Orthogonal NGS for High Throughput Clinical Diagnostics

Abstract: Next generation sequencing is a transformative technology for discovering and diagnosing genetic disorders. However, high-throughput sequencing remains error-prone, necessitating variant confirmation in order to meet the exacting demands of clinical diagnostic sequencing. To address this, we devised an orthogonal, dual platform approach employing complementary target capture and sequencing chemistries to improve speed and accuracy of variant calls at a genomic scale. We combined DNA selection by bait-based hyb… Show more

“…Exome sequencing was performed by Claritas Genomics using an orthogonal next-generation sequencing platform approach 6 , combining Illumina Trusight One sequencing (targeting 11.9 Mb of human disease-relevant genes) on the MiSeq with Proton Ampliseq whole exome sequencing. On the MiSeq platform, 29.5 million total reads were generated (mean read length of 150 bp) for a mean coverage of 185x.…”

“…NGS is a high-throughput method that can detect numerous genetic variations, such as single nucleotide variants, insertions and deletions, copy number variations, and gene fusions over larger genomic regions. It is also noted for its high sensitivity and specificity [12]. Consequently, NGS may be a good tool for guiding the treatment of NSCLC.…”

“…The relatively high raw base-calling error rate and variable performance of next generation sequencing (NGS) platforms is well recognized. 30 Our study highlights the added value of a dual platform approach employing complementary NGS protocols 31 to improve variant yield and reduce false-negative calls.…”
