Intended Use

The Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel is a qualitative high-throughput sequencing based in vitro diagnostic test system intended for analysis of germline human genomic DNA extracted from whole blood for detection of substitutions, small insertion and deletion alterations and copy number variants (CNV) in a panel of targeted genes.

This test system is intended to provide information for use by qualified health care professionals, in accordance with professional guidelines, for hereditary cancer predisposition assessment and to aid in identifying hereditary genetic variants potentially associated with a diagnosed cancer.

The test is not intended for cancer screening or prenatal testing. Results are intended to be interpreted within the context of additional laboratory results, family history, and clinical findings.

The test is a single-site assay performed at Invitae Corporation.

Device Description

The Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel uses hybridization-based capture, nextgeneration sequencing (NGS), and a custom-built bioinformatics pipeline to compare all positions in targeted regions of 47 genes to a reference sequence and identify variants, including single nucleotide variants (SNVs), insertions and deletions (Indels), and copy number variants (CNVs). Sequence analysis covers clinically important regions of each gene, including coding exons and 10 to 20 base pairs of adjacent intronic sequence on either side of the coding exons in the transcript listed in Table 1. Genes of "high clinical significance" are defined as those for which the test result(s) may lead to prophylactic screening, confirmatory procedures, or treatment that may incur morbidity or mortality to the patient and are shown in bold text. In addition, the analysis covers the select non-coding variants specifically defined in the table. Any variants that fall outside these regions are not analyzed. Identified variants are assessed by clinical professionals using currently available literature and data from public genetic variant databases. Variants are assigned a score, calculated according to an algorithm that weights the available clinical evidence. Possible outcomes include the following, which are based on joint ACMG/AMP Committee guidelines: Benign (not reported), Likely benign (not reported), Likely pathogenic, Pathogenic, Variant of Uncertain Significance. Variants are reported using HGVS nomenclature and the human reference genome GRCh37.

2. Sample Sizes Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

  • Precision/Reproducibility Test Sets:

    • Set 1: 25 clinical samples.
    • Set 2: 18 samples enriched for Indels and CNVs.
    • Each sample was tested with 14 replicates.
    • Data Provenance: Clinical samples (exact country of origin not specified, but the applicant is Invitae Corporation, a US-based company, suggesting data is likely from the US or a similar regulatory environment). The studies were retrospective for established clinical samples.
  • DNA Input Study Test Set:

    • 8 whole blood clinical specimens.
    • Each specimen tested at 5 input levels (1, 5, 10, 23, and 46 ng/uL), each in triplicate, for a total of 120 samples.
    • Data Provenance: Clinical specimens.
  • Analytical Specificity/Interference Study Test Set:

    • Study 1: 7 interfering substances, each spiked into 5 specimens, tested in 3 replicates. (Plus 10 donor blood samples, 2 replicates each).
    • Study 2: 7 interfering substances, each spiked into 5-6 samples, tested in 2 replicates.
    • Data Provenance: Specimens sourced from a blood bank.
  • Accuracy (Orthogonal Comparison) Test Sets:

      • Additional 106 clinical specimens with prior negative CNV results for TNPV evaluation.
    • Data Provenance: GIAB samples are publicly available reference materials. Cell line samples are commercial. Clinical specimens "tested at Invitae" or "from patients diagnosed with cancer and individuals tested for predisposition assessment," indicating retrospective clinical data.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications

The document does not explicitly state the number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test sets in terms of individual review. Instead:

  • For the Precision/Reproducibility and DNA Input studies, "variants" are stated to have been identified in the samples. The ground truth for these samples (clinical and reference materials) is based on their characterized genetic profiles.
  • For the Accuracy (Orthogonal Comparison) study with non-clinical samples, ground truth was established by "well characterized genome sequence data" for GIAB samples and previous identification for the "at least one variant" in supplemental cell lines. These reference standards typically have their ground truth established by consensus of multiple methods and experts, but the exact number of experts involved in the initial characterization of these reference materials is not detailed in this document.
  • For the Accuracy (Orthogonal Comparison) study with clinical specimens, the ground truth was established by "a validated high-throughput sequencing platform" or "a validated multiplexed PCR based test or a validated microarray." This implies that the ground truth in these cases relied on the established accuracy and validation of these orthogonal methods.
  • For Interpretation Agreement, Invitae's internal classifications were compared to "independently generated prior clinical laboratory testing results" and "ClinVar classifications." ClinVar classifications are curated by various groups, including "Expert Panel submissions" (which imply expert consensus).

