Abstract
Abstract
Background
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death, partially owing to its extensive heterogeneity. The analysis of intertumor heterogeneity has been limited by an inability to concurrently obtain tissue from synchronous metastases unaltered by multiple prior lines of therapy.
Methods
In order to study the relationship between genomic, epigenomic and T cell repertoire heterogeneity in a rare autopsy case from a 32-year-old female never-smoker with left lung primary late-stage lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), we did whole-exome sequencing (WES), DNA methylation and T cell receptor (TCR) sequencing to characterize the immunogenomic landscape of one primary and 19 synchronous metastatic tumors.
Results
We observed heterogeneous mutation, methylation, and T cell patterns across distinct metastases. Only TP53 mutation was detected in all tumors suggesting an early event while other cancer gene mutations were later events which may have followed subclonal diversification. A set of prevalent T cell clonotypes were completely excluded from left-side thoracic tumors indicating distinct T cell repertoire profiles between left-side and non left-side thoracic tumors. Though a limited number of predicted neoantigens were shared, these were associated with homology of the T cell repertoire across metastases. Lastly, ratio of methylated neoantigen coding mutations was negatively associated with T-cell density, richness and clonality, suggesting neoantigen methylation may partially drive immunosuppression.
Conclusions
Our study demonstrates heterogeneous genomic and T cell profiles across synchronous metastases and how restriction of unique T cell clonotypes within an individual may differentially shape the genomic and epigenomic landscapes of synchronous lung metastases.

Abstract
Small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) is speculated to harbor complex genomic intratumor heterogeneity (ITH) associated with high recurrence rate and suboptimal response to immunotherapy. Here, using multi-region whole exome/T cell receptor (TCR) sequencing as well as immunohistochemistry, we reveal a rather homogeneous mutational landscape but extremely cold and heterogeneous TCR repertoire in limited-stage SCLC tumors (LS-SCLCs). Compared to localized non-small cell lung cancers, LS-SCLCs have similar predicted neoantigen burden and genomic ITH, but significantly colder and more heterogeneous TCR repertoire associated with higher chromosomal copy number aberration (CNA) burden. Furthermore, copy number loss of IFN-γ pathway genes is frequently observed and positively correlates with CNA burden. Higher mutational burden, higher T cell infiltration and positive PD-L1 expression are associated with longer overall survival (OS), while higher CNA burden is associated with shorter OS in patients with LS-SCLC.

Abstract
Abstract
Sarcomas encompass a rare but highly diverse set of tumor malignancies, contributing disproportionately to years of life lost. Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) has been successful across various tumor types; however, their efficacy and predictability in sarcomas remain unknown. We conducted a translational study using pre- and on-treatment tumor biopsies collected prospectively on a Phase II clinical trial (NCT02815995) evaluating the role of combination anti-PD-L1 and anti-CTLA-4 in 57 patients, enrolled across multiple histologies of metastatic sarcoma. We obtained tumor biopsies at baseline and after 6 weeks of treatment and performed whole-exome, T-cell repertoire (TCR) and RNA-sequencing, along with multiplexed-immunofluorescence (mIF).We deconvoluted substantial variability present in the tumor microenvironment (TME) within sarcomas and found instances of relatively inflamed tumors which failed to respond to ICB. However, amongst those potential molecular correlates of response analyzed, elevated levels of B-cells both at the transcriptome and through validation staining (p = 0.047 and p = 0.022) were most significantly correlated with response. In order to gain more insight into the phenotype and function of B-cells in contributing to response, we inferred BCR-templates and found higher levels of both IGH and IGL diversity (p = 0.0276 and p = 0. 0889 respectively) in responders to ICB. Additionally, we detected increased levels of hyperexpanded IGH clones at the on-treatment time point in patients that responded to therapy (p = 0.048). This B-cell enrichment was validated and found to be predictive of response (p = 0.043) in an independent sarcoma anti-PD-1 treated cohort with matched molecular data. Responsive tumors were also associated with higher levels of TCR richness indicating a strong association of diversity in the TCR of responders (p = 0.047). This work demonstrates the potential for multi-lineage immune cell enrichment and frames the potential molecular features of the TME that may influence response in ICB treated sarcomas.

