  • Patent number: 11929145
    Abstract: Technology provided herein relates in part to methods, processes, machines and apparatuses for non-invasive assessment of genetic alterations. In particular, a method is provided for that includes obtaining a set of sequence reads. The sequence reads each include a single molecule barcode (SMB) sequence that is a non-random oligonucleotide sequence. The method further includes assigning the sequence reads to read groups according to a read group signature. The read group signature comprises an SMB sequence and a start and end position of a nucleic acid fragment from the circulating cell free sample nucleic acid. The sequence reads comprising start and end positions and an SMB sequence similar to the read group signature are assigned to a read group. The method further includes generating a consensus for each read group, and determining the presence or absence of a genetic alteration based on the consensus for each read group.

  • Patent number: 11929143
    Abstract: Technology provided herein relates in part to methods, processes, machines and apparatuses for non-invasive assessment of copy number alterations. In particular, a method is provided for determining presence or absence of a copy number alteration for a test subject. The method includes providing a set of sequence reads. The sequence reads may be obtained from circulating cell free sample nucleic acid from a test sample obtained from the test subject, and the circulating cell free sample nucleic acid may be captured by probe oligonucleotides under hybridization conditions. The method further includes determining a probe coverage quantification of the sequence reads for the probe oligonucleotides and determining the presence or absence of a copy number alteration in the circulating cell free sample nucleic acid based on the probe coverage quantification of the sequence reads for the probe oligonucleotides for the test sample.

  • Patent number: 11515003
    Abstract: Technology provided herein relates in part to methods, processes, machines and apparatuses for non-invasive assessment of genomic nucleic acid instability and genomic nucleic acid stability. The method comprises providing a set of genomic portions each coupled to a copy number alteration quantification for a test sample, wherein the genomic portions comprises portions of a reference genome to which sequence reads obtained for nucleic acid from a test sample obtained from the subject have been mapped, and the copy number alteration quantification coupled to each genomic portion has been determined from a quantification of sequence reads mapped to the genomic portion; and determining, by a computing device, presence or absence of genomic instability for the subject according to the copy number alteration quantifications coupled to the genomic portions.
