Abstract

Background SQZ-PBMC-HPV is a therapeutic cancer vaccine created with Cell Squeeze®, a proprietary cell-engineering system. SQZ-PBMC-HPV is a novel cancer vaccine generated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) squeezed with HPV16 E6 and E7 antigens, resulting in delivery into the cytosol. The resulting antigen presenting cells (APCs) provide enhanced antigen presentation on MHC-I to potentially elicit robust, antigen-specific CD8+ T cell responses. Importantly, SQZ-PBMC-HPV are neither genetically modified nor immune effector cells.Studies in MHC-I knockout mice demonstrated that activation of antigen specific CD8+ tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) was a direct effect of cytosolic antigen delivery to PBMCs. In the murine TC-1 tumor model, tumor regression correlated with an influx of HPV16-specific CD8+ TILs. In vitro studies with human volunteer PBMCs demonstrated that each subset is capable of inducing CD8+ T cell responses. The Phase 1 study includes a significant biomarker program to investigate whether pharmacodynamic effects observed in non-clinical studies correlate with potential clinical benefit. Immunogenic and pharmacodynamic endpoints include Elispot assays to measure frequency of interferon gamma secreting cells, as well as quantification and characterization of TILs and tumor microenvironment. In addition, various cytokine responses and circulating cell-free HPV16 DNA levels in plasma are measured. Methods SQZ-PBMC-HPV-101 (NCT04084951) is open for enrollment to HLA A*02+ patients with HPV16+ recurrent, locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors and includes escalation cohorts for monotherapy and in combination with atezolizumab. After initial demonstration of safety, the study assesses dose effect by testing different cell dose levels, the effect of prolonged antigen priming in Cycle 1 [APC administration on Day 1 only compared to Days 1 and 2 (double priming)] and the impact of treatment duration to identify the optimal dose regimen. The cycle length is 3 weeks, and patients will receive SQZ-PBMC-HPV for up to 1 year or until available autologous drug product is exhausted. Atezolizumab will be administered for up to 1 year. Eligible patients including but not limited to anal, cervical and head and neck tumors will undergo a single leukapheresis at the study site. The manufacturing process includes a maturation step and takes less than 24 hours. The vein-to-vein time for the 1st administration is approximately one week. Patients must have a lesion that can be biopsied with acceptable clinical risk and agree to have a fresh biopsy at Screening and on study. A Study Safety Committee is in place. No formal statistical hypothesis testing will be performed.

Abstract

Microsatellite instability (MSI) arises from defects in the mismatch repair (MMR) system and is associated with hypermutability of short DNA sequence repeats. Defects in MMR are observed in diverse cancer types but are common in colorectal, gastric and endometrial cancers. MSI testing is increasingly important for patient management. For example, in diverse cancer types, MSI is associated with favorable response to immune checkpoint inhibitors. The mainstay of MSI testing has been PCR/fragment analysis or IHC to monitor loss of expression of MMR proteins. Although generally robust, these methods are single biomarker tests that may consume limited biopsy samples. For this reason, MSI testing has been recently incorporated into NGS tests. However, targeted amplicon based NGS tests for MSI that consume limited sample input and provide fast turn-around time remain an unmet need. Herein, we describe a targeted NGS-based method to assess MSI that leverages Ion AmpliSeq™ or Ion AmpliSeq™ HD multiplex PCR and Ion GeneStudio™ S5 next-generation sequencing. The test is comprised of diverse microsatellite markers including mono- and di-nucleotide repeats that range from 10 to 40 bp. A novel algorithm was developed that leverages the unique signal processing properties inherent in semi-conductor sequencing and workflows were developed for tumor only samples as well as paired tumor-normal samples. The test provides results for individual microsatellites and generates an MSI score for the sample. The performance of the assay was verified over a large cohort of colorectal, gastric and endometrial cancer samples with MSI status independently assigned by orthogonal on-market tests. The MSI panel can be used by itself or integrated into larger targeted sequencing panels. MSI tests that leverage the inherent advantages of targeted semiconductor sequencing, low sample input and fast turn-around time, will support expanded research opportunities into the association of MSI with other targeted alterations and help elucidate the interaction of MSI, DNA repair defects, and the response to immune checkpoint inhibition.

Abstract

We report a high-quality draft of the genome sequence of the grey, short-tailed opossum (Monodelphis domestica). As the first metatherian ('marsupial') species to be sequenced, the opossum provides a unique perspective on the organization and evolution of mammalian genomes. Distinctive features of the opossum chromosomes provide support for recent theories about genome evolution and function, including a strong influence of biased gene conversion on nucleotide sequence composition, and a relationship between chromosomal characteristics and X chromosome inactivation. Comparison of opossum and eutherian genomes also reveals a sharp difference in evolutionary innovation between protein-coding and non-coding functional elements. True innovation in protein-coding genes seems to be relatively rare, with lineage-specific differences being largely due to diversification and rapid turnover in gene families involved in environmental interactions. In contrast, about 20% of eutherian conserved non-coding elements (CNEs) are recent inventions that postdate the divergence of Eutheria and Metatheria. A substantial proportion of these eutherian-specific CNEs arose from sequence inserted by transposable elements, pointing to transposons as a major creative force in the evolution of mammalian gene regulation.

