    Abstract: Despite insights gained by bulk DNA sequencing of cancer it remains challenging to resolve the admixture of normal and tumor cells, and/or of distinct tumor subclones; high-throughput single-cell DNA sequencing circumvents these and brings cancer genomic studies to higher resolution. However, its application has been limited to liquid tumors or a small batch of solid tumors, mainly because of the lack of a scalable workflow to process solid tumor samples. Here we optimize a highly automated nuclei extraction workflow that achieves fast and reliable targeted single-nucleus DNA library preparation of 38 samples from 16 pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma patients, with an average library yield per sample of 2867 single nuclei. We demonstrate that this workflow not only performs well using low cellularity or low tumor purity samples but reveals genomic evolution patterns of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma as well.

    Abstract: The KPC mouse model, driven by the Kras and Trp53 transgenes, is well regarded for faithful recapitulation of human pancreatic cancer biology. However, the extent that this model recapitulates the subclonal evolution of this tumor type is unknown. Here we report evidence of continuing subclonal evolution after tumor initiation that largely reflect copy number alterations that target cellular processes of established significance in human pancreatic cancer. The evolutionary trajectories of the mouse tumors show both linear and branching patterns as well as clonal mixing. We propose the KPC model and derivatives have unexplored utility as a functional system to model the mechanisms and modifiers of tumor evolution.

    Abstract: Objective: Outcomes for patients with osteosarcoma with metastatic or relapsed disease remain poor. Multiple large-scale tumor genomic profiling efforts have been undertaken, however little is known about its spatial intermetastic heterogeneity and temporal clonal evolutionary processes. Methods: To address this issue, we performed 30-80x whole genome sequencing of nine metastases, three pre-treatment samples, and three on-therapy resection samples from three patients with osteosarcoma. Each patient (OSCE1, OSCE2, OSCE3) had a pre-treatment and on therapy resection of primary site sample as well as at least two sites of metastatic disease sequenced. OSCE1 has multiply relapsed disease and had tissue sequenced from relapse one, two, and four, while OSCE2 and OSCE3 had lethal refractory osteosarcoma. A set of high confidence single nucleotide variants (SNV), copy number alterations (CNA), structural variations (SV), and mutational signatures were called for each sample and an evolutionary analysis was performed using the Treeomics pipeline. Results: There was diversity in the evolutionary patterns observed across the three patients. OSCE1 and OSCE2 demonstrated linear evolutionary patterns during progression to metastatic disease while OSCE3 demonstrated parallel evolution. Whole-genome duplication events were truncal in all three samples with an average ploidy of 3.3, 3.0, and 3.3 per sample in OSCE1, OSCE2, and OSCE3 respectively. Regarding SNVs, OSCE1 had a clonal TP53, OSCE2 had a clonal SUZ12 mutation, and OSCE3 had a clonal ATRX mutation which was present in all samples. Subclonal mutations in consensus cancer genes were typically private to the individual sample. Copy number changes were a source of genomic diversity in consensus driver genes and between primary and metastatic sites. OSCE1 had persistent KEAP1 and CCNE1 amplification in relapse specimens that were not present in the pretreatment biopsy. OSCE2 had gains or amplifications in MECOM and KRAS which were truncal to all samples however gains in RUNX2 and KDR were private to the metastatic samples. In OSCE3 had focal amplifications in chromosome 7p were truncal to all samples, however focal amplifications in chromosome 12q involving CDK4 and GLI1 were present in only the pretreatment biopsy and one of four metastatic sites. Structural variants involving consensus driver genes were typically truncal to all samples for each patient. Conclusion: Our study confirms that copy number alterations in osteosarcoma are key oncogenic drivers of treatment resistance and are the largest contributor to intertumoral genetic heterogeneity in consensus driver genes, especially when comparing primary to metastatic samples. Our findings demonstrate the dynamic nature of genomic instability processes, highlighting the importance of longitudinal sampling at the time of recurrence to define treatment effect and the changing mutational landscape in these tumors.

    Abstract: Melanoma is a biologically heterogeneous disease composed of distinct clinicopathologic subtypes that frequently resist treatment. To explore the evolution of treatment resistance and metastasis, we used a combination of temporal and multilesional tumor sampling in conjunction with whole-exome sequencing of 110 tumors collected from 7 patients with cutaneous (n = 3), uveal (n = 2), and acral (n = 2) melanoma subtypes. Experimental Design: Primary tumors, metastases collected longitudinally, and autopsy tissues were interrogated. All but 1 patient died because of melanoma progression. Results: For each patient, we generated phylogenies and quantified the extent of genetic diversity among tumors, specifically among putative somatic alterations affecting therapeutic resistance. Conclusions: In 4 patients who received immunotherapy, we found 1–3 putative acquired and intrinsic resistance mechanisms coexisting in the same patient, including mechanisms that were shared by all tumors within each patient, suggesting that future therapies directed at overcoming intrinsic resistance mechanisms may be broadly effective.