The document states that identified variants "are assessed by clinical professionals using currently available literature and data from public genetic variant databases" and that "Variant interpretation and curation is performed according to controlled SOPs by trained individuals who have passed a competency assessment." This implies that highly qualified professionals are involved in the overall process of variant interpretation, which indirectly contributes to the establishment and verification of ground truth in their internal processes. These professionals are described as "PhD level scientists, genetic counselors, as well as licensed, board-certified clinical molecular geneticists or licensed, board-certified molecular pathologists." No specific number of experts used for each ground truth assessment within the test sets is provided.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

The document does not describe an explicit "adjudication method" (like 2+1 or 3+1 for human readers) for establishing the ground truth for the test sets. Instead, it relies on:

  • Reference Standards: For non-clinical samples (GIAB), the ground truth is pre-established "well-characterized genome sequence data," implying a high level of confidence through consensus or advanced methods.
  • Orthogonal Validated Methods: For clinical samples, the comparison study uses "validated" orthogonal methods as the de-facto ground truth. This means the ground truth relies on the established accuracy of those methods, which would have undergone their own validation.
  • Internal Review/SOPs: The internal process for variant interpretation and curation involves review by "PhD level scientists, genetic counselors, as well as licensed, board-certified clinical molecular geneticists or licensed, board-certified molecular pathologists." This implies an implicit adjudication or consensus within their established clinical laboratory practices, but not a formalized adjudication by independent experts for each test set sample specifically for this study.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

No, a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. This study is for a genetic diagnostic panel, not for an AI-assisted diagnostic imaging system that typically involves human readers interpreting images. The evaluation focuses on the analytical performance of the automated sequencing pipeline.

6. Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Study

Yes, the studies described are essentially standalone evaluations of the assay's analytical performance, which includes the bioinformatics pipeline (algorithm) that calls variants. The "Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel uses hybridization-based capture, next-generation sequencing (NGS), and a custom-built bioinformatics pipeline to compare all positions in targeted regions... and identify variants." The precision, DNA input, analytical specificity, and accuracy studies directly assess the output of this automated system, comparing it against known ground truths or orthogonal methods. While "Variant Interpretation and Review" does involve human professionals, the core performance metrics (PPA, NPA, TPPV, TNPV) are evaluating the technical ability of the system (including the bioinformatics pipeline) to accurately detect and call variants.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

The ground truth used in the studies includes:

  • Reference Genome Sequence Data: "Genome in a Bottle (GIAB) samples with well characterized genome sequence data."
  • Cell Line Samples: Supplemental cell line samples with "at least one variant that has been identified and reported."
  • Orthogonal Validated Methods: Comparison to results from "a validated high-throughput sequencing platform," "a validated multiplexed PCR based test," or "a validated microarray."
  • Prior Clinical Laboratory Testing Results: For variant interpretation agreement, comparison was made to "independently generated prior clinical laboratory testing results" and "ClinVar classifications" (which are curated by expert panels).

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

The document does not provide a specific sample size for a "training set." The listed studies are for the validation of the device. The development of the "custom-built bioinformatics pipeline" and the "algorithm that weights the available clinical evidence" would have implicitly involved training data, but that data and its size are not detailed in this document, which focuses on validation data.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

Since no specific "training set" is described with sample sizes, the method for establishing its ground truth is also not explicitly stated. However, the general approaches described for variant assessment and interpretation ("assessed by clinical professionals using currently available literature and data from public genetic variant databases," "curated by qualified Invitae staff" according to SOPs, consultation of "external databases") would logically form the basis for establishing ground truth for any data used in the development or "training" of the bioinformatics pipeline and variant interpretation rules.

*Genes of high clinical significance are defined as those for which the test result(s) may lead to prophylactic screening, confirmatory procedures or treatment that may incur mortality to the patient and are shown in bold text.

Identified variants are assessed by clinical professionals using currently available literature and data from public genetic variant databases. Variants are assigned a score, calculated according to an algorithm that weights the available clinical evidence. Possible outcomes include the following, which are based on joint ACMG/AMP Committee guidelines:

  • . Benign (not reported) - strong evidence of not being disease or risk causing
  • . Likely benign (not reported) - some evidence of not being disease or risk causing
  • . Likely pathogenic – some evidence in favor of causing disease or increasing risk
  • . Pathogenic - strong evidence of causing disease or increasing disease risk
  • Variant of Uncertain Significance insufficient information to classify in one of the other . four categories

Variants are reported using HGVS nomenclature and the human reference genome GRCh37.

B Principle of Operation

Materials and Equipment

The reagents, consumables, and instruments needed to perform the Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel test are used exclusively at, and qualified by the Invitae Corporation clinical laboratory (1400 16th Street, San Francisco, CA 94103). Instrumentation includes integrated, automated systems that incorporate liquid handling instruments, incubators, thermal cvclers, sonicators, and centrifuges, as well as Illumina NovaSeq 6000 sequencers. Reagents include extraction reagents, custom-made molecular barcode (TAFT) plates, buffers, PCR Cleanup Mag Beads, ER/AT Mix, Ligase Mix, PCR Master Mix, custom baits and blockers, PCR primer mix, streptavidin beads, and sequencing reagent kits.

