Area of Science:

  • Molecular Biology
  • Genomics
  • Cancer Diagnostics

Background:

  • Liquid biopsies analyzing circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) via targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) are increasingly utilized.
  • Existing library preparation methods present trade-offs between scalability, cost, sensitivity, and panel size.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce and evaluate Bridge Capture, a novel liquid biopsy technology.
  • To compare Bridge Capture's performance against established methods for variant allele frequency (VAF) detection.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of 24 contrived colorectal biospecimens mimicking ctDNA.
  • Comparison of Bridge Capture with Archer LIQUIDPlex and AmpliSeq CHP version 2 for Illumina.
  • Evaluation of sequencing depth, interlaboratory reproducibility, automation compatibility, and panel scalability.

Main Results:

  • Bridge Capture detected the lowest VAFs, showing strong correlation with Archer LIQUIDPlex (R² = 0.995) and AmpliSeq CHPv2 (R² = 0.988).
  • Demonstrated high interlaboratory reproducibility and consistency between automated and manual workflows.
  • Achieved a 300% panel size increase with negligible impact on performance and cross-reactivity, indicating high multiplexing capability.

Conclusions:

  • Bridge Capture offers a cost-efficient, sensitive, and scalable solution for ctDNA analysis.
  • The technology is compatible with standard NGS platforms and optimizes sequencing capacity.
  • Bridge Capture has the potential to significantly advance cancer mutation detection through improved diagnostics.
