Reliability of Whole-Exome Sequencing for Assessing Intratumor Genetic Heterogeneity
2018-01-24
Abstract excerpt
<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Multi-region sequencing is used to detect intratumor genetic heterogeneity (ITGH) in tumors. To assess whether genuine ITGH can be distinguished from sequencing artifacts, we whole-exome sequenced (WES) three anatomically distinct regions of the same tumor with technical replicates to estimate technical noise. Somatic variants were detected with three different WES pipelines and subsequently vali...