Specimen Collection and Preparation

The test includes a specimen collection kit, which is sent to ordering physicians. The shipping kit contains the following components:

  • Plastic whole blood collection tube with K2EDTA .
  • Patient information card with IB code sticker
  • Test requisition form
  • Biohazard bag and absorbent pouch, for submission of specimen
  • . Handling instructions for shipping the specimen

The healthcare provider is directed to collect a 3 mL whole blood specimen, label the tube in the space provided with the patient's full name and at least one additional unique identifier, then ship the specimen to the Sponsor's laboratory at room temperature. When the specimen is received by the Sponsor, the accessioning operators inspect it for the following acceptance criteria:

  • Minimum testing volume of 1.5 mL ●
  • No evidence of clotting ●

{5}------------------------------------------------

  • No evidence of leaks ●
  • Specimen collection date <90 days from receipt of the kit
  • Paperwork matching tube label ●

Samples are processed as soon as they are received.

DNA Extraction, Normalization and Shearing

Genomic DNA is extracted from whole blood specimens per protocol using automated extraction and extraction kit qualified by Invitae. Unique molecular tags (TAFTs, Tagged Amplicons For Tracking) are appended to a region of non-clinical significance and processed with the samples from the time of extraction throughout the wet lab process. This allows sample identification to be maintained when samples are processed multiplexed. Extracted DNA is quantified and normalized to 23ng/uL to create batches for assay processing. The DNA is then sonically sheared into consistently sized pieces. Following DNA shearing, the DNA goes through a series of small enzyme-mediated steps that repair the sheared ends of the DNA sample and attach specific oligonucleotides to the ends of the sample. These oligonucleotides are specific for primers that are used in subsequent steps to anneal to them. This includes end-repair, A-tailing, adapter ligation, and dual-indexing of each sample.

DNA Processing and Library Preparation

The specific fragments that contain targeted regions for the assay (i.e., the exonic regions for all 47 genes that are sequenced in this test) can be isolated from the remaining gDNA in the sample. Library production is fully automated end-to-end with integrated robotic systems; the system can create approximately 1,600 libraries every 8 hours with no human intervention. Libraries are pooled by row to create 8 pools of 12 libraries each.

Hybridization

Following library preparation, the barcoded fragments are mixed, and the relevant DNA segments annealed to biotinylated probes for magnetic bead capture. The probes hybridize to the patient DNA samples and these fragments are separated from the rest of the genomic DNA using a magnet that interacts with ferromagnetic beads attached to avidin bound to biotin, which enables all non-bound DNA to be washed away. The beads are manufactured by a third-party vendor per the Sponsor's specification. Both ends of the fragments are sequenced, the sequence of the links is deconvoluted using the molecular barcode to identify which sample each fragment was derived from, and the sequence is aligned to the reference.

Sequencing

The system uses Illumina's NovaSeq, a high throughput sequencing system that employs Sequencing-by-Synthesis chemistry, to perform paired-end reads of 150 bases in length and dual-index barcode reads of 8-nucleotides on the adapters. Equimolar mixing of hybridization reactions forms sequencing pools that allow each library to be sequenced with a minimum of

{6}------------------------------------------------

4.000.000 clusters on the Illumina flow cell. The system's average read depth (i.e., coverage) is 450x; any region with coverage below 50x is flagged as "low" and manually reviewed in the bioinformatics pipeline. Any region below 20x coverage is flagged as "very low," and the sample is failed and either re-run or a new sample is requested.

Sequence Alignment/Mapping and Variant Calling

Following sequencing, raw BCL files are demultiplexed, producing individual fastg files for each sample, then mapped to the reference sequence, producing BAM files. The Invitae bioinformatics software then identifies "Active Regions", i.e., regions that may contain a putative variant, and different variant types are then called by the software.

Variant Interpretation and Review

Variant calls are annotated based on evidence from published literature, public databases, prediction programs, and an internal curated variants database. Regions with low read depth, split reads, or low CNV quality scores are flagged for manual review. All other variants are processed through a combination of automated processes and manual review. For all variants that have been seen previously, the most recent interpretation and associated evidence is automatically placed in the report. For novel variants, variants that have not been seen recently, and variants that have new clinical evidence available, the bioinformatics software has tools to aid the genetics professional in variant interpretation/classification. Variants are assigned one of the following classifications, which are based on joint ACMG/AMP Committee guidelines:

  • Pathogenic (Odds >99:1 in favor of causing disease or increasing disease risk) ●
  • Likely Pathogenic (Odds >9:1 but <99:1 in favor of causing disease or increasing ● risk)
  • Variant of Uncertain (Unknown) Significance (VUS) - Insufficient information to classify in one of the other four categories
  • Likely Benign (Odds >9:1 but <99:1 in favor of not being disease or risk causing) ●
  • Benign (Odds >99:1 in favor of not being disease or risk causing) ●

Refer to Section VI. C for more information on the interpretation and curation process.

Controls

  • a) No Template Control (NTC): A NTC is processed as a negative control through the DNA extraction process and post-extraction DNA quantification process. NTC is checked for position and post-extraction DNA quantification, to ensure the plate is being processed in the correct orientation and that the plate is not contaminated. The NTC is not included in the test steps post DNA quantification.
  • b) Positive control: A reference cell line sample is processed as a positive control from DNA extraction through sequencing. The positive control is checked for quality metrics such as library concentration, sequence coverage, and gap rates. Failure of the positive control to meet the pre-defined quality metrics will result in a plate failure.

