Abstract

Abstract Pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest cancers and the five-year survival rate is less than 10%. Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) represents more than 90% of all pancreatic malignancies, and is responsible for the majority of pancreatic cancer-related deaths. Towards understanding the underlying molecular alterations that drive PDAC oncogenesis and identify therapeutic targets for personalized treatments, we comprehensively characterized 140 pancreatic cancers and 67 normal adjacent tissues. To ensure robust, downstream analyses, tumor neoplastic cellularity was assessed via multiple, orthogonal strategies using molecular features, and verified via pathological estimation of tumor cellularity based on histological review to select tumors with sufficient tumor cellularity. We also included the analysis of 9 normal pancreatic ductal tissues. Proteomic, phosphoproteomic, and glycoproteomic analyses were used to characterize proteins and their modifications. In addition, whole genome sequencing, whole exome sequencing, methylation, RNA-seq, and miRNA-seq were performed on the same tissues to facilitate an integrated proteogenomic analysis and determine the impact of genomic alterations on protein expression, signaling pathways, and post-translational modifications. These characterizations revealed functional impacts of genomic and epigenomic alterations on proteins and protein modifications, delineated PDAC cell microenvironment compositions and the immune signatures for immunotherapy, also uncovered putative kinase inhibitors that could be tested for therapy. This integrated proteogenomic characterization of PDAC will serve as a valuable resource for the community, paving the way for early detection and identification of novel therapeutic targets.
