Zusammenfassung: | Next Generation Sequencing technology has enhanced oncology research by enabling the detection of relevant variants for clinical and drug discovery programs. The Oncomine Comprehensive Assay v3, a pan-cancer panel, used with the Ion Torrent Genexus System allows for formalin-fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) samples to be examined across 161 unique genes in an automated workflow from sample to result in 30hrs. This study demonstrates ≥ 90% accuracy for detecting SNV/Indel/CNV and Fusion variants.
The Genexus System consists of two software linked instruments, the Genexus Purification System and the Genexus Integrated Sequencer. The purification system is used first to extract and quantify 6 FFPE sections from human colon and lung tissue for matching DNA & RNA pairs. The nucleic acid output plate from the purification instrument is directly transferred to the sequencer for library preparation and sequencing using the Oncomine Comprehensive Assay v3. Variant calling analysis of 6 DNA & RNA pairs are completed the following day. Results show that the variants were detected with ≥ 90% Sensitivity when compared to the Ion Torrent GeneStudio S5 System as an orthogonal method. All variants report p-values ≤ 10^-5 signifying more confidence that the variant call is correct. The Genexus System is a seamless solution for sample to variant calling results.