Abstract
Allosteric inhibitors of mutant IDH1 or IDH2 induce terminal differentiation of the mutant leukemic blasts and provide durable clinical responses in approximately 40% of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients with the mutations. However, primary resistance and acquired resistance to the drugs are major clinical issues. To understand the molecular underpinnings of clinical resistance to IDH inhibitors (IDHi), we perform multipronged genomic analyses (DNA sequencing, RNA sequencing and cytosine methylation profiling) in longitudinally collected specimens from 60 IDH1- or IDH2-mutant AML patients treated with the inhibitors. The analysis reveals that leukemia stemness is a major driver of primary resistance to IDHi, whereas selection of mutations in RUNX1/CEBPA or RAS-RTK pathway genes is the main driver of acquired resistance to IDHi, along with BCOR, homologous IDH gene, and TET2. These data suggest that targeting stemness and certain high-risk co-occurring mutations may overcome resistance to IDHi in AML. The regulation of resistance to IDH inhibitors in acute myeloid leukaemia is not completely understood. Here the authors reveal with integrative multi-omics analyses that stemness features are major drivers of primary resistance, while high-risk mutations drive acquired resistance.

Abstract
In patients with high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC), it is unclear which genomic features are related to complete gross resection (R0), which is typically associated with better clinical outcomes, or response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT). In this study, we evaluated T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire diversity in primary and metastatic tumor samples (n = 90) from clinically well-annotated patients with HGSC who achieved R0 or received NACT with excellent or poor response based on a laparoscopic triage algorithm. TCR sequencing followed by an integrative analysis with comprehensive multi-omics data identified higher TCR diversity (e.g., higher number of unique productive sequences and less clonal relatedness) in the R0 than NACT groups. We found enrichment of specific TCRβ genes usage, distinct mutual exclusiveness and co-occurrence pattern of TCRβ genes among the groups. We also found significantly positive correlations between clonal relatedness and neoantigens, copy number variations, and mutation load in the groups. Higher TCR repertoire diversity in the R0 versus neoadjuvant chemotherapy groups Enrichment of specific TCRβ genes usage was noted among HGSC subgroups Distinct mutual exclusiveness of TCRβ genes was noted among HGSC subgroups Positive correlations between clonal relatedness and copy number variations

Abstract
The integrity of the immune system represents a pivotal risk factor and prognostic biomarker for Merkel cell carcinoma. A higher density of tumor-associated T cells correlates with improved Merkel cell carcinoma-specific survival, but the prognostic importance of the T-cell infiltrate reactivity is unknown. We evaluated the T-cell receptor repertoire associated with 72 primary Merkel cell carcinomas and correlated metrics of the T-cell receptor repertoire with clinicopathologic characteristics and patient outcomes. We showed that a high Simpson's Dominance index (SDom) was significantly associated with fewer metastases (P = 0.01), lower stage at presentation (P = 0.02), lower final stage at last follow-up (P = 0.05), and longer time to first lymph node metastasis (P = 0.04). These correlations were mostly preserved in the Merkel cell polyomavirus-negative subgroup. Combining SDom with CD3+ or CD8+ T-cell density revealed three distinct prognostic groups with respect to disease-specific survival. Patients with both high SDom and high CD3+ or CD8+ T-cell density had markedly improved disease-specific survival compared with patients with low SDom and low CD3+ or CD8+ T-cell density (P = 0.002 and P = 0.03, respectively). Patients with either high SDom or high CD3+ or CD8+ had intermediate disease-specific survival. Our findings demonstrate that the quality of the tumor-associated T-cell infiltrate informs patient prognosis in primary Merkel cell carcinoma beyond the T-cell density.

