Concordance between predicted HLA type using next generation sequencing data generated for non-HLA purposes and clinical HLA type.

Concordance between predicted HLA type using next generation sequencing data generated for non-HLA purposes and clinical HLA type. Hum Immunol. 2020 Jun 13;: Authors: Moyer AM, Dukek B, Duellman P, Schneider B, Wakefield L, Skierka JM, Avula R, Bhagwate AV, Kalari KR, Kreuter JD, Goetz MP, Boughey JC, Black JL, Gandhi MJ Abstract We explored the feasibility of obtaining accurate HLA type using pre-existing NGS data not generated for HLA purposes. 83 exomes and 500 targeted NGS pharmacogenomic panels were analyzed using Omixon HLA Explore, OptiType, and/or HLA-Genotyper software. Results were compared against clinical HLA genotyping. 765 (94.2%) Omixon and 769 (94.7%) HLA-Genotyper of 812 germline allele calls across class I/II loci and 402 (99.5%) of 404 OptiType class I calls were concordant to the second field (i.e. HLA-A*02:01). An additional 19 (2.3%) Omixon, 39 (4.8%) HLA-Genotyper, and 2 (0.5%) OptiType allele calls were first field concordant (i.e. HLA-A*02). Using Omixon, four alleles (0.4%) were discordant and 24 (3.0%) failed to call, while 4 alleles (0.4%) were discordant using HLA-Genotyper. Tumor exomes were also evaluated and were 85.4%, 91.6%, and 100% concordant (Omixon and HLA-Genotyper with 96 alleles tested, and Optitype with 48 class I alleles, respectively). The 15 exomes and 500 pharmacogenomic panels were 100% concordant for each pharmacogenomic allele tested. This work has broad implications spanning future cl...
