Purpose of Paper

This paper compared genotyping results by next-generation sequencing (NGS) with those by conventional methods in formalin-fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) lung adenocarcinoma specimens.

Conclusion of Paper

NGS detected all mutations identified by conventional methods as well as some additional ones including therapeutically-actionable mutations in some specimens.

Studies

  1. Study Purpose

    This study compared genotyping results by next-generation sequencing with those by conventional methods in 119 FFPE lung adenocarcinoma specimens. After xylene deparaffinization, DNA was extracted using the QIAamp DNA FFPE tissue kit. A panel of 145 genes was sequenced using an Ion Proton Sequencer. The results were compared with those obtained previously using amplification refractory mutation system (ARMS)-PCR, fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH), or Sanger Sequencing.

    Summary of Findings:

    NGS detected all mutations identified by ARMS-PCR, FISH, or Sanger Sequencing in 61 specimens, including those in specimens containing only 10-15% tumor cells. However, additional mutations were identified by NGS in some specimens that were not identified by ARMS-PCR or FISH. Further, using an additional 58 specimens, NGS identified 1.4 times as many actionable mutations as ARMS-PCR or FISH.