Result Reporting

The Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel test results are for professional use only; the final clinical reports generated from the assay summarize the clinical findings for the ordering physician. Test reports are generated and reviewed by PhD level scientists, genetic counselors, as well as licensed, board-certified clinical molecular geneticists or licensed, board-certified molecular pathologists before signing out.

    1. Calibration:
      Not applicable
    1. Quality Control:
      Quality metrics are evaluated throughout the bench workflow, including library preparation, hybridization, and sequencing, to verify that samples have appropriate DNA concentrations at key points and that the sequencing run generates reads with adequate quality and depth. Failure to meet the prespecified quality thresholds results in manual review and possible resequencing. Post-sequencing quality metrics are assessed at the sample and batch level to determine sample and batch quality (Table 2). Samples are held for review whenever the value for a metric exceeds the thresholds in the QC Service. Batch quality is determined by reviewing the number of samples that failed for an individual given metric and a batch is held when the number of individual failures exceeds a predetermined threshold for number of failures. Samples and/or batches with holds are reviewed by trained professionals for quality according to Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) documents.

In addition, based on per variant QC metrics, any variant whose data does not reflect a minimum level of confidence that the variant was correctly called is assigned a "FILTER" flag. The criteria for SNV and Indel variants and CNVs are detailed in Table 3 and Table 4 below, respectively.

Table 3. FILTER Flag Criteria for SNVs/Indels
MetricDescriptionAcceptanceCriteria
QUAL (quality) scorePhred-scaled quality score measures the errorprobability of the called variant.< 30
QD (quality by depth) score if variantlength is ≤3 bpThe QD is the QUAL score normalized by alleledepth (AD) for a variant.< 2.0
Allele balance if variant length is ≤7 bpIn a location where a variant has been detected, theproportion of reads that indicate a variant< 0.15
Repeat Unit Wobble FilterThe detected variant is in a region with a highamount of variability between reads with respect tothe number of short tandem repeats (STRs - shortrepeated sequences of DNA)True
Variant is on curated "block list" of knownartifactsThe detected variant has been repeatedly identifiedin the past as being a result of the sequencingprocess or something other than an actual variant.True
Variant was removed following manualreview of dataUsed in specific cases which are selected usingadditional criteriaTrue

{10}------------------------------------------------

MetricDescriptionAcceptance Criteria
Excluded TargetTargets are excluded due to very low counts, aswell as inability to confidently call copy number(at that target) in too many of the baselinesamples. Baseline samples are used to establishwhat the expected profile of a sample with anormal number of copies of a target regionlooks like.***
BaselineCNVHigh proportion of copy number variants werecalled in the baseline OR there was a failure toconfidently call copy number in the baseline atthis target.***
CNVLowQual: Quality scoreThe quality score is derived from the likelihoodthat the call is normal for copy number normalevents and at least part of the called segment isa deletion/duplication for deletion/duplicationevents. Failing values indicate that thereremains significant uncertainty in the call.***
Variant is on curated "block list" ofknown artifactsThe detected variant has been repeatedlyidentified in the past as being a result of thesequencing process or something other than anactual variant.True
Variant was removed followingmanual review of dataUsed in specific cases which are selected usingadditional criteriaTrue

*** Pre-specified threshold values provided. Data not shown

Variants with a FILTER flag are later discarded. All other variants are assigned one of three flags (WARN, LIGHTWARN or CONFIDENT), which are later used to guide whether manual inspection may be needed.

VI Performance Characteristics:

A Analytical Performance:

1. Precision/Reproducibility:

The precision of the Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel was evaluated with two sets of clinical samples. The first set included 25 samples, with a total of 2,047 SNVs across 40 genes (including 11 genes of high clinical significance), 33 Insertions across 7 genes (including 2 genes of high clinical significance), 38 Deletions across 5 genes (including 1 gene of high clinical significance), 5 CNV duplications across 4 genes (including 1 gene of high clinical significance). and 16 CNV deletions across 12 genes (including 5 genes of high clinical significance). The second set included 18 samples enriched for Indels and CNVs, with a total of 19 Insertions across 4 genes (including 1 genes of high clinical significance), 12 Deletions across 7 genes (including 1 gene of high clinical significance), 7 CNV duplications across 6 genes (including 4 genes of high clinical significance) and 16 CNV deletions across 6 genes (including 5 genes of high clinical significance). Each sample was tested with 14 replicates across 3 different operators, 3 different sequencers, and 3 different sequencing reagent lots. The assay runs were performed on 3 different, non-consecutive days. The repeatability of the assay was assessed by analyzing the concordance between sample replicates within the same run. The reproducibility of the assay was assessed by analyzing the concordance between sample replicates across runs, overall and across sequencing reagent lots, sequencing operators, and sequencers.

