Pediatric High Grade Glioma Resources From the Children’s Brain Tumor Tissue Consortium (CBTTC) and Pediatric Brain Tumor Atlas (PBTA)

Abstract: Background: Pediatric high grade glioma (pHGG) remains a fatal disease. Increased access to richly annotated biospecimens and patient derived tumor models will accelerate pHGG research and support translation of research discoveries. This work describes the pediatric high grade glioma set of the Children's Brain Tumor Tissue Consortium (CBTTC) from the first release (October 2018) of the Pediatric Brain Tumor Atlas (PBTA).Methods: pHGG tumors with associated clinical data and imaging were prospectively collect… Show more

“…Hedgehog, TNFα , and p53 signaling were enriched in these models (Figure 5B). Interestingly, three astrocytic tumors harbored SMARCB1 hemizygous deletions, which have not been reported but are present in multiple pediatric high-grade glioma cohorts (Mackay et al, 2017: 6.7%, n = 834; Ijaz et al, 2019: 7.5%, n = 93) and may warrant further investigation. One astrocytic model, IC-1621GBM, was generated from a patient with DNA mismatch repair deficiency syndrome and showed 124 somatic mutations per medulloblastoma (MB) (Table S3).…”

“…The Children’s Brain Tumor Tissue Consortium (CBTTC) ( https://cbttc.org ) is an international, collaborative, and multi-institutional research program dedicated to studying childhood brain tumors 8 . CBTTC efforts include providing open access genomics data on pediatric brain tumors to the research community to more fully elucidate these tumors’ molecular landscape.…”

“…As proof of concept, we utilized RNA expression generated by STAR-RSEM [ 42 ] and fusion calls generated by Arriba v1.1.0 [ 15 ] and/or STAR-Fusion 1.5.0 [ 14 ] which were released as part of the Pediatric Brain Tumor Atlas [ 43 ]. Briefly, RNA from fresh-frozen tissue was extracted and libraries were prepped and sequenced at 2 × 100 or 2 × 150 bp to an average of 200 M+ total reads, and at least 60% of reads were required to map to the human genome for fusion analysis to proceed.…”
