Clinical application of rapid next-generation sequencing strategy based on targeted amplicon sequencing in the diagnosis of myeloid neoplasms
Objective To explore the clinical application value of rapid next-generation sequencing(NGS)strategy based on targeted amplicon sequencing in the diagnosis of myeloid neoplasms.Methods In this observational study,both rapid NGS and conventional NGS on the bone marrow or peripheral blood samples of 682 patients were prospectively performed from February 2021 to August 2022 in First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University.The sequencing results were analyzed using the local Ion Reporter software and our lab's self-built bioinformatics platform,respectively.The timeliness of the two sequencing platforms was compared,and the Kappa consistency test was used to evaluate the consistency between the two sequencing platforms.Patients aged between 18 and 59 years with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia(AML)underwent screening by rapid NGS combining multiplex RT-PCR and in situ fluorescence hybridization technique within 72 hours,from whom high-risk patients according to European LeukemiaNet(ELN)2017 were screened for individualized induction therapy.Results In terms of timeliness,the median time from sample receipt to report issuance were 3(2,4)days and 13(11,15)days under rapid NGS and conventional NGS testing,respectively,with a statistically significant difference(Z=-22.636,P＜0.001).Among 682 specimens with a total of 1 507 variants,rapid NGS detected a total of 1 499 variants,with a detection rate of 99.5％and 674 cases were accurate,with an accuracy rate of 98.8％;the conventional NGS detected 1 506 variants,with a detection rate of 99.9％and 681 cases were accurate,with an accuracy rate of 99.9％.In 682 specimens,there were 181 negative and 501 positive,in which 8 cases were missed under rapid NGS,and 1 case was missed under conventional NGS.The kappa value was 0.967 by Kappa consistency test,and P＜0.001,suggesting good consistency and consistency between the two NGS platforms.From February 2021 to July 2022,286 patients who were rapidly diagnosed of AML contained 78 patients screened as the ELN 2017 adverse-risk category,including 42 patients enrolled,with age 39(33,52)years old.After one cycle of venetoclax combined with decitabine induction therapy,78.6％(38/42)of the patients achieved composite complete remission.Among the rest 104 additional myeloid neoplasms,rapid NGS detected mutations in 80 patients,with a detection rate of 76.9％,among which 89.0％(215/242)of the variants could serve as the basis for the diagnostic classification,prognostic evaluation,and target therapy of myelodysplastic syndromes(MDS),myeloproliferative neoplasms(MPN),and myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasms(MDS/MPN).Conclusion The rapid NGS based on targeted amplicon sequencing is in good consistency with conventional NGS,and shorters the diagnostic time,whose sensitivity and detection range meets the need for diagnostic classification,prognostic stratification,and target therapy of myeloid neoplasms.
