Product details

Every year, approximately 450 people in every 100,000 are diagnosed with cancer with a 5-year relative survival rate at 67.7%. Although survival rates have increased from less than 50% in 1975, there is a need for more basic research into the types of mutations and whether they are driver mutations or passenger mutations [1]. 

Research studies to produce a short list of mutated genes that are relevant to a multitude of cancer types, and that can be expanded to include additional cancer type–specific genes, would be invaluable in research. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) network performed a systematic analysis research study of more than 3,000 tumors from 12 cancer types to investigate underlying mechanisms of cancer initiation and progression and have identified 127 significantly mutated genes (SMGs) across these tumor types [2].

The xGen Pan-Cancer Hyb Panel is a hybridization capture panel based on the research findings of the TCGA network. The panel comprises xGen Hyb Probes, individually synthesized and quality controlled 120mer oligonucleotides bearing a 5′ biotin modification and manufactured using proprietary Ultramer™ synthesis technology.

Product data

30X coverage depth for 99% of the targets

Figure 1. An example of, deep coverage of targeted regions using xGen Pan-Cancer Hyb Panel. Genomic DNA libraries (n=8) were enriched using the xGen Pan-Cancer Hyb Panel and sequenced on a NextSeq® 550 system using 2 x 150 paired-end reads. Total reads for each sample were sub-sampled to 4M total reads. In all samples, there was >1X coverage for 99.9% of targets and >30X coverage for 99.7% of targets.

Coverage uniformity for the xGen Pan-Cancer Hyb Panel

Figure 2. An example of high coverage uniformity obtained with xGen Pan-Cancer Hyb Panel. Greater than 0.2X mean coverage is observed for >99.3% of targets. Genomic DNA Illumina TruSeq® HT libraries (n=8) were enriched using the xGen Pan-Cancer Hyb Panel and sequenced on a NextSeq® 550 system using 2 x 150 paired-end reads. Each sample was sub-sampled to 4M total reads. 

Consistent data from one lot to the next

Figure 3. An example of lot to lot consistency obtained with xGen Pan-Cancer Hyb Panel. Genomic DNA libraries were enriched with two lots of the xGen Pan-Cancer Hyb Panel (n=8 for each lot). The enriched samples were sequenced on the NextSeq 550 sequencing platform using 2 x150 paired-end reads. All samples were sub-sampled to a level of 4M total reads. The probe-by-probe target coverage was averaged for eight replicate samples for each lot of the xGen Pan-Cancer Hyb Panel. A comparison of probe-by-probe target coverage between two lots showed excellent consistency, with an R2 value of 0.8378.
