Shotgun sequencing of 5-hydroxymethylcysotine circulating cell-free DNA from the blood distinguishes solid tumor tissues of origin

ABSTRACT: 5-Hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) is an important mammalian DNA epigenetic modification that has been linked to gene regulation and cancer pathogenesis. Here we explored the diagnostic potential of 5hmC in cell-free DNA (cfDNA), the circulating DNA found in human plasma which represents a noninvasive window into the health status of the body. We showed that the genome-wide 5hmC distribution in cfDNA can be reliably sequenced by chemical labeling-based 5hmC enrichment. We sequenced cell-free 5hmC from 49 patients of seven different cancer types and found distinct features that can be used for monitoring disease status and progression. Specifically, we discovered that lung cancer leads to a stage-dependent hypohydroxymethlation in cfDNA, whereas hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and pancreatic cancer lead to disease-specific changes in the cell-free hydroxymethylome. Our results demonstrate that cell-free 5hmC can be used not only to track the stage of cancer but also to identify tissue of origin in some solid tumors.

Cell-free DNA 5-hydroxymethylcytosine as a marker for common cancer detection

Project description:We used a highly sensitive nano-5hmC-Seal method and profiled the genome-wide distribution of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) in plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) from 384 patients with bladder, breast, colorectal, kidney, lung, or prostate cancer and 221 controls. We used machine learning and developed plasma cfDNA 5hmC signatures that are highly sensitive for cancer detection and cancer origin determination. We also identified genes and signaling pathways with aberrant DNA hydroxymethylation in six cancers.

Cell-free DNA 5-hydroxymethylcytosine for immunotherapy response prediction in lung cancer

Project description:Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) drastically improve therapeutic outcomes for lung cancer, but accurate prediction of individual patient responses to ICIs remains a challenge. We performed a genome-wide analysis of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) in plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) samples from 83 lung cancer patients. Using machine learning approaches, we developed a 5hmC signature to predict ICI treatment response and calculated a weighted-predictive score (wp-score) based on the 5hmC levels of signature genes in each sample. A low wp-score was significantly correlated with longer progression-free survival across three independent patient sample sets, and demonstrated superior predictive capability to tumor programmed death-ligand 1. Moreover, we identified novel 5hmC-associated genes and signaling pathways integral to ICI treatment response in lung cancer. Our study suggests that cfDNA 5hmC analysis is a minimally invasive, innovative strategy for guiding treatment selection in lung cancer patients.

Prognostic implications of 5-hydroxymethylcytosines from circulating cell-free DNA in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma

Project description:Elevated level of circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) has been associated with poor prognosis and relapse in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), but the tumor-specific molecular alterations in cfDNA with prognostic significance remain unclear. We investigated the association between 5-hydroxymethylcytosines (5hmC), a mark of active demethylation and gene activation, in cfDNA from blood plasma and prognosis in DLBCL. We used the 5hmC-Seal, a highly sensitive chemical labeling technique, to profile genome-wide 5hmC in plasma cfDNA samples from 48 newly diagnosed patients with DLBCL at the University of Chicago between 2010 and 2012. Patients were followed through December 31, 2017. We found a distinct genomic distribution of 5hmC in cfDNA marking tissue-specific enhancers, consistent with their potential roles in gene regulation. The 5hmC profiles in cfDNA differed by cell-of-origin, and were associated with clinical prognostic features including Ann Arbor stage, serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) level, and the International Prognostic Index (IPI). We developed a 29 gene-based weighted prognostic score (wp-score) for predicting event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS), by applying the elastic net regularization on the Cox proportional hazard model. The wp-scores showed significantly improved prognostic accuracy and/or sensitivity/specificity than the established prognostic factors. In multivariate Cox models, patients with high wp-scores were associated with worse event-free survival (Hazard Ratio [HR] = 9.17, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 2.01- 41.89, p = 0.004), compared with those in the low risk group. Our findings suggest that the 5hmC signatures in cfDNA at the time of diagnosis are associated with clinical outcomes in DLBCL and may provide a novel non-invasive prognostic approach for DLBCL.

5-Hydroxymethylcytosine signals in serum are a predictor of chemoresistance in high-grade serous ovarian cancer

Project description:The genome-wide profiling of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) on circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) has revealed promising biomarkers for a variety of diseases. The purpose of our study is to investigate if 5hmC profiles from serum cfDNA are novel predictive biomarkers for the development of chemoresistance in high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC). We hypothesized that 5-hmC profiles associate with the development of chemoresistance and elucidate pathways that may drive chemoresistance in HGSOC. We developed a novel multivariate model based on clinico-pathologic data and a cfDNA-derived 5hmC-annotated gene that can predict response to platinum-based chemotherapy in intermediate-sensitive HGSOC. These results merit further investigation of our model as a predictive model.

An integrative analysis of genome-wide 5-hydroxymethylcytosines in circulating cell-free DNA detects non-invasive diagnostic markers for gliomas

Project description:Background. Gliomas, especially the high-grade glioblastomas (GBM), are highly aggressive tumors in the central nervous system (CNS) with dismal clinical outcomes. Effective biomarkers, which are not currently available, may improve clinical outcomes through early detection. We sought to develop a non-invasive diagnostic approach for gliomas based on 5-hydroxymethylcytosines (5hmC) in circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA). Methods. We obtained genome-wide 5hmC profiles using the 5hmC-Seal technique in cfDNA samples from 111 prospectively enrolled patients with gliomas and 111 age-, gender-matched healthy individuals, which were split into a training set and a validation set. Integrated models comprised of 5hmC levels summarized for gene bodies, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), cis-regulatory elements, and repetitive elements were developed using the elastic net regularization under a case-control design. Results. The integrated 5hmC-based models differentiated healthy individuals from gliomas (AUC [area under the curve] = 84%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 74-93%), GBM patients (AUC = 84%; 95% CI, 74-94%), WHO II-III glioma patients (AUC = 86%; 95% CI, 76-96%), regardless of IDH1 (encoding isocitrate dehydrogenase) mutation status or other glioma-related pathological features such as TERT, TP53 in the validation set. Furthermore, the 5hmC biomarkers in cfDNA showed the potential as an independent indicator from IDH1 mutation status and worked in synergy with IDH1 mutation to distinguish GBM from WHO II-III gliomas. Exploration of the 5hmC biomarkers for gliomas revealed relevance to glioma biology. Conclusions. The 5hmC-Seal in cfDNA offers the promise as a non-invasive approach for effective detection of gliomas in a screening program.