Results of the precision study are summarized in Table 11. The overall PPA is 99.95% (95% CI 99.92-99.97%) for SNVs, 99.57% (95% CI 99.07-99.80%) for Indels and 99.67% (95% CI 98.80-99.91%) for CNVs. The overall NPA is >99.99% for all variant types (95% CI >99.99-100%) (Table 5).

** # Detected positive variants: the total number of positive/negative variants that were detected across replicates of the study samples.

The PPAs are >99% across different zygosity (for SNVs), variant sizes (for Indels and CNVs) or genomic contexts, except for deletions of 1-5bp, for which the PPA is 97.53% (95% CI 94.72-98.86%) (Table 6 and Table 7). This was due to 6 false negative results for the same variant on the SDHA gene, which were in a low mappability/complexity region.

*For SNVs and Indels, a "no call" is an area that could not be called due to a sample or region-specific limitation like an unfilled coverage gap. The no call (NC) rate for SNVs and Indels is calculated as the proportion of variants with a no call result in the total number of SNV/Indel called variants, assessed across all sample comparisons.

{15}------------------------------------------------

For CNVs, a "no call" is a region that could not be called due to a sample or region-specific limitation like an unfilled coverage gap. The NC rate for CNVs is calculated as the proportion of CNV target regions with a no call result in the total number of target regions, assessed across all sample comparisons.

    1. DNA input:

{30}------------------------------------------------

During the test procedure, extracted DNA is quantified and normalized to 23ng/uL to create batches for assay processing. To evaluate the impact of different levels of DNA input on the Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel test performance, eight whole blood clinical specimens with representative variants were tested across five input levels spanning 10 fold below and 2 fold above the standard input level of 23ng/uL. These samples include a total of 659 SNVs across 36 genes, 12 Indels across 6 genes, and 13 CNV across 4 genes in different genomic contexts (Table 12). The samples were tested at 1, 5, 10, 23 (standard concentration), and 46 ng/uL, each in triplicate, for a total of 120 samples (8 unique samples x 5 input levels x 3 replicates/ input level = 120 samples). Number of failed samples, number of samples with low coverage, overall concordance, PPA, and NPA compared to the 23ng/uL input were evaluated at each input level.

Results of the study are summarized in Table 13 to Table 15. At all DNA input levels, the overall concordance, PPA and NPA are >99% compared to the standard input. However, five sample failed QC metrics at 1ng/uL, and six samples failed QC metrics at 46ng/uL. Therefore, the minimum DNA input for the Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel was determined to be 5 ng/uL. DNA input higher than 23ng/uL may lead to sample failure and should be normalized to 23ng/uL for assay processing. One variant type - CNV deletions - fell slightly below 95% PPA at 5 ng/uL. This was due to 2 false negative results for the same variant on the NF1 gene, which was in an AT rich region.

4. Analytical Specificity/Interference:

Two studies were performed to evaluate the impact on assay performance of endogenous and exogenous substances that may be present in test samples due to carry-through from patient samples or due to processing conditions. In each study, seven potential interfering substances, including bilirubin, K2EDTA, wash buffer, TAFT, hemoglobin, and triglycerides, were each spiked at varying levels into specimens sourced from a blood bank. Blood from another donor was also tested in the first study to mimic a stem cell or bone marrow transplant patient. In the first study, samples were tested in three replicates at each level; in the second study, samples, enriched for Indels and CNVs, were tested in two replicates at each level (Table 16). The variants tested included those in challenging genomic contexts such as AT rich, GC rich, and low complexity regions. Results were analyzed for number of failed samples, number of samples with low coverage, overall concordance, PPA, and NPA compared to the un-spiked condition. Results of the interfering substances study are summarized in Table 20. Bilirubin, TAFTs, hemoglobin, and triglycerides were determined not to affect assay performance with the tested levels. Blood from a second donor caused the assay to fail at all levels of contamination as expected. False negative CNVs were reported in the samples with K2EDTA and wash buffer

{32}------------------------------------------------

added. In both cases, the replicates of the control sample were discordant with each other for the same variants. Inappropriate addition of PMS2 amplicon caused all samples to fail QC metrics for CNV detection, as well as decreased PPA for Indel detection. This is because the CNV calling algorithm cannot form a baseline when there is an unexpected read count due to the presence of the inappropriately introduced large amplicons. Therefore, amplicon presence should be stringently controlled in laboratory workflows, through use of filtered tips, automation and other good laboratory practices.

6. Carry-Over and Cross-Contamination:

Indexing misassignment is minimized through use of dual indexing. To evaluate the rate of contamination, a retrospective analysis was performed of all clinical samples run with the Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel over the course of one year to calculate the percent of clinical samples with contamination above the QC threshold of 2.5% alien DNA. Overall, 0.29% of the samples had evidence of contamination above the QC threshold (Table 21).

