Sequencing‐based microsatellite instability testing using as few as six markers for high‐throughput clinical diagnostics

Abstract excerpt

Microsatellite instability (MSI) testing of colorectal cancers (CRCs) is used to screen for Lynch syndrome (LS), a hereditary cancer-predisposition, and can be used to predict response to immunotherapy. Here, we present a single-molecule molecular inversion probe and sequencing-based MSI assay and demonstrate its clinical validity according to existing guidelines. We amplified 24 microsatellites in multiplex and...
