Integrated characterization of hepatobiliary tumor organoids provides a potential landscape of pharmacogenomic interactions.

Despite considerable efforts to identify human liver cancer genomic alterations that might unveil druggable targets, the systematic translation of multiomics data remains challenging. Here, we report success in long-term culture of 64 patient-derived hepatobiliary tumor organoids (PDHOs) from a Chinese population. A divergent response to 265 metabolism- and epigenetics-related chemicals and 36 anti-cancer drugs is observed. Integration of the whole genome, transcriptome, chromatin accessibility profiles, and drug sensitivity results of 64 clinically relevant drugs defines over 32,000 genome-drug interactions. RUNX1 promoter mutation is associated with an increase in chromatin accessibility and a concomitant gene expression increase, promoting a cluster of drugs preferentially sensitive in hepatobiliary tumors. These results not only provide an annotated PDHO biobank of human liver cancer but also suggest a systematic approach for obtaining a comprehensive understanding of the gene-regulatory network of liver cancer, advancing the applications of potential personalized medicine.
