Outline Droplet Digital PCR (ddPCR) overview Applications Implementation of a new workflow Requirements Challenges Solutions Case studies X-LAG tNGS confirmations Summary

ddPCR Principle Standard PCR qPCR ddPCR Quantitation of an end product in a bulk reaction qPCR Quantitation of product in real time in a bulk reaction ddPCR Bulk reaction separated into smaller partitions. Each partition intended to contain zero or one copy of DNA. The fraction of positive partitions is fitted to a Poisson distribution to determine the absolute starting copy number of DNA.

ddPCR Principle: Process Bio-Rad QX200 System

Bio-Rad Quantasoft 1D Amplification Channel One Channel Two

Bio-Rad Quantasoft Concentration Channel 1 concentration

Bio-Rad Quantasoft Events Total droplets Channel 1 droplets

ddPCR Applications Detection of Single Nucleotide Variants (SNV) Utilise TaqMan-type hydrolysis probes Greater statistical power for low level detection (ctDNA, cfDNA, transcript abundance) Absolute quantitation possible without standard curves Detection of gene dosage/CNV Utilise either dye-binding (external reference) or hydrolysis probes (internal reference) comparison of positive partitions for target and reference allow gene dosage calculations absolute quantitation possible without standard curves Phasing of variants

Integration: Requirements Exporting Quantasoft Setup File Bio-Rad QX200 System Quantasoft Analysis Package Import patient results

Challenges Quantasoft Setup File Patient demographics Primers/Probes Reagents Experiment type Results Import File Patient demographics Quality control data Assay results Software derived Externally calculated Interpretation of numerical results Manual entry Modify an existing LIMS export function Commission LIMs provider to create new feature Quantasoft output – “example” Contains redundant information Hydrolysis probe assay results are calculate within the software (internal reference) i.e. Duplex probes. EvaGreen assays use an external and can’t be calculated within the software. Requires outside calculating. All data is numerical – requires interpretation Quality data, pass and fail samples - OK for a few samples, but for the possibility of larger batches in the future it is more prudent to automate this process too. Consistency between users. Manual entry Modify existing LIMS export function Commission LIMS to create new feature

Summary QX200 system - a replacement for current qPCR and dosage techniques? Increased sensitivity and statistical robustness Workflow implementation Underestimating IT project time frames Utilising staff with additional skills (e.g. advanced knowledge of Excel) Communicating concepts clearly between clinical, technical and bioinformatic staff Any questions?
