Popis: e15672 Background: The rise of precision oncology therapeutics requires deep understanding of all molecular mechanisms involved in cancer biology. IndivuType offers the world’s first multi-omics database for individualized cancer therapy, analyzing the highest quality cancer biospecimens to generate the most comprehensive dataset, including genomics (WGS), transcriptomics, proteomics, and clinical outcome information. Indivumed is committed to the quality of the IndivuType ecosystem starting with stringent SOP-driven sample collection combined with thorough validation of clinical information and data integrity. The availability of multi-omics data from the same tumor can provide a comprehensive molecular picture of cancer for a given patient. Protein expression and activation are directly related to cellular function and hence provide actionable information about druggable targets. Until recently, the proteomics technology could not match the scale of next-gen sequencing and consequently precision medicine has almost exclusively been based on gene level data. Here we present the first large-scale data set for protein expression and phosphorylation. Enabled by the data independent acquisition (DIA) workflow, a mass spectrometric method provided by Biognosys that obtains peptide fragmentation data in a highly parallelized way with high sensitivity, more than 7,000 proteins in the whole proteome (WP) and 20,000 phospho-peptides in the phospho-proteome (PP) workflow were profiled. Methods: Sample processing from 5 mg of tissue per sample was performed using liquid handling robot. Phospho-peptide enrichment was carried out with a Kingfisher Flex device and MagReSyn Ti-IMAC magnetic beads. DIA LC-MS/MS was performed on multiple platforms consisting of a Thermo Scientific Q Exactive HF-X mass spectrometer coupled to a Waters M-Class LC. Chromatography was operating at 5 µL/min, and separation was achieved using 45 min (WP) and 60 min (PP) gradients. Results: Several thousands of high-quality patient samples of various cancer types have been analyzed to date. The resulting proteome and phospho-proteome data has been integrated into the IndivuType database, thereby providing a solid foundation to advance our understanding of cancer. Conclusions: With the ongoing addition of more samples and associated deep and rich data, the platform could unravel key molecular events and is expected to transform knowledge into actionable treatments and personalized therapies.
