Test development ¾NGS clinical guidelines
• NGS should not be transferred to clinical practice without an acceptable validation of the tests according to the emerging guidelines
![Page 5: NGS in Diagnostics · CHEK2 FANCG NF2 SDHC CYLD FANCI NSD1 SDHD LRGt1 LRGt1 LRGt1 LRGt1 LRGt1 . Test development ¾Database ... • Define limitations (i.e. indel size, large CNVs,](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022050513/5f9d70642b7c112137797460/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Test development ¾NGS diagnostic approaches
Mutation scanning : Analysis of individual / small sets of genes, i.e. BRCA1/BRCA2. The NGS test should have at least the same sensitivity and specificity as the current
diagnostic.
• Different types of NGS assays for diagnostics
Mutation screening : Targeted analysis of known genes (gene panel). Novel features in the terms of the design, limitations, sensitivity, specificity and
possible adverse effects.
Exome sequencing : Extensive targeted analysis (gene panel, “mendelioms”). Trio for the identification of
de novo defects. Additional features such unsolicited findings/inform consent procedures.

¾Considerations for NGS testing Test development
The diagnostic yield is the chance that a disease causing variant is identified and molecular diagnosis can be made, calculated per patient cohort. (Weiss, Van de Zwaag et al. 2012)
• Consider the diagnostic yield for each NGS test
• Consider the frequency of other disease-causing pathomechanisms that can not be covered by NGS
cardiomyopahty /epilepsy > 50 genes associated
cystic fibrosis >98% patients mutations CFTR gene
gene panel testing
SPAST deletions 20% of cases with Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia (HSP)

¾Gene Panels Test development
• Gene panels should only contain genes clearly associated to the disease • Adjustment of panels to the latest scientific discoveries (maintain the Dx yield) • “core disease gene lists” established by clinical and laboratory experts
![Page 8: NGS in Diagnostics · CHEK2 FANCG NF2 SDHC CYLD FANCI NSD1 SDHD LRGt1 LRGt1 LRGt1 LRGt1 LRGt1 . Test development ¾Database ... • Define limitations (i.e. indel size, large CNVs,](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022050513/5f9d70642b7c112137797460/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

¾Pipeline Validation
• Specify all pipeline components (i.e. third party softwares, in-house, version)
• Record any modifications made to open-source softwares
• Describe criteria used for annotation and filtering of variants
• Pipeline accuracy must be validated for each variant type (SNV, CNV, indel…)
• Define analytical performance (sensitivity, specificity, PPV)
• Define specifications (i.e. average depth of coverage, minimum depth of coverage)
• Define limitations (i.e. indel size, large CNVs, structural variants, mosaicism)
• Different pipelines will require different specifications

¾Pipeline Validation
• Sensitivity (true positive rate) TPR=TP/(TP+FN) TPR reflects the frequency of FNs. • Specificity (true negative rate) TNR=TN/(TN+FP) TNR reflects the frequency of FPs.
• Precision (Positive Predictive Value) PPV = TP/(TP+FP) PPV relates to the likelihood that a variant call is a TP.
• Do not use “no calls” or “invalid calls” in TRP, TNR, or PPV calculations. • Do not use calls in regions which “a priori” are known to increase limitations
(pseudogenes, paralogs, low complexity)