Above the QC Threshold (≥2.5%)3480.29%

7. DNA Integrity:

A study was conducted to evaluate the impact of DNA degradation on the performance of the Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers panel test by using an established measurement of "DNA Integrity", which mimics the DNA degradation process in nature. DNA degradation may occur during pre-analytical specimen handling, whether due to processing errors or specimen collection, transport, or storage conditions. In the study, gDNA samples from 5 individual specimens were sheared by sonication to three ranges. These ranges were measured using the DNA Integrity Number as follows: high molecular weight (>7), medium molecular weight (3-7), and low molecular weight (<3). The high molecular weight bin represents DNA that has little or no denaturation; this was therefore considered the control condition. Samples were run in triplicate and analyzed for number of failed samples, number of samples with low coverage, overall concordance, PPA, and NPA compared to the control condition. Results of the study are summarized in Table 22. There was 100% concordance, no failed samples or samples with low coverage across all samples and all DNA integrity ranges, indicating that DNA degradation did not impact assay performance. No difference in performance was found between SNVs and Indels; CNVs were not present in the samples therefore could not be evaluated.

8. Traceability, Stability, Expected Values (Controls, Calibrators, or Methods):

  • a) Specimen Stability
    To evaluate the potential impact of transport and storage on characteristics of blood specimens that may affect assay performance with the Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel, blood specimens were tested for DNA concentration, quality as measured by DIN and variant detection by the Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel at baseline, then stored at 4℃, room temperature, or 40°C. At predetermined time points, samples were tested again for DNA quality, quantity and variant detection by the Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel, and compared to the baseline level. In addition, to simulate the freezing and thawing that may occur in transit, specimens were subjected to up to 3 cycles of freezing at -80°C for 3 hours or overnight, then thawing for 3 hours. Ten specimens were tested for room temperature (including 649 SNVs across 39 genes, 11 Indels across 5 genes and 10 CNVs in 1 gene), 4ºC (including 775 SNVs across 37 genes and 33 Indels across 10 genes), and 40℃ and freeze/thaw (including 886 SNVs across 37 genes and 14 Indels across 8 genes). The samples in the 40℃ and freeze/thaw conditions were tested in 3 replicates.

Results of the study are summarized in Table 23. While decrease of the DNA concentrations and quality was observed over time, the concentrations remained higher than the standard input to this test, and the changes in DNA quality did not exceed the threshold required. The PPA and NPA, and overall concordance are >99% at all timepoints for all conditions, supporting the stability of the specimens for the assay performance with the Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel.

b) Reagent Stability

Studies were performed to establish the stability of the master plates of TAFTs (molecular barcodes), the diluted TAFT plates that are stamped and later used in production, and the baits. For master stock TAFT plates, five stamped plates from each of 3 stock plate designs from each of three manufactured plate lots, representing 303 ± 94 samples per stock plate were analyzed for the percentage of samples that passed the TAFT QC metrics. For diluted TAFT plates, all available plates older than 1 year at time of use, for each of 3 selected plate designs from each of three manufactured plate lots, representing 450±48 samples run were analyzed for the percentage of samples that passed the TAFT QC metrics. For the baits, control sample data for the genomic regions targeted by the bait components were analyzed for gaps in coverage and concordance with the reference sequence. The results of the study are summarized in Table 24. All reagents analyzed met the acceptance criteria, establishing stability as follows:

  • Master stock plates stored frozen are stable for at least 36 months ●
  • Diluted plates are stable for at least 12 months ●
  • Baits are stable for at least 33 months ●

9. Multiplexing:

The Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel test is multiplexed at two steps:

  • At library prep: Libraries are pooled by row to create 8 pools of 12 libraries each. .
  • At sequencing: Equimolar mixing of hybridization reactions forms sequencing pools that . allow each library to be sequenced with a minimum of 4,000,000 clusters on the Illumina flow cell. The number of samples in a pool depends on what other assays are being run at the same time.

Unique molecular barcodes are added to individual samples during extraction to ensure that sample identification is maintained throughout the process, even when multiplexed. QC checks built into the test system verify that the molecular barcodes have performed as expected. As demonstrated in the interfering substances study, the molecular barcodes - referred to as TAFTs - spiked at 5%. 15%, and 30% above the standard operational levels did not impact performance of the test. An additional analysis was performed using data from the analytical validation studies. In these studies, each sample has, on average, over 60 variant calls distributed across the 47 loci. Thus, each sample has a nearly unique sequencing footprint. This provides high confidence that the performance of the molecular barcodes for preserving sample identity fidelity can be confirmed using the concordance analysis of the sequencing results. All of the studies performed across all validations were multiplexed with post hybridization multiplexing levels (pool sizes) between 49 to 1485. Pooling sizes and configurations are designed so that read depth can be maintained at a level that meets quality thresholds. Read depth are maintained at a level that meets quality thresholds for all post hybridization multiplexing levels. No trends were observed that suggested that the pool size negatively impacted the read depth.

