| Abstract: | This study is the largest analysis of DNA viruses in solid tumors with associated genomics. To achieve this, a novel method for discovery of DNA viruses from matched tumor/normal next-generation sequencing samples was developed and validated. This method performed comparably to reference methods for the detection of high-risk (HR) human papilloma virus (HPV) (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve = 0.953). After virus identification in 48,148 consecutives samples from 42,846 unique patients, novel virus tumor associations were established by segregating tumor types to determine whether each DNA virus was enriched in each of the tumor types compared with the remaining cohort. All firmly established solid tumor-virus associations (eg, HR HPV in cervical cancer) were confirmed, and the novel associations discovered included: human herpes virus 6 in neuroblastoma, human herpes virus 7 in esophagogastric cancer, and HPV42 in digital papillary adenocarcinoma. These associations were confirmed in an independent validation cohort. HR HPV– and Epstein-Barr virus–associated tumors showed newly discovered genomic associations, including a lower tumor mutation burden. The study demonstrated the ability to study the role of DNA viruses in human cancer from clinical genomics data and established the largest cohort that can be utilized as a validation set for future discovery efforts. © 2022 Association for Molecular Pathology and American Society for Investigative Pathology |
