Brief Summary: The aim of this study is to investigate a type of skin cancer also known as melanoma in children adolescents and young adults who will be referred to as CAYA patients in this project The need for this study arises because this disease in CAYA patients is still poorly understood due to its rarity in individuals under 30 years old This often leads to difficulties in assessing its severity and consequently in deciding on the necessary treatments to ensure the patientampamp39s recovery The goal of this study is to examine melanoma in CAYA patients in order to gather the information needed to provide better diagnoses for affected patients and as a result select appropriate treatments to fight the disease and promote the patientampamp39s full recovery Additionally the data collected will be used to create a Pan-European online platform that will allow doctors across the European Union to consult the obtained data and collaborate on particularly complex melanoma cases always with the aim of ensuring the patientampamp39s full recovery in the shortest possible time
Detailed Description: The Mol-Mel study will focus on different tasks and for each task different investigations will be carried out

Standardization and tissue quality control The quality of the samples will then be determined using hematoxylin ampamp eosin HE-staining If any quality issue is detected feedback will be sent to the clinical center responsible for providing the sample
Histopathology ampamp computational pathology Melanoma samples will undergo a central pathology review and analysis of conventional prognostic staging parameters Diagnostically challenging neoplasms will be included in an inter-observer agreement carried out by different pathologistMelanoma samples will also be charactered by single and multi-plex IHC in whole sections and tissue microarrays TMA and subjected to automated digital quantification Spatial proteomics by automated ultra-high content imagingMACSima Imaging Cyclic Staining MICS technology enables simultaneous analysis of hundreds of marker antigens on a single sample Hundreds of antigens for single sample will be analysed via Automated ultra-high content imagingMACSima Imaging Cyclic Staining MICS that will be performed on the novel automated ultra-high content imaging platform MACSimaTM Miltenyi Biotec
Comprehensive somatic transcriptional and DNA methylation landscape and data integration DNA and RNA will be extracted by FFPE melanoma samples and characterized using whole-exome sequencing WES single nucleotide polymorphism SNP and RNA sequencing RNAseq arrays on matched tumornormal pairs of samples Then recurrent somatic aberrations DNA methylation subclasses and patterns of tumor evolution will be characterized
Pan-European digital second opinion platform this last task will focus on creating a pan-european second opinion platofrom in order to facilitate standardization of melanoma diagnosis and to share knowledge about biomarkers algorithms and subtype classification