    Abstract: Purpose: To explore factors associated with response and resistance to anti–PD-1 therapy, we analyzed multiple disease sites at autopsy in a patient with widely metastatic melanoma who had a heterogeneous response. Materials and Methods: Twenty-six melanoma specimens (four premortem, 22 postmortem) were subjected to whole exome sequencing. Candidate immunologic markers and gene expression were assessed in 10 cutaneous metastases showing response or progression during therapy. Results: The melanoma was driven by biallelic inactivation of NF1. All lesions had highly concordant mutational profiles and copy number alterations, indicating linear clonal evolution. Expression of candidate immunologic markers was similar in responding and progressing lesions. However, progressing cutaneous metastases were associated with overexpression of genes associated with extracellular matrix and neutrophil function. Conclusions: Although mutational and immunologic differences have been proposed as the primary determinants of heterogeneous response/resistance to targeted therapies and immunotherapies, respectively, differential lesional gene expression profiles may also dictate anti–PD-1 outcomes.

    Abstract: Objective: Multiple large-scale tumor genomic profiling efforts have been undertaken in osteosarcoma, however little is known about the spatial and temporal intratumor heterogeneity and how it may drive treatment resistance. Methods: We performed 30-80x whole genome sequencing (WGS) of 37 tumor samples from 8 patients with relapsed or refractory osteosarcoma. Each patient had at least one sample from a primary site and one sample from a metastatic or relapse site. A set of high confidence single nucleotide variants (SNV), copy number alterations (CNA), structural variations (SV) were called for each sample using our pediatric expanded genomics pipeline and an evolutionary analysis was performed using a custom pipeline of computational tools. Results: Of the 8 patients in our cohort, 4 had localized disease at diagnosis (OSCE4, OSCE5, OSCE6, OSCE9) and 4 had metastatic disease at diagnosis (OSCE1, OSCE2, OSCE3, OSCE10). There were 17 samples from primary sites, 7 were pretreatment biopsies, 10 from on therapy primary resections. 20 samples came from metastatic sites, 15 of which were from lung metastases. Driver gene SNV’s were identified in 5 of 8 patients, including TP53 (OSCE1), ATRX (OSCE3, OSCE10), RB1 (OSCE4), and CDKN2A (OSCE9). There were no new driver SNV’s that emerged post-therapy in any patient. HATCHet, an algorithm that infers clone-specific copy number alterations, identified subclonal CNAs in all but one patient (OSCE2). In the 7 patients with subclonal CNAs, 6 had two copy number clones identified, and 1 patient (OSCE10) had three copy number clones identified. In 5 patients (OSCE1, OSCE4, OSCE5, OSCE6, OSCE10) there is a copy number clone that is subclonal in the primary tumor which emerges and dominates at subsequent relapses. The resistant clone in each of these cases had either MYC gain/amplification. Amplifications in CCNE1 (OSCE1), RAD21 (OSCE4, OSCE5, OSCE10), VEGFA (OSCE1, OSCE9), IGF1R (OSCE6) were also identified as potential drivers in the resistant copy number clones. In two of these patients (OSCE1, OSCE6), this treatment-resistant subclone becomes the dominant copy number clone by the time of primary resection. SNV based phylogenies revealed a heterogenous mix of monoclonal and polyclonal seeding of metastases and monophyletic and polyphyletic modes of dissemination. Over half the new mutations acquired in recurrent disease were attributed to HRD or cisplatin mutational signatures. TP53 structural variants were seen in 6/8 patients (OSCE2, OSCE3, OSCE4, OSCE6, OSCE9, OSCE10). New structural variants involving driver genes were only detected in one relapse sample from patient OSCE10 (DMD deletion). Conclusion: Subclonal copy number clones emerge and dominate in relapsed osteosarcoma, with MYC gain/amplification a defining characteristic in our cohort. Selective pressure from neoadjuvant chemotherapy reveals this clone at the time of primary resection, highlighting that genomic profiling at this time point may be more reflective of its metastatic potential.

