• Genetic and Microenvironmental Analysis of Peripheral T-cell Lymphoma

  This study enrolled 129 patients diagnosed with PTCL, comprising 94 cases of nTFHL and 35 cases of PTCL-NOS. Whole exome sequencing (WES) and RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) were performed using DNA and RNA of sufficient quality extracted from their tumor specimens. WES was conducted for all 129 cases, while RNA-seq was performed on 57 tumor samples.

• WES Analysis of precancerous lesions in Lynch Syndrome

  The project focuses on identifying the genetic alterations involved in the early stages of tumor development in individuals with Lynch Syndrome. Using Whole Exome Sequencing (WES), the study aims to characterize somatic mutations and molecular pathways that drive the transformation from normal tissue to precancerous lesions. This research contributes to a better understanding of tumorigenesis in hereditary colorectal cancer syndromes.

• Genomic characterization of germ-cell tumors in childhood

  Germ cell tumors (GCTs) are rare neoplasms affecting approximately 3.5% of pediatric patients, with diverse histological subtypes. Despite their low mutational burden, prevalent alterations in KIT, KRAS, and NRAS genes are observed, but molecular understanding of pediatric GCTs lags behind adult counterparts. We aimed to elucidate the genomic landscape of 16 pediatric GCT patients via whole exome sequencing (WES), which revealed somatic alterations resembling those in adult GCTs.

• WES of sorted B lineage cells from patients with plasma cell neoplasms

  Whole-exome sequencing (WES) was conducted on cell populations isolated from each patient—diagnosed with either multiple myeloma (MM) or light-chain amyloidosis (AL) —including CD34⁺ hematopoietic progenitors, B-cell precursors, mature B cells, normal plasma cells, and clonal plasma cells. In the control cohort of healthy adults, the same target cell populations were analyzed, with the exception of clonal plasma cells, which were absent.

• Distinct genomic profiles and clinical outcomes in constitutional mismatch repair deficiency-associated high-grade gliomas: insights into mutational signatures and clonal evolution

  Constitutional mismatch repair deficiency (CMMRD) is a rare cancer-predisposition syndrome, yet the mutational processes and clonal evolution of CMMRD-associated high-grade gliomas (HGGs) remain incompletely understood. In this study, mutational signatures and tumor evolution were analyzed in 25 CMMRD-associated HGGs. Germline biallelic mutations were most frequently identified in MSH6 (56.0%), followed by PMS2 (36.0%) and MLH1 (8.0%). Affected patients showed very early disease onset (mean 5.8 years) and poor clinical outcomes, with a mean progression-free survival of 16 months. Distinct genomic and clinical differences were observed between MSH6- and PMS2-associated tumors. MSH6-deficient HGGs were enriched for SBS6, whereas PMS2-deficient tumors showed predominance of SBS21, and these mutational signatures were correlated with prognosis. Clonal evolution analyses revealed early involvement of POLE/POLD1 mutations and persistence of the founding clone at recurrence. Overall, the study highlights the importance of mutational signatures and clonal evolution in shaping tumor behavior and clinical outcomes in CMMRD-associated HGGs.

• Personalized analysis of ctDNA for detection of molecular residual disease and recurrence in a cohort of surgically treated patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma

  Despite advances in multimodal treatment, survival for patients with advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) has improved only modestly. The recent advent of tumor-informed assays capable of detecting circulating cell-free tumor DNA (ctDNA) has enabled early detection of molecular residual disease (MRD) and recurrence following curative therapy. We assessed ctDNA in plasma from 76 and saliva from 54 HNSCC patients, respectively, who received primary curative-intent surgery.

• VariantMedium: Sensitive and generalizable somatic point mutation calling with 3D DenseNets trained and evaluated on experimental confirmation data

  This study contains whole-exome sequencing (WES) and results of targeted deep-sequencing data of three matched tumor and normal cell lines, with two technical WES replicates each. The calls by Mutect2, Strelka2, and VariantMedium were confirmed using targeted deep sequencing on Illumina Miseq The targeted deep sequencing was performed in three runs and the results are summarized under VCF files.

• Diagnostic Exome Sequencing in Persons with Severe Intellectual Disability

  Intellectual disability is a common condition that carries lifelong severe medical and developmental consequences. The causes of intellectual disability (ID) remain unknown for the majority of patients due to the extensive clinical and genetic heterogeneity of this disorder. De novo mutations may play an important role in ID as most individuals with ID present as isolated cases without family history and/or clear syndromic indication. In addition, the involvement of such mutations have recently been demonstrated in a small number of individuals with ID. Here we evaluate the diagnostic potential and role of de novo mutations in a cohort of 100 patients with ID of unknown cause using family-based exome sequencing.

• Exome sequencing identifies mutation of the ribosome in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia

  Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common pediatric malignancy and responds well to therapy in children, but not in adults. We used exome sequencing of 67 T-cell ALL (T- ALL) samples to gain insight in the mutational spectrum and age related differences of these leukemias. We detected protein-altering mutations in 508 genes, with an average of 8.2 mutations in pediatric and 21.0 in adult T-ALL. Based on stringent filtering, we predict 15 of these genes to be drivers, including 7 genes that were not previously implicated in T-ALL. We identify CNOT3 as a new tumor suppressor, as it is mutated in 12.2 % of adult T-ALLs and its knock-down causes de novo tumors in a sensitized drosophila eye tumor model. In addition, we identify mutations in RPL5 and RPL10, proteins of the 60S ribosomal complex2, in 18.2 % of pediatric T-ALLs. Mutation of arginine 98 in the X-linked RPL10 gene was most frequent. Yeast cells expressing the Rpl10 R98S mutant showed a clear ribosome biogenesis defect, excluding that this mutation is a passenger mutation. Our data provide insights in the mutational landscape of pediatric and adult T-ALL and identify the ribosome as a potential oncogenic factor in cancer.