Abstract

Affiliations des auteurs : cf page 216 de l'article; International audience; Comparative analysis of multiple genomes in a phylogenetic framework dramatically improves the precision and sensitivity of evolutionary inference, producing more robust results than single-genome analyses can provide. The genomes of 12 Drosophila species, ten of which are presented here for the first time (sechellia, simulans, yakuba, erecta, ananassae, persimilis, willistoni, mojavensis, virilis and grimshawi), illustrate how rates and patterns of sequence divergence across taxa can illuminate evolutionary processes on a genomic scale. These genome sequences augment the formidable genetic tools that have made Drosophila melanogaster a pre-eminent model for animal genetics, and will further catalyse fundamental research on mechanisms of development, cell biology, genetics, disease, neurobiology, behaviour, physiology and evolution. Despite remarkable similarities among these Drosophila species, we identified many putatively non-neutral changes in protein-coding genes, non-coding RNA genes, and cis-regulatory regions. These may prove to underlie differences in the ecology and behaviour of these diverse species.

Abstract

Here we present a finished sequence of human chromosome 15, together with a high-quality gene catalogue. As chromosome 15 is one of seven human chromosomes with a high rate of segmental duplication, we have carried out a detailed analysis of the duplication structure of the chromosome. Segmental duplications in chromosome 15 are largely clustered in two regions, on proximal and distal 15q; the proximal region is notable because recombination among the segmental duplications can result in deletions causing Prader-Willi and Angelman syndromes. Sequence analysis shows that the proximal and distal regions of 15q share extensive ancient similarity. Using a simple approach, we have been able to reconstruct many of the events by which the current duplication structure arose. We find that most of the intrachromosomal duplications seem to share a common ancestry. Finally, we demonstrate that some remaining gaps in the genome sequence are probably due to structural polymorphisms between haplotypes; this may explain a significant fraction of the gaps remaining in the human genome.

Abstract

Here we report a high-quality draft genome sequence of the domestic dog (Canis familiaris), together with a dense map of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) across breeds. The dog is of particular interest because it provides important evolutionary information and because existing breeds show great phenotypic diversity for morphological, physiological and behavioural traits. We use sequence comparison with the primate and rodent lineages to shed light on the structure and evolution of genomes and genes. Notably, the majority of the most highly conserved non-coding sequences in mammalian genomes are clustered near a small subset of genes with important roles in development. Analysis of SNPs reveals long-range haplotypes across the entire dog genome, and defines the nature of genetic diversity within and across breeds. The current SNP map now makes it possible for genome-wide association studies to identify genes responsible for diseases and traits, with important consequences for human and companion animal health.

Abstract

The International Human Genome Sequencing Consortium (IHGSC) recently completed a sequence of the human genome. As part of this project, we have focused on chromosome 8. Although some chromosomes exhibit extreme characteristics in terms of length, gene content, repeat content and fraction segmentally duplicated, chromosome 8 is distinctly typical in character, being very close to the genome median in each of these aspects. This work describes a finished sequence and gene catalogue for the chromosome, which represents just over 5% of the euchromatic human genome. A unique feature of the chromosome is a vast region of approximately 15 megabases on distal 8p that appears to have a strikingly high mutation rate, which has accelerated in the hominids relative to other sequenced mammals. This fast-evolving region contains a number of genes related to innate immunity and the nervous system, including loci that appear to be under positive selection--these include the major defensin (DEF) gene cluster and MCPH1, a gene that may have contributed to the evolution of expanded brain size in the great apes. The data from chromosome 8 should allow a better understanding of both normal and disease biology and genome evolution.

Abstract

Phospholipase C(gamma)1 (PLC-gamma1), a tyrosine kinase substrate, is a multi-domain molecule that modulates the intracellular levels of the second messenger molecules: Ca2+ and diacylglycerol. Although a wide variety of growth factor receptor tyrosine kinases phosphorylate and activate PLC-gamma1, the biological role and necessity of this signal transduction element in mitogenesis has remained unclear. Recent results, however, point to a more essential role than was suggested by initial studies. Also, biochemical studies have indicated a putative means for the intramolecular repression of PLC-gamma1 activity and provide a means for interpreting activation signals through a derepression mechanism.