Abstract
PURPOSE Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is considered an orphan disease with few treatment options. Despite multimodality therapy, the majority of MPMs recur and eventually become refractory to any systemic treatment. One potential mechanism underlying therapeutic resistance may be intratumor heterogeneity (ITH), making MPM challenging to eradicate. However, the ITH architecture of MPM and its clinical impact have not been well studied. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN We delineated the immunogenomic ITH by multiregion whole-exome sequencing and T-cell receptor (TCR) sequencing of 69 longitudinal MPM specimens from nine patients with resectable MPM, who were treated with dasatinib. RESULTS The median total mutation burden before dasatinib treatment was 0.65/Mb, similar with that of post-dasatinib treatment (0.62/Mb). The median proportion of mutations shared by any given pair of two tumor regions within the same tumors was 80% prior to and 83% post-dasatinib treatment indicating a relatively homogenous genomic landscape. T-cell clonality, a parameter indicating T-cell expansion and reactivity, was significantly increased in tumors after dasatinib treatment. Furthermore, on average, 82% of T-cell clones were restricted to individual tumor regions, with merely 6% of T-cell clones shared by all regions from the same tumors indicating profound TCR heterogeneity. Interestingly, patients with higher T-cell clonality and higher portion of T cells present across all tumor regions in post-dasatinib-treated tumors had significantly longer survival. CONCLUSIONS Despite the homogeneous genomic landscape, the TCR repertoire is extremely heterogeneous in MPM. Dasatinib may potentially induce T-cell response leading to improved survival.

Abstract
Complex tumor microenvironmental (TME) features influence the outcome of cancer immunotherapy (IO). Here we perform immunogenomic analyses on 67 intratumor sub-regions of a PD-1 inhibitor-resistant melanoma tumor and 2 additional metastases arising over 8 years, to characterize TME interactions. We identify spatially distinct evolution of copy number alterations influencing local immune composition. Sub-regions with chromosome 7 gain display a relative lack of leukocyte infiltrate but evidence of neutrophil activation, recapitulated in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) samples, and associated with lack of response to IO across three clinical cohorts. Whether neutrophil activation represents cause or consequence of local tumor necrosis requires further study. Analyses of T-cell clonotypes reveal the presence of recurrent priming events manifesting in a dominant T-cell clonotype over many years. Our findings highlight the links between marked levels of genomic and immune heterogeneity within the physical space of a tumor, with implications for biomarker evaluation and immunotherapy response.

Abstract
There has been a dramatic increase in the detection of lung nodules, many of which are preneoplasia atypical adenomatous hyperplasia (AAH), adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS), minimally invasive adenocarcinoma (MIA) or invasive adenocarcinoma (ADC). The molecular landscape and the evolutionary trajectory of lung preneoplasia have not been well defined. Here, we perform multi-region exome sequencing of 116 resected lung nodules including AAH (n = 22), AIS (n = 27), MIA (n = 54) and synchronous ADC (n = 13). Comparing AAH to AIS, MIA and ADC, we observe progressive genomic evolution at the single nucleotide level and demarcated evolution at the chromosomal level supporting the early lung carcinogenesis model from AAH to AIS, MIA and ADC. Subclonal analyses reveal a higher proportion of clonal mutations in AIS/MIA/ADC than AAH suggesting neoplastic transformation of lung preneoplasia is predominantly associated with a selective sweep of unfit subclones. Analysis of multifocal pulmonary nodules from the same patients reveal evidence of convergent evolution. There has been a drastic increase in detection of lung nodules, many of which are precancers, preinvasive, minimally invasive or sometimes invasive lung cancers. Here, Hu et al. perform multi-region exome sequencing to discern the evolutional trajectory from precancers to invasive lung cancers.

Abstract
Abstract
Sustained periods of apparent clinical benefit despite lack of objective response are well known in a subpopulation of advanced melanoma patients. Inter-individual heterogeneity in response of separate tumors is common, characterizing complex overall response patterns. The molecular and cellular dynamics facilitating such long-term survival and heterogeneous response is poorly understood, particularly in the era of exposure to multiple potentially active therapies. We studied an exceptional case of long-term survival in a patient with non-responding metastatic melanoma in order to characterize the clonal and microenvironmental factors active across 3 time points.
We performed immunogenomic analyses of 3 metachronous tumors, including a systemic therapy-naïve mass, 67 intratumor sub-regions of a non-responding mass during PD-1 inhibitor therapy, and a post-PD-1 inhibitor mass. We profiled samples using whole exome sequencing, RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq), immunohistochemistry (IHC), and T cell receptor sequencing. Longitudinal, spatial, and cross-modal analyses were performed.
Longitudinal analyses identified mutations in several genes known to be associated with targeted or immune therapy resistance affecting distinct metastases. Genomic intratumoral heterogeneity (ITH) was primarily driven by subclonal copy number alterations that showed evidence of spatially-distinct evolution which may be in response to selective pressures at the tumor margin. RNA-seq revealed an unexpectedly high degree of ITH characterized by limited group-level gene or pathway associations with physical or immune characteristics of each site. Spatially-distinct pockets of immune activation and suppression were observed throughout the PD-1 inhibitor resistant metastasis despite a largely immune-excluded phenotype seen on IHC. A specific T cell Vβ CDR3 rearrangement was identified as dominant and recurrent not only across multiple spatial points within a single tumor mass, but also across metachronous tumors spanning the patient’s disease course. Immunophenotyping of the T cell population with single-cell RNA-seq suggested repeated T-cell priming events leading to the persistence of both activated and exhausted T cells bearing the same TCR-β at any given time.
Our findings highlight an unexpected level of genomic and immune heterogeneity in metastatic melanoma tumors of a long-term surviving patient. The observed degree of ITH across local tumor microenvironments reiterates the inherent limitations to identifying robust and reproducible predictive biomarkers of therapy response based on limited physical sampling of tumors. Further spatiotemporal analysis of metastatic lesions in the context of immune checkpoint blockade will be required to determine how the mechanisms driving convergent microenvironmental phenotypes may be harnessed for therapeutic gain.