Bisulfite-free, nano-scale analysis of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine at single base resolution

Project description:High-resolution detection of genome-wide 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) sites of small-scale samples represents a continuous challenge. Here, we present CATCH-seq, a bisulfite-free, base-resolution method for the genome-wide detection of 5hmC. CATCH-seq is based on selective 5hmC oxidation, labeling and subsequent C-to-T transition during PCR. Applications of CATCH-seq to nano-scale DNA samples reveal previously underappreciated non-CG 5hmCs in the hESC genome and base-resolution hydroxymethylome in human cell-free DNA.

DNA 5-hydroxymethylcytosines from cell-free circulating DNA as diagnostic biomarkers for human cancers

Project description:DNA modifications such as 5-methylcytosines (5mC) and 5-hydroxymethylcytosines (5hmC) are epigenetic marks known to affect global gene expression in mammals. Given their prevalence in the human genome, close correlation with gene expression, and high chemical stability, these DNA epigenetic marks could serve as ideal biomarkers for cancer diagnosis. Taking advantage of a highly sensitive and selective chemical labeling technology, we report here genome-wide 5hmC profiling in circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) and paired tumor/adjacent tissues collected from a cohort of 90 healthy individuals and 260 patients recently diagnosed with colorectal, gastric, pancreatic, liver, or thyroid cancer. 5hmC was mainly distributed in transcriptionally active regions coincident with open chromatin and permissive histone modifications. Robust cancer-specific epigenetic signatures in cfDNA were identified in different cancers. 5hmC-based biomarkers demonstrated highly accurate predictive value for patients with colorectal and gastric cancers versus healthy controls, superior to conventional biomarkers, and comparable to epigenetic biomarkers from tissue biopsies. This new strategy could lead to the development of an effective blood-based, minimally-invasive cancer diagnosis and prognosis approach.

Cell free DNA 5-hydroxymethylcytosine as an emerging marker of acute myeloid leukemia

Project description:Aberrant changes in 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) are a unique epigenetic feature in many cancers including acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, genome-wide analysis of 5hmC in plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) remains unexploited in AML patients. We used a highly sensitive and robust nano-5hmC-Seal technology and profiled genome-wide 5hmC distribution in 239 plasma cfDNA samples from 103 AML patients and 81 non-cancer controls. We developed a 5hmC diagnostic model that precisely differentiates AML patients from controls with high sensitivity and specificity. We also developed a 5hmC prognostic model that accurately predicts prognosis in AML patients. High weighted prognostic scores (wp-scores) in AML patients were significantly associated with adverse overall survival (OS) in both training (P = 3.31e-05) and validation (P = .000464) sets. The wp-score was also significantly associated with genetic risk stratification and displayed dynamic changes with varied disease burden. Moreover, we found that high wp-scores in a single gene, BMS1 and GEMIN5 predicted OS in AML patients in both the training set (P =.023 and .031, respectively) and validation set (P = 9.66e-05 and 0.011, respectively). Lastly, our study demonstrated the genome-wide landscape of DNA hydroxymethylation in AML and revealed critical genes and pathways related to AML diagnosis and prognosis. Our data reveal plasma cfDNA 5hmC signatures as sensitive and accurate markers for AML diagnosis and prognosis. Plasma cfDNA 5hmC analysis will be an effective and minimally invasive tool for AML management.

Detection of early stage pancreatic cancer using 5-hydroxymethylcytosine signatures in circulating cell free DNA

Project description:Pancreatic cancers are typically diagnosed at late stage where disease prognosis is poor as exemplified by a 5-year survival rate of 10%. Earlier diagnosis would be beneficial by enabling surgical resection or earlier application of therapeutic regimens. We investigated non-invasive detection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) by interrogating changes in 5-hydroxymethylation cytosines (5hmC) of circulating cell free DNA in the plasma of a PDAC cohort (n=64) in comparison with a non-cancer cohort (n=243). 5hmC density is reduced in promoters and enhancers, whereas it is increased over 3’UTR, intron and TTS regions in PDAC compared to non-cancer cfDNA. Differential hydromethylation is rampant and found in thousands of genes. Stringent filtering by significance reveals genes related to pancreas function or development (GATA4, GATA6, PROX1, ONECUT1, MEIS2), and/or cancer pathogenesis (YAP1, TEAD1, PROX1, ONECUT1, ONECUT2 and IGF1). Furthermore, we observe enrichment for genes that are de-regulated upon activation of KRAS and inactivation of TP53, both of which are commonly observed in PDAC tumors. Regularized regression models, built using 5hmC densities in genes with the most variable 5hmC counts, performed with AUC of 0.92 on discovery dataset and 0.92-0.94 on two independent test sets. Furthermore, investigation of 5hmC occupancy in PDAC tumor tissue revealed that tissue-derived features can be used to accurately classify PDAC cfDNA (AUC=0.88). These findings suggest that 5hmC changes, at least partially derived from tumor tissue, enable classification of PDAC patients with high fidelity and are worth further investigation on larger cohorts of patient samples.
