Figure 1 Clinical-grade dd-cfDNA assay workflow. Blood is drawn from a transplant recipient and delivered to the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendment laboratory in cfDNA preservation tubes. cfDNA is extracted and next-generation sequencing (NGS) library is generated by PCR amplification of a select panel of 266 single-nuceotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Libraries are sequenced and data are analyzed by custom-built bioinformatic pipeline hosted on a cloud-based genome data management platform. Relative fraction of dd-cfDNA is computed, results are verified by quality control software, and a summary report is automatically generated. All steps are performed using an established documented laboratory workflow and locked algorithms for sequence analysis, % dd-cfDNA computation, and quality control.

Figure 2 Total cfDNA assay input amounts in transplant recipients. Distribution of cfDNA assay input mass (ng) for 238 heart (top panel) and 185 kidney (bottom panel) transplant patients. cfDNA mass was determined by real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) using assays designed for PDCD1 and ERCC5 genes. These qPCR assays are 106 and 103 nucleotides, respectively, matching the length of the amplicons in the dd-cfDNA assay.

Figure 3 dd-cfDNA assay limit of blank (LOB) and limit of detection (LOD). A: LOB (dotted line) was determined as the 95th percentile of % dd-cfDNA for 180 blank samples (no donor genome present). B: Mean % dd-cfDNA for the four lowest levels (S1, S2, S3, and S4, 9 to 12 replicates each) of all three reference panels at 8-ng input mass are shown. Dotted line represents LOD, 0.16%. Error bars represent SD (B). n = 180 blank samples (A and B); n = 319 total samples (B). Bl, blank.

Figure 4 Limit of detection (LOD) for dd-cfDNA from transplant recipients with closely related donors. A: Fraction non-zero limit of blank (LOB) is determined as the 95th percentile of the fraction of recipient homozygous single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with alternate allele frequency higher than the zero cutoff for 180 blank samples (0.163, dotted line). B: The fraction of non-zero recipient homozygous SNPs (alternate allele frequency higher than the zero cutoff) is shown for each sample from reference panels at 8-ng input mass (circle; red, gray, and black for panels 1, 2, and 3, respectively). The fraction of non-zero SNPs for closely related donor-recipient pairs (siblings) was modeled based on Hardy-Weinberg principle (diamonds). The sample with the lowest % dd-cfDNA for which 95% of the repeats are higher than the LOB represents the LOD for the samples from closely related donor and recipient, 0.22% (vertical line).

Figure 5 Analytical performance of dd-cfDNA assay. A: Assay precision and limit of quantification (LOQ). Twelve replicates of each panel member at 3 (gray) and 8 ng (red) input mass, and 6 replicates at 60 ng (black) input mass were tested on different days by different operators across multiple instruments. The CV (CV = SD/mean × 100) for each of seven members from each of three panels is shown [panel 1 (circles), 2 (stars), and 3 (triangles)]. An exponential decay function was chosen as a model for the relationship between CV and mean dd-cfDNA spiked-in percentage, such that CV ≈ α + β*exp (-γ* dd-cfDNA). This model was fit using nonlinear least squares. The LOQ was defined as the lowest level of % dd-cfDNA measured at or above the limit of detection at which the CV was <20%. For 3-, 8-, and 60-ng mass input, LOQ is 0.37%, 0.22%, and 0.2%, respectively. Dotted line represents 20% CV. B: Assay linearity. Results from 8-ng input mass are shown relative to orthogonal validation of reference material by digital PCR of the EGFR T790M gene [panel 1 (circles), 2 (stars), and 3 (triangles)]. Digital PCR result was multiplied by 2 to correct for single-gene versus two-copy genome measurement. Vertical error bars represent SD of the % dd-cfDNA, horizontal error bars represent SD of digital PCR assay. Limited replicates of digital PCR at low dilutions resulted in large measurement error. C: Assay linearity in cfDNA sample mixtures from healthy volunteers diluted with recipient cfDNA. x Axis denotes fold dilution of the initial cfDNA mixture, which is set to 1 (100). D: High assay reproducibility in clinical samples. Blood was collected in two separate blood collection tubes from the same venipuncture from each of 22 transplant recipients. cfDNA was extracted from plasma and % dd-cfDNA assayed across multiple days, reagents, and operators.

Figure 6 Assay performance and validation in clinical samples. A: The linear range of the assay matches the physiological range of % dd-cfDNA for 136 transplant recipient samples from the Cardiac Allograft Rejection Gene Expression Observational (CARGO) II study. B: dd-cfDNA levels in patients experiencing moderate-severe rejection as determined by biopsy pathology (R) compared to samples from patients with no evidence of rejection (NR). Mean and median % dd-cfDNA in rejection-associated samples are 2.97- and 7.38-fold higher, respectively, than in nonrejection. C: dd-cfDNA was measured in three longitudinal samples from a heart transplant patient (CARGO II). Individual visits are shown as circles (no rejection or mild rejection) or triangle (moderate or severe rejection) and are annotated with the biopsy pathology grade (International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation 2004 system). The dd-cfDNA is reduced after treatment (three doses of 250-mg prednisone at the time of rejection). P = 0.008 by t-test (B). LOD, lower limit of detection; LOQ, lower limit of quantification; ULOQ, upper limit of quantification.
