Identifying Genetic Variants Using Computational and Microarray Approaches

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Two methods were used to identify CNVs: computational CNV prediction and microarray CNV detection. CNV prediction was initially performed for the probands. Microarray CNV detection was applied in selected cases where no disease-causing variants were detected after exome sequencing or when CNV prediction data indicated the presence of a relevant CNV (see Supplementary Methods for details). One third of probands had been evaluated via a diagnostic CNV microarray prior to inclusion via 180K aCGH (Agilent technologies, CA, USA) or SNP Array 6.0 (Affymetrix, CA, USA), which did not provide a definitive diagnosis by itself.

Comprehensive Molecular Profiling of Tumors

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Molecular classification, MSI and mutational analysis of tumor-associated genes (APC, TP53, KRAS and B-RafV600E), as well as DNA methylation in CIMP-sensitive promoters was done as described [12 (link), 13 (link), 15 (link)]. All data including staging information compiled from the clinical charts are summarized in Table 1. To classify CIMP, a combined panel covering eight markers was applied. Analyzed markers resulted from those originally described by [16 (link), 17 (link)]. On a basis of this panel, tumors with 1–5/8 methylated promoters are being classified as CIMP-L and with 6–8/8 methylated promoters as CIMP-H [18 (link)]. Chromosomal instability (CIN) was assessed using SNP Array 6.0 from Affymetrix (Cleveland, OH) according to manufacturer’s instructions.

Lung Cancer Subtype Profiling Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Between January 2016 and June 2019, 51 patients diagnosed with LUAD, LUSC, or SCLC were enrolled (Additional file 1: Table S1). Classification was executed according to the 2016 World Health Organization’s guidelines. When available, results were compared with FFPE tissue (n = 39). SBs were mostly taken at primary diagnosis, whilst LBs were sometimes drawn shortly before starting second-line treatment (Additional file 1: Table S2). Negative controls included LBs from healthy subjects (females from routine non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) and healthy males; n = 60) and FFPE samples from benign tissue (n = 9). Other than these in-house cases, public segmental copy number data, derived from SNP array 6.0 (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA) experiments, complemented with clinical information and a list of significantly aberrant loci per histological subtype, were collected from the supplement of the study of Seidel et al., which presents the collective effort from the consortia “Clinical Lung Cancer Genome Project” (CLCGP) and “Network Genomic Medicine” (NGM) [16 ]. This dataset was filtered on histology (exclusively LUAD, LUSC, and SCLC; n = 843).

Mutational Signature Analysis of LUAD and LUSC

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Somatic mutation analysis of LUAD and LUSC tumor samples was based on whole exome sequencing (WES) data. We extracted all the identified mutations and their basic information from the publicly available WES mutation annotation format (MAF) files. R package deconstructSigs (version 1.8.0) was employed to infer the contribution of known mutational signatures to the observed mutation profile within each tumor sample (Rosenthal et al., 2016 (link)). We considered the 30 mutational signatures cataloged at COSMIC (http://cancer.sanger.ac.uk/cosmic/signatures) (Alexandrov et al., 2015 (link)). First, the frequency of mutations observed in the 96 tri-nucleotide contexts was calculated for each sample using the “mut.to.sigs.input” function. Then, weights of the 30 reference mutational signatures were estimated using “whichSignatures” function, with trinucleotide’s occurence normalized from exome to genome level. Based on the initial analysis provided at COSMIC, there are seven major mutational signatures presented in LUAD samples and five major signatures in LUSC, which are possibly associated with smoking, age, APOBEC, etc. To explore the potential role of germline variants in lung cancer immunity development, we acquired SNPs genotyped in TCGA with the Affymetrix SNP Array 6.0 from the GDC Legacy Archive portal (https://portal.gdc.cancer.gov/legacy-archive).

Comparison of Copy Number Profiling

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A total of 31 kidney cancer samples (KIRC) from the Firehose database on GDC’s TCGA were selected based on the status of their VHL-coding region on the short arm of chromosome 3 (3p). All 31 samples were selected to contain deep 3p deletions associated with clear cell renal cell carcinomas. The corresponding Illumina 450k BeadChip IDAT files were downloaded from TCGA. A further 50 low-grade glioma (LGG), subtype oligodendroglioma, samples were also downloaded from the Firehose database. Twenty-five samples are histologically defined oligodendrogliomas and contained codeletion of the short arm of chromosome 1 and the long arm of chromosome 19 (1p/19q), and the other twenty-five samples were astrocyte-like oligodendrogliomas that were copy-number neutral in these regions (Li et al., 2016 (link)). The Affymetrix SNP Array 6.0 (“gold standard”) copy number segmentation data corresponding to the above data was also downloaded from TCGA.
All testing was performed on a Dell Precision 5,820 Tower X-series workstation running Windows 10 Pro 64bit and R 4.1.2. 128 GB of useable RAM and an Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-10900X CPU x64 processor @ 3.70 GHz. All analyses were performed only using a single core as some packages set multiple cores for the analysis; we wanted to ensure equal computational resources were allocated for each routine.

SNP Analysis of Normal and Tumor Tissues

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For SNP analysis, SNPs were obtained using Affymetrix® SNP Array 6.0 (each has more than 906,600 SNPs). After excluding SNPs with allele frequency <1% (157,703 SNPs) or call rate <90% (123 SNPs), 748,774 SNPs were further analyzed by McNemar-Bowker’s test to examine the difference of genotypes between normal and tumor tissues from the same subject. SNPs were coded according to the number of minor alleles, i.e., AA, Aa and aa, denoted as 0, 1, 2, respectively. The nonparametric McNemar-Bowker’s test was applied to examine the association between SNPs and tissues. The analyses were done in R version 2.9.0.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The allele-specific copy number of the diagnostic sample from patient #10793 was obtained using Affymetrix SNP Array 6.0 with 680-bp median intermarker spacing. For this, 500 ng of genomic DNA isolated from the diagnostic and remission samples was used as input. Raw signal intensities were analyzed using Partek Genomics Suite. First, probe intensities were adjusted for a number of properties that are correlated with intensity, including fragment length, GC content, and other sequence-based hybridization bias. After quantile normalization, paired analysis was performed to generate allele-specific copy numbers by comparing the diagnostic sample to the remission sample.
