Project description:Cancer cell lines can provide robust and facile biological models for the generation and testing of hypothesis in the early stages of drug development and caner biology. Although clinical trials remain the ultimate scientific testing ground for anticancer therapies, the use of appropriate model systems to explore the molecular basis of drug activity and to identify predictive biomarkers during their development can have a profound effect on the design, cost and ultimate success of new cancer drug development. In order to capture the high degree of genomic diversity in cancer and to identify rare molecular subtypes, we have assembled a collection of >1000 cancer cell lines. These lines have been characterised using whole exome sequencing, genome wide analysis of copy number, mRNA gene expression profiling and DNA methylation analysis (http://cancer.sanger.ac.uk/cell_lines). To further characterise this panel of cell lines we have now compiled data for RNA sequencing. The current study represent data for ~450 of the cell lines in the panel, data for the remaining lines can be accessed via the CGHUB data browser hosted at UCSC. <br>This ArrayExpress record contains only meta-data. Raw data files have been archived at the European Genome-Phenome Archive (EGA, www.ebi.ac.uk/ega) by the consortium, with restricted access to protect sample donors' identity. The relevant accessions of the EGA data set is EGAD00001001357 under EGA study accession EGAS00001000828.
Project description:The CHARM (Cancer Health Assessment Reaching Many) study will assess the utility of clinical exome sequencing and how it affects care in diverse populations. The study population includes adults at risk for hereditary cancer syndromes.
The primary objective is to implement a hereditary cancer risk assessment program in healthy 18-49 year-olds in primary care settings within a vertically integrated health delivery system (Kaiser Permanente) and a federal qualified health center (Denver Health). The investigators will assess clinical exome sequencing implementation and interpretation, as well as tailored interactions for low health literacy including a contextualized consent process, and a modified approach to results disclosure and genetic counseling. The investigators will also assess the clinical utility (healthcare utilization and adherence to recommended care) and personal utility of primary and additional results from clinical exome sequencing, and evaluate the ethical and policy implications of considering personal utility of genomic information decisions for health care coverage.
Project description:This study involves characterization of four head and neck cancer cell lines -- NT8e, OT9, AW13516 and AW8507, established from Indian head and neck cancer patients, using SNP arrays, whole exome and whole transcriptome sequencing.
Project description:Individualized outcome prediction classifiers were successfully constructed through expression profiling of a total of 677 genes in 52 breast cancer samples.
Project description:We profile single cells from patients with colorectum cancer using Chromium 3’ and 5’ single-cell RNA-sequencing. Patients EXT001, EXT009, and EXT012 from the KUL dataset were first analyzed by Lee et al., 2020, and the raw data are available in ArrayExpress under the accession codes E-MTAB-8410 and E-MTAB-8107. Patients EXT018, EXT048, EXT113, and EXT121 from KUL dataset were previously analyzed by Joanito et al., 2022. The raw data of those patients are available in EGA under the accession codes EGAD00001008584 and EGAD00001008585.
Project description:Agilent whole exome hybridisation capture was performed on genomic DNA derived from Chondrosarcoma cancer and matched normal DNA from the same patients. Next Generation sequencing performed on the resulting exome libraries and mapped to build 37 of the human reference genome to facilitate the identification of novel cancer genes. Now we aim to re find and validate the findings of those exome libraries using bespoke pulldown methods and sequencing the products.
