ABSTRACT
Objective@#To investigate whether small endoscopic biopsies of colorectal cancer were sufficient for quality and accurate mutational analysis by amplicon-based next-generation sequencing (NGS).@*Methods@#By using an amplicon-based targeted NGS panel for mutational detection on Illumina Miseq platform, a total of 109 formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded (FFPE) endoscopic biopsies of colorectal cancer were retrospectively selected, based on specific histopathologic criteria, from January 2012 to June 2016 at West China Hospital of Sichuan University and Peking University Third Hospital. Twelve of these biopsies had corresponding FFPE surgical resection specimens. Quality control parameters of NGS testing were analyzed and NGS results were confirmed by other methods. Mutation calls of the 12 paired endoscopic biopsies and surgical resections were compared.@*Results@#Of the endoscopic biopsy specimens, 97.2% (106/109) had sufficient DNA and qualified sequencing library. NGS generated excellent sequencing data, with a median of 848× for median read depth and 95.7% for uniformity. The success rate of NGS was 95.4% (104/109). Conventional methods confirmed the results of NGS for KRAS and BRAF, and the concordance rate was 100.0%. The clinically actionable mutations detected in the 12 paired endoscopic biopsies and surgical resections were concordant.@*Conclusion@#FFPE endoscopic biopsies of colorectal cancer is suitable for targeted NGS, providing quality sequencing data and accurate mutational information to guide targeted therapy.