10. Guardbanding:

A guardbanding study was conducted to establish the robustness of the Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel test by assessing the impact of varying critical input parameters - the DNA input concentration at the library preparation, hybridization, and sequencing steps - related to test run quality metrics. To assess the impact of varying these parameters, eight DNA samples from clinical specimens were run in duplicate with a series of manual manipulations during runs, wherein the input concentrations were varied by +/-5% and +/-10% at each step. The samples contained representative variants across variant types and different genomic context, including 753 SNVs across 39 genes, 14 insertions/deletions across 7 genes and 8 CNVs across 6 genes. Assay results were analyzed for number of failed samples, number of samples with low coverage, overall concordance, PPA, and NPA compared to the standard condition. Results of the study are summarized in Table 25. The assay was demonstrated to be robust when input concentrations for the library prep, hybridization, and sequencing steps were varied up to 10%.

{42}------------------------------------------------

a) Comparison Study using Non-Clinical Samples

The primary analysis for this study used five Genome in a Bottle (GIAB) samples with well characterized genome sequence data. Of the 169,458 base positions in the 47 genes, over 155,000 are characterized in each of the GIAB samples, for a total of 778,829 data points generated across five samples. This includes both wild type bases and homozygous and heterozygous SNV and Indel variants across different genomic contexts (total of 389 SNVs across 34 genes and 7 Indels across 4 genes). The performance of the assay was assessed based on concordance with the reference data, in the form of PPA, NPA and Technical Positive Predictive Value (TPPV).

To expand the variant types represented in the analysis, additional 92 supplemental cell line samples were also tested, including a total of 24 SNVs across 14 genes, 101 insertions/deletions across 18 genes and 10 CNVs across 8 genes. While these samples each have at least one variant that has been identified and reported, data is not available for the other positions overlapping the reportable range for this assay. Therefore, results for these samples were included in the calculation of PPA and TPPV, but not NPA.

The results of the study are summarized in Table 26 to Table 28. The percentage of no calls/invalid calls is 0%. The PPA, NPA and TPPV are 100% across all samples for all variant types.

b) Comparison Study using Clinical Specimens

A study was performed to evaluate the accuracy of the Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel using clinical specimens tested at Invitae. Specimens were selected for representation across the panel using consecutive sampling in a pre-specified time period to minimize bias. Specimens were from patients diagnosed with cancer and individuals tested for predisposition assessment. Specimens were first tested with the Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel, and results were compared with a validated orthogonal method. The analyses were adjusted to account for the method of specimen selection (i.e., technical positive value or TPPV) ! Positive variants were of clinical significance (Pathogenic, Likely Pathogenic or VUS).

For SNVs and Indels, a total of 6014 samples were tested, including 2181 SNVs distributed across 44 target genes and 3914 Indels across 40 genes. The results of the Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel were compared to a validated high-throughput sequencing platform. In addition to evaluation of false positives, evaluation of false negatives (i.e., technical negative predictive value or TNPV) was performed by interrogating the wild-type flanking sequence spanning 100 to 800 bp for each variant of interest generated by the Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel. Using this approach, over 72% of the entire reportable range was compared between the Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel and the orthogonal method. For CNVs, a total of 3542 samples were tested, including 3601 CNVs distributed across 44 target genes. The results of the Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel were compared to a validated multiplexed PCR based test or a validated microarray. Data from the variant sites were used to calculate TPPV of the test. To evaluate TNPV of the test, additional 106 clinical specimens with prior negative results for CNVs by the Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel were tested across 476 target regions on 28 genes using the validated multiplexed PCR based test. Results were compared between the two assays and TNPV values were calculated.

Summary of the results are shown in Table 29. The overall TPPV is 99.9% (95% CI 99.7->99.9%) for SNVs, 100% (95% CI 99.9- 100%) for Indels and 99.5% (95% CI 99.2- 99.7%) for CNVs. The overall TNPV is 100% for SNVs (95% CI >99.9%- 100%), 100% for Indels (95% CI >99.9- 100%), and 99.7% for CNVs (95% CI 99.6- 99.7%).

AD = autosomal dominant; AR = autosomal recessive

*Genes of high clinical significance are defined as those for which the test result(s) may lead to prophylactic screening, confirmatory procedures or treatment that may incur mortality to the patient and are shown in bold text.

b) Database

The Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel test system employs multiple databases that store variant information, including one within the VDB software and another within the CROP software.

{55}------------------------------------------------

VDB contains normalized representations of variants, as well as both left- and right-aligned representations of variants. These variants are annotated. As new variants are encountered in patient samples, they are added to the database and go through the annotation process using various annotation sources. Variants that have been encountered before are verified to ensure that annotations are present and up to date, with any missing annotations flagged for manual review.

