The DNA integrity number and concentration are useful parameters for successful comprehensive genomic profiling test for cancer using formalin-fixed paraffin embedded tissue
PATHOLOGY INTERNATIONAL(2023)
Abstract
The acquisition of high-quality biospecimens and the appropriate handling of these materials are indispensable for successful clinical sequencing. We developed a cancer clinical sequencing system targeting 160 cancer genes: PleSSision-Rapid. Through the PleSSision-Rapid system, we have analyzed DNA quality evaluated by DIN (DNA integrity number) with 1329 formalin-fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) samples including 477 prospectively collected tissues for genomic test (P) and 852 archival samples after routine pathological diagnosis (A1/A2). As a result, the samples with more than DIN 2.1 was 92.0% (439/477) in prospectively collected sample (P), while it was 85.6% (332/388) and 76.7% (356/464) in two types of archival samples (A1/A2). We performed the PleSSision-Rapid sequence using the samples with over DIN 2.1 and DNA concentration >10 ng/mu L with which we were able to construct a DNA library, and the probability of sequence success was almost equivalent during all types of specimen processing, at 90.7% (398/439) in (P), 92.5% (307/332) in (A1) and 90.2% (321/356) in (A2), respectively. Our result indicated the clinical benefit to prepare the prospective collection of FFPE materials for indisputable clinical sequence, and that DIN >= 2.1 would be a solid parameter for sample preparation of comprehensive genomic profiling tests.
