identified by short read sequencing. When compared to somatic structural variants detected with short read sequencing, more events were detected with long read sequencing. The mean recall of somatic variant events identified by short read sequencing was higher for the somatic callers (64%) than generic callers (52%), with nanomonsv (69%) showing the best performance. Conclusion: Long read sequencing can identify somatic structural variants. The longer reads have the potential to improve our understanding of cancer development and inform personalized cancer treatment.

• cfDNA Methylomes for HCC Detection and Postoperative Monitoring

  To overcome the limitations of current ctDNA-based HCC detection, specifically mutational profiling, we propose quantifying cfDNA methylation levels using cfMeDIP-seq and evaluating its capacity for HCC detection and post-surgery recurrence monitoring. This approach aims to reveal the clonal dynamics of HCC during surgery and upon relapse. Our preliminary data and analyzed results demonstrate that tumor-agnostic cfDNA methylomes can accurately detect HCC and predict recurrence after liver resection or transplantation. This method could have significant implications for the diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of HCC.