Abstract
Genomic intratumor heterogeneity (ITH) may be associated with postsurgical relapse of localized lung adenocarcinomas. Recently, mutations, through generation of neoantigens, were shown to alter tumor immunogenicity through T-cell responses. Here, we performed sequencing of the T-cell receptor (TCR) in 45 tumor regions from 11 localized lung adenocarcinomas and observed substantial intratumor differences in T-cell density and clonality with the majority of T-cell clones restricted to individual tumor regions. TCR ITH positively correlated with predicted neoantigen ITH, suggesting that spatial differences in the T-cell repertoire may be driven by distinct neoantigens in different tumor regions. Finally, a higher degree of TCR ITH was associated with an increased risk of postsurgical relapse and shorter disease-free survival, suggesting a potential clinical significance of T-cell repertoire heterogeneity.Significance: The present study provides insights into the ITH of the T-cell repertoire in localized lung adenocarcinomas and its potential biological and clinical impact. The results suggest that T-cell repertoire ITH may be tightly associated to genomic ITH and disease relapse.

Abstract
Appreciation for genomic and immune heterogeneity in cancer has grown though the relationship of these factors to treatment response has not been thoroughly elucidated. To better understand this, we studied a large cohort of melanoma patients treated with targeted therapy or immune checkpoint blockade (n = 60). Heterogeneity in therapeutic responses via radiologic assessment was observed in the majority of patients. Synchronous melanoma metastases were analyzed via deep genomic and immune profiling, and revealed substantial genomic and immune heterogeneity in all patients studied, with considerable diversity in T cell frequency, and few shared T cell clones (<8% on average) across the cohort. Variables related to treatment response were identified via these approaches and through novel radiomic assessment. These data yield insight into differential therapeutic responses to targeted therapy and immune checkpoint blockade in melanoma, and have key translational implications in the age of precision medicine. Patients with metastatic melanoma display molecular and immune differences across tumor sites associated with differential drug responses. A team led by Jennifer Wargo from the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, USA, studied the radiological responses of 60 patients with metastatic melanoma, half of whom received targeted drug therapy and half of whom received an immune checkpoint inhibitor. The majority (83%) showed differences in responses across metastases. The group then profiled tumors in a subset, and found molecular and immune heterogeneity in different tumors within the same patient. Heterogeneity in mutational and immune profiles within tumors from individual patients could explain differences in treatment response. Knowing this, the authors emphasize the importance of acquiring biopsies from more than one tumor site in order to best tailor therapies to the features of metastatic cancer.

Abstract
Chronic infection with the hepatitis C virus (HCV) affects 170 million people worldwide and is an important cause of liver-related morbidity and mortality. The standard of care therapy combines pegylated interferon (pegIFN) alpha and ribavirin (RBV), and is associated with a range of treatment-limiting adverse effects. One of the most important of these is RBV-induced haemolytic anaemia, which affects most patients and is severe enough to require dose modification in up to 15% of patients. Here we show that genetic variants leading to inosine triphosphatase deficiency, a condition not thought to be clinically important, protect against haemolytic anaemia in hepatitis-C-infected patients receiving RBV.
