The Human Tumor Atlas Network's beginning steps toward the future of collaborative multi-omic discovery

David B Page. Cell Rep Med. .

Abstract

The Human Tumor Atlas Network is a multi-institutional effort to generate genomic and histologic datasets spanning thousands of patients. Johnson et al., in this issue of Cell Reports Medicine, illustrate how disparate data types from a single case can be combined to discover novel therapeutic directions.

Hypothesized mechanism of tumor outgrowth following capecitabine exposure Combined DNA and RNA transcriptional profiling of serial biopsies (Bx2, Bx3, Bx4) revealed an acquired amplification of a region of chromosome 18 encoding TYMS and YES1. TYMS is the molecular target of capecitabine, and upregulation may confer therapeutic resistance, whereas YES1 is a putatively oncogenic receptor tyrosine kinase. A later biopsy (Bx4) redemonstrated co-amplification, but showed increasing YES1 expression, suggesting a YES1-mediated mechanism of tumor outgrowth.
