Multi-omic dataset of patient-derived tumor organoids of neuroendocrine neoplasms
Abstract
Background
Organoids are three-dimensional experimental models that summarize the anatomical and functional structure of an organ. Although a promising experimental model for precision medicine, patient-derived tumor organoids (PDTOs) have currently been developed only for a fraction of tumor types.
Results
We have generated the first multi-omic dataset (whole-genome sequencing, WGS, and RNA-sequencing, RNA-seq) of PDTOs from the rare and understudied pulmonary neuroendocrine tumors (n= 12; 6 grade 1, 6 grade 2), and provide data from other rare neuroendocrine neoplasms: small intestine (ileal) neuroendocrine tumors (n= 6; 2 grade 1 and 4 grade 2) and large-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (n= 5; 1 pancreatic and 4 pulmonary). This dataset includes a matched sample from the parental sample (primary tumor or metastasis) for a majority of samples (21/23) and longitudinal sampling of the PDTOs (1 to 2 time-points), for a total ofn= 47 RNA-seq andn= 33 WGS. We here provide quality control for each technique, and provide the raw and processed data as well as all scripts for genomic analyses to ensure an optimal re-use of the data. In addition, we report somatic small variant calls and describe how they were generated, in particular how we used WGS somatic calls to train a random-forest classifier to detect variants in tumor-only RNA-seq.
Conclusions
This dataset will be critical to future studies relying on this PDTO biobank, such as drug screens for novel therapies and experiments investigating the mechanisms of carcinogenesis in these understudied diseases.
