Next Generation Sequencing “Recent technological advances, cumulatively called NGS, provide the first opportunity to fully characterize and fully phase the HLA genes” – Prof. Dimitri Monos, CHOP § The Technique – Long Range PCR Amplification – Clonal sequencing of Amplicons – Assembly of whole gene consensus sequences § The Goal – Automated, high-throughput analysis – Unambiguous results – No reflexive testing www.omixon.com support@omixon.com
NGS workflow www.omixon.com support@omixon.com
EFI Accreditation for NGS § EFI has introduced new standards for accreditation using NGS techniques § Omixon’s Holotype HLA workflow and product provides full support for EFI accreditation § New standards include: – Documentation Guidelines – Nucleotide and Allele Assignment Standards – Bioinformatics Standards www.omixon.com support@omixon.com
Documentation Guidelines § Purification, sample tagging, normalization, pooling methods – Holotype HLA protocol, workbook, HLA Twin software § Steps must be taken to prevent creation of PCR artefacts, PCR artefacts must be documented – Optimized PCR conditions, QC metrics in software § Method of fragmentation must be specified, for each run the size of fragments must be documented and the selection must be specified – Documented in protocol, QC metrics and fragment distribution visualisation in software www.omixon.com support@omixon.com
Documentation Guidelines § Methods for enrichment strategies of multi gene panels must be defined. – Documented in Holotype HLA protocol § The conditions for the sequencing reaction must be documented and appropriate - including specificity, quantity and quality of templates; sequencing primers and sequencing reagents. – Documented in protocol, genotyping call in the software § Controls and procedures must be established to identify sample mix- up – Documented in workbook, any contamination will be detected by software www.omixon.com support@omixon.com
Allele Assignment § The criteria for acceptance of data must be established – 18 QC measures per locus in HLA Twin, 2 orthogonal algorithms § The signal to noise ratio must be sufficient to ensure reliable nucleotide assignments – 3 QC metrics for noise measurement, noise reduction algorithms § Interpretation, acceptance and/or rejection of sequences from regions which are difficult to resolve – Two orthogonal algorithms, QC measures, Genome Browser www.omixon.com support@omixon.com
Allele Assignment § Adequate depth of coverage thresholds – 2 QC metrics and thresholds for coverage § Determine the phase of alleles for the methods where phasing is possible – QC metric and 'phasing track' in Genome Browser www.omixon.com support@omixon.com
Bioinformatics § Sequencing metrics and QC parameters for optimal performance must be documented, specified and in range – 18 QC metrics per locus, with locus-specific thresholds § Each deviation from the standard operation procedure must be documented – All analysis parameters are logged and audited in the software § Detailed documentation and validation of the bioinformatics process supporting the analysis, interpretation and reporting results must be established – Omixon has already supported 75 labs through the evaluation process www.omixon.com support@omixon.com
Bioinformatics § Revalidation of bioinformatics processes must be performed after upgrading or changes of any affected components – Backward compatibility of the software, re-analysis may be required for IMGT/HLA database updates § Storage and back-up of data (input, raw data, intermediate and final data) must be defined in accordance with the national laws – Simple archive/storage mechanisms for Omixon results § The version of the bioinformatics process must be traceable for each sample analysed – Audited and logged www.omixon.com support@omixon.com
Bioinformatics § Periodic barcode rotation is required to detect contamination. If contamination is detected Standard L8.3 must be followed – Multiple plates (both 24 sample and 96 sample versions). Also contamination QC metrics in the software. § Algorithms for modification of raw sequence reads must be described in detail and validated (i.e. sequence trimming, quality filtering) – QC metrics and statistics visualisation for every locus/sample § Each sample processed must be traceable through the whole process including data analysis and reporting – Every sample, every allele assignment, every allele override, every lab manager approval is audited and reported www.omixon.com support@omixon.com
