Filter by:This is a single institution, prospective study of the whole genome sequencing assay, ChromoSeq. Using prospectively collected patient data, coupled with physician surveys, the investigators seek to determine the feasibility of implementing ChromoSeq in addition to standard genomic testing, for patients with the diagnosis of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS).
This study aims to isolate CTCs in peripheral venous blood of liver cancer patients by inertial focusing principle-based microfluidic device, determine the relationship between the number of CTCs and patient prognosis and treatment response, detect mutation, copy number variation and mutation load in CTC cells and corresponding tissues using single-cell whole genome sequencing technology, and use bioinformatics analysis of CTC heterogeneity and its relationship with clinical outcome. In addition, the culture of CTCs in vitro was explored by organoid culture or sphere culture in order to obtain CTCs cell lines to reveal the metastatic mechanisms of HCC. The partner of this project is Cellomics International Limited, which could provide Cellomics CTC-100 cell sorter and related consumables for this project. Peripheral venous blood from about 300 patients with initial liver cancer will be collected, and CTCs cells will be sorted in 8ml of each patient and typed according to protein expression. Clinical data, treatment effect and survival time of patients will be collected, and finally the relationship between the number of CTCs and subgroup with treatment response and patient prognosis will be analyzed. Uncovering the genomic characteristics of CTCs of HCC provides a new basis for the precise treatment of HCC. The new diagnostic markers for Hcancer were found by miRNA expression spectrum chip and metabolomic testing.In vitro culture methods and cellular characteristics of HCC circulating tumor cells were preliminarily explored.
This is a single institution, prospective study of the whole genome sequencing assay, ChromoSeq. Using prospectively collected patient data, coupled with physician surveys, the investigators seek to determine the feasibility of implementing ChromoSeq in addition to standard genomic testing, for patients with the diagnoses of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS).
2,000 infants with signs suggestive of a genetic disorder being treated at a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) in which African-American and rural populations are highly represented will be enrolled. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) will be used to identify pathogenic variation in DNA from these infants. Stakeholders, including parents, clinicians, and community leaders, will be engaged to develop culturally adapted educational materials and to equip non-genetics providers to return WGS results. Parents will be provided with these materials through a web portal, the Genome Gateway, and will be placed into one of two arms of a randomized trial to compare the effectiveness technology-assisted WGS result delivery by non-genetics providers relative to result delivery from genetic counselors.
The purpose of the study is to identify the genetic closeness of NTM derived from patients living together and from their surrounding environment and to trace the temporal relationship between them.
