- Cancer is driven by genetic change, and the advent of massively parallel sequencing has enabled systematic documentation of this variation at the whole-genome scale1–3. Here we report the integrative analysis of 2,658 whole-cancer genomes and their matching normal tissues across 38 tumour types from the Pan-Cancer Analysis of Whole Genomes (PCAWG) Consortium of the International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). We describe the generation of the PCAWG resource, facilitated by international data sharing using compute clouds. On average, cancer genomes contained 4–5 driver mutations when combining coding and non-coding genomic elements; however, in around 5% of cases no drivers were identified, suggesting that cancer driver discovery is not yet complete. Chromothripsis, in which many clustered structural variants arise in a single catastrophic event, is frequently an early event in tumour evolution; in acral melanoma, for example, these events precede most somatic point mutations and affect several cancer-associated genes simultaneously. Cancers with abnormal telomere maintenance often originate from tissues with low replicative activity and show several mechanisms of preventing telomere attrition to critical levels. Common and rare germline variants affect patterns of somatic mutation, including point mutations, structural variants and somatic retrotransposition. A collection of papers from the PCAWG Consortium describes non-coding mutations that drive cancer beyond those in the TERT promoter4; identifies new signatures of mutational processes that cause base substitutions, small insertions and deletions and structural variation5,6; analyses timings and patterns of tumour evolution7; describes the diverse transcriptional consequences of somatic mutation on splicing, expression levels, fusion genes and promoter activity8,9; and evaluates a range of more-specialized features of cancer genomes8,10–18.

- Das zunehmende Verständnis molekularer Grundlagen von Tumoren sowie der Fortschritt in der Diversifizierung der onkologischen Therapien versprechen individualisierte Therapieoptionen, welche bislang jedoch nur ansatzweise in die Therapieplanung von urologischen Tumoren eingegangen sind. Daher hat die Internationale Gesellschaft für Urologische Pathologie (ISUP) im März 2019 eine Konsenskonferenz zur Erarbeitung evidenzbasierter Handlungsempfehlungen zur molekularpathologischen Diagnostik beim Urothelkarzinom, Nierenzellkarzinom, Prostatakarzinom, Peniskarzinom und testikulären Keimzelltumoren durchgeführt. Die auf dieser Konsenskonferenz erarbeiteten Empfehlungen sind kürzlich in 5 separaten Manuskripten veröffentlich worden und werden in der vorliegenden Arbeit zusammengefasst.Im Rahmen der Konferenzvorbereitung wurde eine umfassende Umfrage zur derzeitigen Praxis molekularer Testungen bei urogenitalen Tumoren unter den Mitgliedern der ISUP durchgeführt. Auf der Konferenz wurden die Ergebnisse und die entsprechenden Hintergrundinformationen durch 5 Arbeitsgruppen präsentiert und Handlungsempfehlungen für die Diagnostik erarbeitet. Eine Übereinstimmung von 66 % der Konferenzteilnehmer wurde als Konsens definiert.

Hallmark discoveries in the biology of Wilms tumour

Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- The modern study of Wilms tumour was prompted nearly 50 years ago, when Alfred Knudson proposed the ‘two-hit’ model of tumour development. Since then, the efforts of researchers worldwide have substantially expanded our knowledge of Wilms tumour biology, including major advances in genetics — from cloning the first Wilms tumour gene to high-throughput studies that have revealed the genetic landscape of this tumour. These discoveries improve understanding of the embryonal origin of Wilms tumour, familial occurrences and associated syndromic conditions. Many efforts have been made to find and clinically apply prognostic biomarkers to Wilms tumour, for which outcomes are generally favourable, but treatment of some affected individuals remains challenging. Challenges are also posed by the intratumoural heterogeneity of biomarkers. Furthermore, preclinical models of Wilms tumour, from cell lines to organoid cultures, have evolved. Despite these many achievements, much still remains to be discovered: further molecular understanding of relapse in Wilms tumour and of the multiple origins of bilateral Wilms tumour are two examples of areas under active investigation. International collaboration, especially when large tumour series are required to obtain robust data, will help to answer some of the remaining unresolved questions.
