An enhanced genetic model of relapsed IGH-translocated multiple myeloma evolutionary dynamics.
Hoang, PH; Cornish, AJ; Sherborne, AL; Chubb, D; Kimber, S; et al. (SPRINGERNATURE, 2020-10-14)Most patients with multiple myeloma (MM) die from progressive disease after relapse. To advance our understanding of MM evolution mechanisms, we performed whole-genome sequencing of 80 IGH-translocated tumour-normal newly ... -

Andreou, A; Yngvadottir, B; Bassaganyas, L; Clark, G; Martin, E; et al. (OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2022-08-23)Around 95% of patients with clinical features that meet the diagnostic criteria for von Hippel-Lindau disease (VHL) have a detectable inactivating germline variant in VHL.

(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2022-08-25)Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) occurs in a number of cancer predisposition syndromes, but the genetic architecture of susceptibility to RCC is not well defined. We investigated the frequency of pathogenic and likely pathogenic ... -
Genome-wide association analysis identifies a meningioma risk locus at 11p15.5.
Claus, EB; Cornish, AJ; Broderick, P; Schildkraut, JM; Dobbins, SE; et al. (OXFORD UNIV PRESS INC, 2018-10-09)BACKGROUND: Meningiomas are adult brain tumors originating in the meningeal coverings of the brain and spinal cord, with significant heritable basis. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have previously identified only ... -
Genomic landscape of platinum resistant and sensitive testicular cancers.
Loveday, C; Litchfield, K; Proszek, PZ; Cornish, AJ; Santo, F; et al. (NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-05-04)While most testicular germ cell tumours (TGCTs) exhibit exquisite sensitivity to platinum chemotherapy, ~10% are platinum resistant. To gain insight into the underlying mechanisms, we undertake whole exome sequencing and ... -
Identification of recurrent noncoding mutations in B-cell lymphoma using capture Hi-C.
Cornish, AJ; Hoang, PH; Dobbins, SE; Law, PJ; Chubb, D; et al. (AMER SOC HEMATOLOGY, 2019-01-08)The identification of driver mutations is fundamental to understanding oncogenesis. Although genes frequently mutated in B-cell lymphoma have been identified, the search for driver mutations has largely focused on the ... -

Disney-Hogg, L; Cornish, AJ; Sud, A; Law, PJ; Kinnersley, B; et al. (BMC, 2018-03-15)BACKGROUND: An inverse relationship between allergies with glioma risk has been reported in several but not all epidemiological observational studies.
