Abstract

Genomic medicine holds great promise for improving health care, but integrating searchable and actionable genetic data into electronic health records (EHRs) remains a challenge. Here we describe Neptune, a system for managing the interaction between a clinical laboratory and an EHR system during the clinical reporting process. We developed Neptune and applied it to two clinical sequencing projects that required report customization, variant reanalysis, and EHR integration. Neptune has been applied for the generation and delivery of over 15,000 clinical genomic reports. This work spans two clinical tests based on targeted gene panels that contain 68 and 153 genes respectively. These projects demanded customizable clinical reports that contained a variety of genetic data types including single-nucleotide variants (SNVs), copy-number variants (CNVs), pharmacogenomics, and polygenic risk scores. Two variant reanalysis activities were also supported, highlighting this important workflow. Methods are needed for delivering structured genetic data to EHRs. This need extends beyond developing data formats to providing infrastructure that manages the reporting process itself. Neptune was successfully applied on two high-throughput clinical sequencing projects to build and deliver clinical reports to EHR systems. The software is open source and available at https://gitlab.com/bcm-hgsc/neptune .

Abstract

The advancement of precision medicine requires new methods to coordinate and deliver genetic data from heterogeneous sources to physicians and patients. The eMERGE III Network enrolled >25,000 participants from biobank and prospective cohorts of predominantly healthy individuals for clinical genetic testing to determine clinically actionable findings. The network developed protocols linking together the 11 participant collection sites and 2 clinical genetic testing laboratories. DNA capture panels targeting 109 genes were used for testing of DNA and sample collection, data generation, interpretation, reporting, delivery, and storage were each harmonized. A compliant and secure network enabled ongoing review and reconciliation of clinical interpretations, while maintaining communication and data sharing between clinicians and investigators. A total of 202 individuals had positive diagnostic findings relevant to the indication for testing and 1,294 had additional/secondary findings of medical significance deemed to be returnable, establishing data return rates for other testing endeavors. This study accomplished integration of structured genomic results into multiple electronic health record (EHR) systems, setting the stage for clinical decision support to enable genomic medicine. Further, the established processes enable different sequencing sites to harmonize technical and interpretive aspects of sequencing tests, a critical achievement toward global standardization of genomic testing. The eMERGE protocols and tools are available for widespread dissemination.

3. Abstract 3543: Clinical whole genome sequencing at scale

Abstract

Whole genome sequencing (WGS) offers the greatest potential to comprehensively and accurately identify all forms of human genetic variation. The accessibility of WGS data for diagnostic use has increased due to cost reductions in recent years, driving the need for a high quality, clinically validated offering. Our platform has completed an extensive benchmarking study of the Illumina PCR-free whole genome pipeline to establish clinical validity for the end-to-end laboratory, analytical, and computational processes. Our benchmarking study is comprehensive in nature, including measuring the precision, robustness, limits of detection for variant classes, and contamination estimates. A cohort of well-characterized reference controls and clinical samples with previously identified pathogenic variants were used to establish the performance characteristics of our clinical WGS test, which at 30X coverage has >99% analytical sensitivity for SNVs and >98% analytical sensitivity for small insertions and deletions. Our platform is capable of operating at a scale that supports applications from individual clinics (cancer and medical genetics related applications) as well as large scale ambitious collaborative projects such as the All Of Us program which aims to generate clinical grade whole genome variant calls for 1 million healthy research participants.

Abstract

The presence of specific somatic copy number alterations (SCNAs) in tumor genomes can be used to predict sensitivity to specific treatments and to predict outcomes. CapSeg Revised (ReCapSeg) detects SCNAs from tumor sequencing data. The Broad Institute is integrating ReCapSeg into the Clinical Research Sequencing Platform (CRSP), a CLIA-certified platform, to enable physicians to use detected SCNAs in treatment decisions. By using sequencing data CRSP can produce SCNA reports using the same data being generated for other reports (e.g. somatic single nucleotide variants). ReCapSeg produces copy ratio estimates for regions of the genome and includes a caller that labels regions as amplified, deleted, or neutral. ReCapSeg leverages a panel of normals (PoN), which obviates the need for the matched normal for a given tumor sample. Validation for ReCapSeg, in CRSP, is repeatable and standardized with a process for creating a PoN and gathering performance metrics from case samples. Additional QC metrics and criteria on input sequencing data were identified and included, so that reports can indicate when reduced performance can be expected.

Abstract

Forward genetic mutational studies, adaptive evolution, and phenotypic screening are powerful tools for creating new variant organisms with desirable traits. However, mutations generated in the process cannot be easily identified with traditional genetic tools. We show that new high-throughput, massively parallel sequencing technologies can completely and accurately characterize a mutant genome relative to a previously sequenced parental (reference) strain. We studied a mutant strain of Pichia stipitis, a yeast capable of converting xylose to ethanol. This unusually efficient mutant strain was developed through repeated rounds of chemical mutagenesis, strain selection, transformation, and genetic manipulation over a period of seven years. We resequenced this strain on three different sequencing platforms. Surprisingly, we found fewer than a dozen mutations in open reading frames. All three sequencing technologies were able to identify each single nucleotide mutation given at least 10–15-fold nominal sequence coverage. Our results show that detecting mutations in evolved and engineered organisms is rapid and cost-effective at the whole-genome level using new sequencing technologies. Identification of specific mutations in strains with altered phenotypes will add insight into specific gene functions and guide further metabolic engineering efforts.
