    Abstract The unmet clinical needs of high relapse and cancer-related death rates are reflected by the poor understanding of the genome-wide mutational landscape and molecular mechanisms orchestrating therapeutic resistance. Emerging potential solutions to this challenge include the exploration of cancer genome dynamic evolution in time and space. Breakthrough next-generation sequencing (NGS) applications including multiregional NGS for intratumor heterogeneity identification, repeated cell-free DNA/circulating tumor DNA-NGS for detecting circulating genomic subclones and their comparison to reveal intrapatient heterogeneity (IPH) could identify the dynamic emergence of resistant subclones in the neoadjuvant, adjuvant and metastatic setting. Based on genome-phenotype map, and potential promising findings, rigorous evaluation of IPH spatiotemporal evolution and early drug development concepts in innovative clinical trials could dramatically speed up the translational process to achieve clinical precision oncology.

    Abstract The unprecedented potential of standard and new next-generation sequencing applications and methods to explore cancer genome evolution and tumor heterogeneity as well as transcription networks in time and space shapes the development of next-generation therapeutics. However, biomedical and pharmaceutical research for overcoming heterogeneity-based therapeutic resistance is at an important crossroads. Focus on linear transcription-based drug development targeting dynamics of simple intrapatient structured genome diversity represents a realistic medium-term goal. By contrast, the discovery of nonlinear transcription drugs for targeting structural and functional genome and transcriptome heterogeneity represents a long-term rational strategy. This review compares effectiveness, challenges and expectations between linear and nonlinear drugs targeting simple intrapatient variation and aberrant transcriptional biocircuits, respectively.

    Abstract Serial analysis of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) over the disease course is emerging as a prognostic, predictive and patient-monitoring biomarker. In the metastatic setting, several multigene ctDNA assays have been approved or recommended by regulatory organizations for personalized targeted therapy, especially for lung cancer. By contrast, in nonmetastatic disease, detection of ctDNA resulting from minimal residual disease (MRD) following multimodal treatment with curative intent presents major technical challenges. Several studies using tumor genotyping-informed serial ctDNA profiling have provided promising findings on the sensitivity and specificity of ctDNA in predicting the risk of recurrence. We discuss progress, limitations and future perspectives relating to the use of ctDNA as a biomarker to guide targeted therapy in metastatic disease, as well as the use of ctDNA MRD detection to guide adjuvant treatment in the nonmetastatic setting.

    Abstract Despite advances in translating conventional research into multi-modal treatment for colorectal cancer (CRC), therapeutic resistance and relapse remain unresolved in advanced resectable and, particularly, non-resectable disease. Genome and transcriptome sequencing and editing technologies, coupled with interaction mapping and machine learning, are transforming biomedical research, representing the most rational hope to overcome unmet research and clinical challenges. Rapid progress in both bulk and single-cell next-generation sequencing (NGS) analyses in the identification of primary and metastatic intratumor genomic and transcriptional heterogeneity (ITH) and the detection of circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) alterations is providing critical insight into the origins and spatiotemporal evolution of genomic clones responsible for early and late therapeutic resistance and relapse. Moreover, DNA and RNA editing pave new avenues towards the discovery of novel drug targets. Breakthrough combinations of sequencing and editing systems with technologies exploring dynamic interaction networks within pioneering studies could delineate how coding and non-coding mutations perturb regulatory networks and gene expression. This review discusses latest data on genomic and transcriptomic landscapes in time and space, as well as early-phase clinical trials on targeted drug combinations, highlighting the transition from research to clinical Colorectal Cancer Precision Medicine, through non-invasive screening, individualized drug response prediction and development of multiple novel drugs. Future studies exploring the potential to target key transcriptional drivers and regulators will contribute to the next-generation pharmaceutical controllability of multi-layered aberrant transcriptional biocircuits.

    Abstract The post-ENCODE era shapes now a new biomedical research direction for understanding transcriptional and signaling networks driving gene expression and core cellular processes such as cell fate, survival, and apoptosis. Over the past half century, the Francis Crick 'central dogma' of single n gene/protein-phenotype (trait/disease) has defined biology, human physiology, disease, diagnostics, and drugs discovery. However, the ENCODE project and several other genomic studies using high-throughput sequencing technologies, computational strategies, and imaging techniques to visualize regulatory networks, provide evidence that transcriptional process and gene expression are regulated by highly complex dynamic molecular and signaling networks. This Focus article describes the linear experimentation-based limitations of diagnostics and therapeutics to cure advanced cancer and the need to move on from reductionist to network-based approaches. With evident a wide genomic heterogeneity, the power and challenges of next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies to identify a patient's personal mutational landscape for tailoring the best target drugs in the individual patient are discussed. However, the available drugs are not capable of targeting aberrant signaling networks and research on functional transcriptional heterogeneity and functional genome organization is poorly understood. Therefore, the future clinical genome network medicine aiming at overcoming multiple problems in the new fields of regulatory DNA mapping, noncoding RNA, enhancer RNAs, and dynamic complexity of transcriptional circuitry are also discussed expecting in new innovation technology and strong appreciation of clinical data and evidence-based medicine. The problematic and potential solutions in the discovery of next-generation, molecular, and signaling circuitry-based biomarkers and drugs are explored.
