Next-generation prostate cancer biobanking: toward a processing protocol amenable for the International Cancer Genome Consortium.

ABSTRACT: Next-generation DNA and RNA sequencing requires intact nucleic acids from high-quality human tissue samples to better elucidate the molecular basis of cancer. We have developed a prostate biobanking protocol to acquire suitable samples for sequencing without compromising the accuracy of clinical diagnosis. To assess the clinical implications of implementing this protocol, we evaluated 105 consecutive radical prostatectomy specimens from November 2008 to February 2009. Alternating levels of prostate samples were submitted to Surgical Pathology as formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded blocks and to the institutional biobank as frozen blocks. Differences in reported pathologic characteristics between clinical and procured specimens were compared. Clinical staging and grading were not affected by the biobank protocol. Tumor foci on frozen hematoxylin and eosin slides were identified and high-density tumor foci were scored and processed for DNA and RNA extractions for sequencing. Both DNA and RNA were extracted from 22 cases of 44 with high-density tumor foci. Eighty-two percent (18/22) of the samples passed rigorous quality control steps for DNA and RNA sequencing. To date, DNA extracted from 7 cases has undergone whole-genome sequencing, and RNA from 18 cases has been RNA sequenced. This protocol provides prostate tissue for high-throughput biomedical research and confirms the feasibility of actively integrating prostate cancer into The Cancer Genome Atlas Program, a member of the International Cancer Genome Consortium.

Project description:BackgroundsGlomerular diseases, a set of debilitating and complex disease entities, are related to mortality and morbidity. To gain insight into pathophysiology and novel treatment targets of glomerular disease, various types of biospecimens linked to deep clinical phenotyping including clinical information, digital pathology, and well-defined outcomes are required. We provide the rationale and design of the KOrea Renal biobank NEtwoRk System TOward Next-generation analysis (KORNERSTONE).MethodsThe KORNERSTONE, which has been initiated by Korea Centres for Disease Control and Prevention, is designed as a multi-centre, prospective cohort study and biobank for glomerular diseases. Clinical data, questionnaires will be collected at the time of kidney biopsy and subsequently every 1 year after kidney biopsy. All of the clinical data will be extracted from the electrical health record and automatically uploaded to the web-based database. High-quality digital pathologies are obtained and connected in the database. Various types of biospecimens are collected at baseline and during follow-up: serum, urine, buffy coat, stool, glomerular complementary DNA (cDNA), tubulointerstitial cDNA. All data and biospecimens are processed and stored in a standardised manner. The primary outcomes are mortality and end-stage renal disease. The secondary outcomes will be deterioration renal function, remission of proteinuria, cardiovascular events and quality of life.DiscussionEthical approval has been obtained from the institutional review board of each participating centre and ethics oversight committee. The KORNERSTONE is designed to deliver pioneer insights into glomerular diseases. The study design allows comprehensive, integrated and high-quality data collection on baseline laboratory findings, clinical outcomes including administrative data and digital pathologic images. This may provide various biospecimens and information to many researchers, establish the rationale for future more individualised treatment strategies for glomerular diseases.Trial registrationNCT03929887 .