Abstract

Consistent loss of DNA sequences from several regions on the short arm of human chromosome 3 has suggested that multiple tumor suppressor genes reside on chromosome 3p in various types of cancer cells. We have focused our efforts on an analysis of chromosomal band 3p21.1 since aminoacylase-1 (ACY1), which is localized to this band, has been shown to have lower levels of expression in several small cell and non-small cell lung cancer cell lines. Starting with two cosmids within 3p21.1, D3S92 and D3S93, we have isolated two separate contigs of overlapping cosmids within 3p21.1, by screening a library of 5700 chromosome 3-specific cosmid clones. Detailed restriction maps for these two contigs show that they contain multiple clusters of rare cutting restriction endonuclease sites. One contig extends for 100 kb and encompassed both ACY1 and D3S92, and the other extends about 80 kb around the D3S93 locus. Many different restriction fragments derived from these two contigs were found to be evolutionarily conserved and hybridized to distinct message transcripts. These fragments were used to identify homologous cDNAs from an adenogastric cDNA library, and several of these cDNAs were partially sequenced. We have identified five new genes from these two contigs and there is evidence to suggest that several additional genes reside within these cosmid contigs. The genes identified from 3p21.1 were then hybridized to DNA, isolated from a series of lung cancer cell lines and matched normal and tumor DNA from lung cancer patients. No alterations were detected with any of these probes, both at the DNA or RNA levels. A similar analysis with DNA fragments derived from these two genomic regions also failed to detect any alterations.

Abstract

Background: Cornea is the most important refractive media in the eye, and damage to the corneal endothelium is one of the most common causes of poor visual outcome following cataract surgery, particularly in those with predisposing factors. The role of phaco tip position during phacoemulsification on corneal endothelial damage is ambiguous, and there is no consensus regarding the most cornea-friendly phaco tip position (bevel-up or bevel-down). The objective of the trial is to compare the effect of phaco tip position (bevel-up vs. bevel-down) during phacoemulsification using direct chop technique on corneal endothelial cell count. Methods and design: TIPS is a randomised, multicentre, parallel-group, triple-masked (participant, outcome assessor, and statistician) trial with 1:1 allocation ratio. A total of 480 eligible participants, aged > 18 years with immature cataract, will be randomly allocated into bevel-up and bevel-down groups at two centres. Randomisation will be stratified according to the cataract grade. The primary outcome is postoperative endothelial cell count at 1 month. Secondary outcomes are central corneal thickness on postoperative days 1, 15, and 30 and difference in intraoperative complications. Conclusion: In this paper, we describe the detailed statistical analysis plan (SAP) for the TIPS trial, which was prepared prior to database lock. The SAP includes details of planned analyses and unpopulated tables, which will be reported in the publications. We plan to lock the database in July 2023 and publish the results later in the same year.

Abstract

Postoperative incisional pain following lower segment cesarean section (LSCS) is one of the commonly reported complaints which may affect mother-infant bonding, and restrict mobility and functional activities. To study the influence of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) on pain intensity and functional activities using the Numerical Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) and the Patient Specific Functional Scale (PSFS) following LSCS from the postoperative day (POD) 1 to POD 4. This quasi-experimental study consisted of 50 postpartum women who underwent LSCS and were assigned to an intervention group (IG) that received TENS and a control group (CG) that received routine hospital care. NPRS scores between CG and IG (pre-TENS application) showed a statistically significant difference (ηp2 = 0.542, p <.001) from POD 1 to POD 4. Study participants showed an improvement in PSFS scores (ηp2 = 0.412, 0.488, 0.661, 0.304, 0.262, and 0.395, p <.001) in IG compared to CG for bed transitions, bed transfers, sitting, sit to stand, walking, and toileting activities respectively from POD 1 to POD 4 which was statistically significant. Our study results suggest that administration of TENS following LSCS shows an improvement in pain intensity and functional activities as reported on NPRS and PSFS respectively.

Abstract

Background: Neovascularization in the retina and hyperglycaemia-induced oxidative stress are implicated in the pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy (DR). In this study, we hypothesized that the plasma angiogenic and oxidative stress markers associated with these derangements could aid in the screening of diabetic patients who are at an increased risk of developing retinopathy. Methods: This study included normal (n = 148), type2 diabetes without retinopathy (DNR; n = 148), proliferative DR (PDR; n = 74) and non-PDR (NPDR; n = 148) subjects. Plasma concentrations of vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A), hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF), nitric oxide (NO), soluble receptors for advanced glycation end products (sRAGE), malondialdehyde (MDA) and protein thiols were estimated. Results: A statistically significant increase was observed in the plasma concentrations of pro-angiogenic factors and markers of oxidative stress in both retinopathy groups. By contrast, the concentrations of anti-angiogenic factors and antioxidants were decreased significantly in these groups. Receiver operating characteristic analysis indicated that the plasma thresholds of HIF-1α and PEDF can be suitable markers in case of NPDR. However, in PDR, HIF-1α, NO, MMP-9 and PEDF showed high sensitivity and specificity. Conclusions: The factors associated with hypoxia, matrix degradation and angiogenic inhibition play a crucial role in predicting DR. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