    Abstract: Introduction: Regardless of the stage at diagnosis most patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma develop peritoneal disease and some malignant ascites (MA) as well. Prior studies have shown that MA negatively affects overall treatment efficacy and survival. Despite the clinical significance of MA it has not been studied to any great extent. Methods: We collected MA and matched normal tissue samples at autopsy from 20 PDAC patients who were initially diagnosed at stages IIB to IV. Whole exome or targeted sequencing was previously performed on each PDAC. Each MA sample was centrifuged twice at 4000 RPM first and then at 15000 RPM to separate the cell pellet (CP) from the cell-free ascites fluid. We next extracted DNA from the CP, matched normal tissue, and the cell-free DNA (cfDNA) from the ascites fluid, and all were submitted to the Genomics Core for MSK-IMPACT, a targeted cancer gene panel representing 505 genes. Results: Results of the first five patients are complete and the remaining are in process. Comparison of the CPs and/or cfDNA to the matched tumor samples indicated 100% concordance for detected variants. However, the somatic alterations of the CP specifically versus the matched cfDNA were divergent in all patients analyzed thus far. Virtually all copy number alterations in all patients were deep deletions (range 66 to 187 cancer genes deleted) affecting multiple DNA repair pathways including homologous recombination deficiency and microsatellite repair. Conclusions: Samples of MA, when both the cell pellet and cfDNA are sequenced, accurately represent the genetic features of the matched PDAC tissue and may serve as an alternative mode of sampling for precision medicine. Differences in the genetics of the CP versus the cfDNA suggest polyclonality in the peritoneal space. Moreover, the finding of deep deletions in targetable DNA repair pathways suggest a therapeutic vulnerability for exploration. Given that paracentesis is often performed in the palliative setting and may be performed multiple times over the course of a patients’ management, it also offers an opportunity to determine how clonal dynamics in the peritoneal space change over time. Patients with MA have poor overall survival compared to patients without MA so these patients may benefit from this type of tracking which could potentially help with their treatment.

    Abstract: Cancer immunoediting is a hallmark of cancer that predicts T cells recognize and kill tumor cells expressing immunogenic mutations (neoantigens), to induce less immunogenic clones to outgrow in tumors. Although established through longitudinal studies of how tumors evolve in immune-proficient and -deficient mice, whether the human immune system naturally targets neoantigens to edit tumors remains unclear. Here, we investigate how 70 human pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDACs) – a poorly immunogenic cancer with few neoantigens and thus largely presumed to not be subject to immunoediting – evolved over 10 years. We use longitudinal tumor sampling to compare how primary tumors evolve to recurrence in rare long-term PDAC survivors previously shown to have more immunogenic tumors (n = 9 patients, n = 9 primary and 22 recurrent tumors, median survival 5.4 years), to short-term survivors with less immunogenic primary tumors (n = 6 patients, n = 6 primary and 33 recurrent tumors, median survival 1.8 years). Compared to short-term survivors, we observe that long-term survivors evolve fewer recurrent tumors with longer latency, and distinct tissue tropism. To evaluate if differential immune pressures could explain these differences, we perform whole exome sequencing to bioinformatically predict tumor clonal structures and neoantigens. We discover that despite longer times to evolve, long-term survivors evolve genetically less heterogeneous tumors with fewer clones, fewer nonsynonymous mutations, and fewer neoantigens. To identify the edited neoantigens, we sought to improve upon and apply our previously defined quality model that quantifies the immunogenic features of a neoantigen. With our quality model, we now infer a neoantigen is immunogenic (“high quality”) by two parameters – if the immune system can recognize a neoantigen as “non-self” by its similarity to known immunogenic antigens, and discriminate it from “self” by estimating if a neoantigen has sufficient antigenic distance from its wild-type peptide to differentially bind the MHC or activate a T cell. We integrate these features to estimate neoantigen quality in primary and recurrent tumors of long- and short-term survivors. With the quality model, we observe that neoantigens with greater antigenic distance (“less self”) are more depleted in primary and recurrent tumors of long- compared to short-term survivors. Furthermore, we find that long-term survivors evolve markedly fewer new neoantigens of strikingly lower quality, to indicate clones with high quality (more immunogenic) neoantigens are immunoedited. Thus, we submit longitudinal evidence that the human immune system naturally edits neoantigens in PDAC. Furthermore, we present a model that describes how cancer neoantigens evolve under immune pressure over time, with implications for cancer biology and therapy. More broadly, our results argue that immunoediting is a fundamental cancer suppressive mechanism that can be quantified to predict tumor evolution. Citation Format: Luis A.
