TruSight Oncology 500 ctDNA v2 is now available with improved sensitivity using lower cfDNA input, a faster turnaround time, and a more streamlined workflow.

Overview

TruSight Oncology 500 ctDNA v2 is a pan-cancer NGS assay that enables in-house comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in blood plasma for research. 

  • Leverage minimally invasive blood samples as a complement or alternative to tissue biopsy

  • Target 523 genes to assess DNA variants across major variant classes (SNV, MNV, indels, CNV, and gene rearrangements), plus key immuno-oncology gene signatures (TMB, MSI)

  • Achieve ultra-sensitive detection from minimal cfDNA input

  • Get final reports in <4 days from cfDNA with a streamlined workflow

Low-level biomarker detection

Achieve sensitive and accurate detection (0.2% VAF for SNVs) with low inputs (20 ng) using UMI-based hybrid-capture library prep and deep sequencing.

Integrated bioinformatics

DRAGEN secondary analysis powers a rapid variant calling algorithm on-premises or in the cloud with Illumina Connected Analytics. Access insights using integrated reporting with Illumina Connected Insights* or Velsera.

Streamlined workflow

Advanced chemistry and extensive workflow optimization enable a single-day library prep plus enrichment for a total turnaround time of <4 days. Automation-friendly kits and methods enable increased efficiencies.

*Not available in all countries. Illumina Connected Insights supports user-defined tertiary analysis through API calls to third-party knowledge sources.

Figures

Small nucleotide variant detection at low VAF

Synthetic control samples with known variant allele frequency (VAF) for each single nucleotide variant were diluted to values ranging from 0.20%–0.50% VAF and analyzed by TruSight Oncology 500 ctDNA v2.

 

Indel detection at low VAF

Synthetic control samples with known VAF for each insertion or deletion were diluted to values ranging from 0.20%–0.50% VAF and analyzed by TruSight Oncology 500 ctDNA v2.

 

High TMB correlation compared to tumor-normal calling

Tumor-only workflow of TSO 500 ctDNA v2 utilizing advanced bioinformatics for germline and CH variant filtering produces highly concordant bTMB compared to a tumor-normal workflow.

 

Sensitive MSI detection for immuno-oncology research

Microsatellite instability (MSI) was evaluated in 3 cell lines with known MSI-high status (samples 1–3) and detected down to 0.3% tumor fraction assessing up to ~2300 homopolymer sites.

 

Analytical performance for CNVs, LOD ≥1.3 fold for amplifications and ≤0.6 for deletions​

Lower relative MYC detection due to limit of detection approached faster due to fewer starting copies.​ Illumina data on file, 2023.

 

Analytical performance for gene rearrangements with detection at LOD (0.5%)​

VAF calculated by dividing the total number of supporting reads by the higher depth of the two sides of the breakpoint. Illumina data on file, 2023.
