TCRB chain convergence in chronic cytomegalovirus infection and cancer /slideshow/tcrb-chain-convergence-in-chronic-cytomegalovirus-infection-and-cancer/141821795 aacr2019-tcrb-chain-convergence-cytomegalovirus-cancer-poster-190423195739
Human cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a common immune-evasive herpes family virus leading to lifelong asymptomatic infection in 50 to 80% of humans. Current research evaluating the use of TCR sequencing to predict response to immunotherapy has focused on measurements of T cell clonal expansion and TCR convergence (2,3,4) as potential predictive biomarkers for response. Given that CMV infection has been reported to elicit large clonal proliferations of CMV reactive T cells (1), and is a source of chronic antigen stimulation, we hypothesized that CMV infection might alter T cell repertoire features in a manner relevant to the potential biomarker use of TCR sequencing. Here we sought to identify features of CMV infection using TCRB profiling of peripheral blood (PBL) total RNA. We identify reduced T cell evenness and elevated TCR convergence as features of chronic CMV infection.]]>

Improvement of TMB Measurement by removal of Deaminated Bases in FFPE DNA /slideshow/improvement-of-tmb-measurement-by-removal-of-deaminated-bases-in-ffpe-dna/141821195 aacr2019-tmb-deamination-ffpe-poster-190423195333
Tumor mutational burden (TMB) is a positive predictive factor for response to immune-checkpoint inhibitors in certain types of cancer. The Oncomineâ„¢ Tumor Mutation Load Assay, a targeted next generation sequencing (NGS) assay, measures TMB (from 1.2Mb of coding region) and detects mutations in 409 cancer genes. The TMB values obtained using targeted sequencing are highly correlated with TMB measured by whole exome sequencing. FFPE preservation methods can lead to significant cytosine deamination of the isolated DNA, resulting in decreased sequencing quality. In these samples, uracils are propagated as thymines and result in false C>T substitutions. Analysis of the Oncomineâ„¢ TML Assay using Torrent Suite and Ion Reporter â„¢ software uniquely estimates the degree of deamination in fixed tissues by measuring C:G>T:A variants. This deamination score is used to assess quality of DNA extracted from FFPE tumor tissue. To minimize the influence that excess deamination has on TMB results, we have incorporated a repair treatment to eliminate damaged targets and improve usable TMB values of DNA from damaged FFPE tumor tissue using Uracil-DNA glycosylase (UDG). The Oncomineâ„¢ TML Assay for TMB on the Ion Gene Studioâ„¢ S5 systems in conjunction with a deamination score is informative and potentially predictive for the use of checkpoint inhibitors in multiple cancer types.]]>

Accurate identification of uropathogens in a timely manner is important to correctly understand urinary tract infections(UTI’s), which affects nearly 150 million people each year. The current standard approach for detecting the UTI pathogens is culture based. This method is time consuming, has low throughput, and can lack sensitivity and/or specificity. In addition, not all uropathogens grow equally well under standard culture conditions which can result in a failure to detect the species. To address these gaps, we have developed a unique workflow from sample preparation to target identification using the nanofluidic OpenArray™ platform for spatial multiplexing of target specific assays. In this study, we tested pre-determined blinded research samples and confirmed the subset of results with orthogonal Sanger sequences.]]>

Liquid biopsy quality control – the importance of plasma quality, sample preparation, and library input for next generation sequencing analysis /slideshow/liquid-biopsy-quality-control-the-importance-of-plasma-quality-sample-preparation-and-library-input-for-next-generation-sequencing-analysis/124936233 liquid-biopsy-qc-poster-181204161552
Liquid biopsy is emerging as a non-invasive companion to traditional solid tumor biopsies. As next generation sequencing (NGS) of circulating cell-free nucleic acids (cfNA = cfDNA and cfRNA) becomes common, it’s important to understand the impact of sample preparation on quality, specificity, and sensitivity of liquid biopsy tests. Plasma samples are often limited, and may have undesirable characteristics such as lipemia or hemolysis that contribute unwanted genomic DNA (gDNA) to the sample. Low cfDNA concentration can also limit the amount available for NGS library prep. In this study, we explore the effects of suboptimal plasma and low library input on liquid biopsy NGS, and discuss various techniques for in-process quality control of cfNA samples isolated from plasma]]>

Plasma samples are often limited, and may have undesirable characteristics such as lipemia or hemolysis that contribute unwanted genomic DNA (gDNA) to the sample. Low cfDNA concentration can also limit the amount available for NGS library prep. In this study, we explore the effects of suboptimal plasma and low library input on liquid biopsy NGS, and discuss various techniques for in-process quality control of cfNA samples isolated from plasma <img style="border:1px solid #C3E6D8;float:right;" alt="" src="https://cdn.slidesharecdn.com/ss_thumbnails/liquid-biopsy-qc-poster-181204161552-thumbnail.jpg?width=120&amp;height=120&amp;fit=bounds" /><br> Liquid biopsy is emerging as a non-invasive companion to traditional solid tumor biopsies.

Targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) panels can detect hundreds of mutations in key genes using amplification based and hybrid-capture based NGS technologies. Although NGS technology is a powerful tool, optimizing and characterizing test performance on hundreds of variants is extremely challenging, time consuming, and expensive. Samples must be sourced, variants identified and orthogonally confirmed, then quantified and diluted. This effort is then multiplied across dozens of samples, and then samples must be run over many runs and days to assess assay reproducibility, precision, sensitivity, etc. In this study, we developed a novel reference material, experimental design, and analysis pipeline that allows for highly streamlined NGS assay characterization, enabling thorough test characterization across 500+ variants within only 6 runs.]]>

MicroRNAs (miRNA) are a class of small non-coding RNAs (approximately 21 nt long) that bind complementary sequences in target mRNAs to specifically regulate gene expression. Aberrant regulation of miRNAs and their targets has been associated with several diseases including cancer. The relationship between miRNA and mRNA has been found to be important in cancer development and progression. Simultaneous expression studies of miRNA and mRNA and detection of mutations in mRNA transcripts can be valuable in understanding molecular mechanisms that have an underlying role in various diseases. We demonstrate the technical verification of a novel method to reverse-transcribe and pre-amplify miRNA and mRNA from sample-limiting serum research samples using the TaqMan® Advanced miRNA cDNA Synthesis Kit. Based on results from previous studies, a signature of 49 mRNA and 37 miRNA targets has been identified that may help distinguish between benign and malignant pancreatic tissues. In this study, these targets and an additional set of transcript mutations were analyzed in serum from normal and test samples. TaqMan assays for miRNA and mRNA targets and custom TaqMan Mutation Detection Assays (TMDAs) were placed on TaqMan Array Cards to facilitate investigation of several samples in a single experiment. Results demonstrate that transcript mutations can be detected and miRNA and mRNA targets can be reliably quantified from a single reverse transcription reaction. For research use only. Not for use in diagnostic purposes.]]>

Simultaneous expression studies of miRNA and mRNA and detection of mutations in mRNA transcripts can be valuable in understanding molecular mechanisms that have an underlying role in various diseases. We demonstrate the technical verification of a novel method to reverse-transcribe and pre-amplify miRNA and mRNA from sample-limiting serum research samples using the TaqMan® Advanced miRNA cDNA Synthesis Kit. Based on results from previous studies, a signature of 49 mRNA and 37 miRNA targets has been identified that may help distinguish between benign and malignant pancreatic tissues. In this study, these targets and an additional set of transcript mutations were analyzed in serum from normal and test samples. TaqMan assays for miRNA and mRNA targets and custom TaqMan Mutation Detection Assays (TMDAs) were placed on TaqMan Array Cards to facilitate investigation of several samples in a single experiment. Results demonstrate that transcript mutations can be detected and miRNA and mRNA targets can be reliably quantified from a single reverse transcription reaction. For research use only.

Identifying novel and druggable targets in a triple negative breast cancer cell line using the Invitrogenâ„¢ LentiArrayâ„¢ Human Kinase CRISPR Library /slideshow/identifying-novel-and-druggable-targets-in-a-triple-negative-breast-cancer-cell-line-using-the-invitrogen-lentiarray-human-kinase-crispr-library/102172998 aacr2018-180612170006
In this study, we developed a CRISPR/Cas9-based high throughput loss-of-function screen for identifying target genes responsible for the tumor proliferation and growth in TNBC. Our initial focus was to identify essential kinases in MDA-MB-231 cell line using the Invitrogenâ„¢ LentiArrayâ„¢ Human Kinase CRISPR Library, which targets 840 kinases with up to 4 different gRNAs per protein kinase for complete gene knockout. This functional screen identified over 90 protein kinases that are essential for cell viability and cell proliferation. Ten of these hits (CDK1, CDK2, CDK8, CDK10, CDK11A, CDK19, CDK19, CDC7, EPHA2 and WEE1) are well-known targets validated in the literature. Currently, we are in the process validating the novel hits through target gene sequencing, western blotting and target specific small molecule kinase inhibitors.]]>

Evidence for antigen-driven TCRβ chain convergence in the melanoma-infiltrating T cell repertoire /slideshow/evidence-for-antigendriven-tcr-chain-convergence-in-the-melanomainfiltrating-t-cell-repertoire/102171921 aacr2018-180612165142
T cell convergence refers to the phenomenon whereby antigen-driven selection enriches for T cell receptors (TCRs) having a shared antigen specificity but different amino acid or nucleotide sequence. T cell recruitment and expansion within the tumor microenvironment (TME) may be directed by responses to tumor neoantigen, suggesting that elevated T cell convergence could be a general feature of the tumor infiltrating T cell repertoire. Here we use the Ion AmpliSeq™ Immune Repertoire Assay Plus – TCRβ to evaluate evidence for T cell convergence within melanoma tumor biopsy research samples from a set of 63 subjects plus peripheral blood leukocytes (PBL) from four healthy subjects. We find that the melanoma TME is highly enriched for convergent TCRs compared to healthy donor peripheral blood. We discuss the potential use of TCR convergence as a liquid biopsy compatible predictive biomarker for immunotherapy response.]]>