CROP contains variant classifications (i.e., pathogenic, likely pathogenic, uncertain significance, benign, likely benign) and the supporting evidence supporting the classifications, which has been curated by qualified Invitae staff. Gene-disease relationship curation and variant interpretation is performed according to controlled SOPs by trained individuals who have passed a competency assessment. A variety of external databases are consulted. When a novel variant is encountered, CROP pulls in relevant clinical evidence for evaluation. Variant interpreters review the PMIDs and website resources associated with the variant's HGVS nomenclature and assign an evidence type to each individual piece of evidence. Based on this evidence, a classification is calculated, assigned, reviewed, and finalized. The final interpretation is then stored in CROP. When the variant is encountered again, CROP automatically checks how recently the variant was last seen and triggers a new search for and evaluation of any new evidence.

c) Interpretation Agreement

To evaluate the performance of variant classification, interpretation and reporting, a study was performed to compare result interpretations made by the Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel and independently generated prior clinical laboratory testing results. In this study, results from a total of 975 patients, representing 1874 unique BRCA1/BRCA2 variants, were examined. These patients were referred for hereditary breast/ovarian cancer (HBOC) counseling, or have known familial mutations, or have personal or familial HBOC high risk factors. Patients had prior BRCA1/2 results using an orthogonal method, as well as results obtained from a 29-gene panel, which is a subset of the Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel that included BRCA1 and BRCA2, and utilizes consistent variant annotation framework as the Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel. Variant interpretation was compared between the Invitae results and the prior clinical laboratory testing. Across the total of 975 patients, there was 98.9% concordance (964 patients, 1765 variants) between the Invitae interpretation and the prior results from an orthogonal laboratory.

A second analysis was performed to evaluate the concordance between Invitae variant classifications and ClinVar classifications. At the time of the analysis, 9 of the 47 target genes (BRCA1, BRCA2, CDH1, MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2, PTEN and TP53) have Expert Panel submissions in ClinVar. All available variants (total of 3190, including 3102 SNVs, 17 Indels and 71 CNVs) were evaluated across these 9 genes, and 97% of Invitae classifications were concordant with ClinVar. Results of the analysis are summarized in Table 36. The concordance between Invitae variant classifications and ClinVar classifications is evaluated annually to ensure that the rule sets and the professional application of those rule sets continues to agree with the clinical interpretations issued by other clinical and medical groups.

In addition, to evaluate the performance of the Invitae bioinformatics pipeline in appropriately linking variant classification to report level clinical results, a total of 95 cases were evaluated, for which clinical results were determined and reviewed manually by professionals, representing every possible combination, comparison was made between the software output and manual evaluation. 100% concordance of clinical results were observed between manual evaluation and software output, based on variant classification inputs.

IX Benefit/Risk Assessment:

Summary of the Assessment of Benefit: A

The Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel is a qualitative high-throughput sequencing based in vitro diagnostic test system intended for analysis of germline human genomic DNA extracted from whole blood for detection of substitutions, small insertion and deletion alterations and copy number variants (CNV) in a panel of targeted genes. This test system is intended to provide information for use by qualified health care professionals, in accordance with professional guidelines, for hereditary cancer predisposition assessment and to aid in identifying hereditary genetic variants potentially associated with a diagnosed cancer. The test is not intended for cancer screening or prenatal testing. Results are intended to be interpreted within the context of additional laboratory results, family history, and clinical findings. The test is a single-site assay performed at Invitae Corporation.

There are probable benefits to the population(s) for whom the Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel test system is intended, including individuals with a diagnosed cancer, and individuals with a family history of developing a certain type or types of cancer. The benefit includes detection of cancer predisposition variants and is supported by the extensive analytical validation and clinical validation of the device, which indicates that use of this device, may aid in appropriate medical management for patients with identified variants. Overall, the Invitae Common Hereditary Cancers Panel test would inform qualified health care professionals, to act in accordance with professional guidelines, for hereditary cancer predisposition assessment and to aid in identifying hereditary genetic variants potentially associated with a diagnosed cancer. This would provide benefit to patients and other family members, in receiving the appropriate medical management for the mutation/alteration identified. The performance of the analytical accuracy study in particular, supported the probable benefit of this device. A total of 6014 samples with SNVs or Indels and 3648 samples with CNVs were included in the analytical accuracy study. The overall TPPV is 99.9% for SNVs, 100% for Indels and 99.5% for CNVs.

The overall TNPV is 100% for SNVs. 100% for Indels, and 99.7% for CNVs. The totality of the analytical and clinical data provided support a probable benefit of this device, for the uses indicated.

B Summary of the Assessment of Risk:

The probable risk associated with the use of this device are mainly due to 1) analytical false positive, false negatives, or failure to provide a result and 2) incorrect interpretation of variants/alterations by the lab and 3) incorrect interpretation and use of test results by the enduser.

False negatives may lead to patients not being able to avail of appropriate surveillance or management that could benefit the patients. False positives may lead to patients being offered surveillance or management options that are inappropriate for the patients, and that can be associated with other clinical sequelae. Erroneous device results could adversely influence clinical interpretation and consultation for patients. However, this test is not conclusive or prescriptive for the use of any specific therapeutic product or therapeutic pathway and the interpretive statements regarding the clinical implications of a given mutation should not be viewed as a formal treatment or management recommendation.

There is a degree of probable risk of mismanagement of patient care, in accordance with professional guidelines, based on false test results from this test, or incorrect interpretation of test results. These risks are mitigated by the analytical performance of this device, clinical validation and labeling of this device.
