Abstract: Methods for determining a variant frequency in a test sample from a subject, and methods for labeling sequencing reads as having or not having a variant are described herein. Exemplary methods include generating a reference match score and a variant match score by aligning sequencing reads to a corresponding variant sequence and a corresponding reference sequence, and labeling the sequencing read as having or not having the variant based on the determined match scores. Also described herein are methods monitoring disease progression and methods of treating a subject having a disease. Further described are devices and systems for implementing such methods.

Abstract: Novel RET fusion molecules and uses are disclosed.

Abstract: Nucleic acid molecule constructs, methods of making such construct, and methods of sequencing using such constructs are described herein. The nucleic acid molecule constructs can include a template sequence and a copy of the template sequence, along with a sequencing primer region associated with the template sequence and a copy of the sequencing primer region associated with the copy of the template sequence, which allows the template sequence and the copy of the template sequence to be simultaneously sequenced. Also described are methods of using the nucleic acid molecule constructs for methylation sequencing.

Abstract: A method of analyzing a tumor sample comprising: (a) acquiring a library comprising a plurality of tumor members from a tumor sample; (b) contacting the library with a bait set to provide selected members; (c) acquiring a read for a subgenomic interval from a tumor member from said library; (d) aligning said read; and (e) assigning a nucleotide value (e.g., calling a mutation) from said read for the preselected nucleotide position, thereby analyzing said tumor sample.

Abstract: Described herein is a composition, comprising: a first strand comprising a first portion and a first copy portion, wherein the first copy portion is a copy of the first portion except that substantially all cytosine bases in the first copy portion are methylated; and a second strand comprising a second portion and a second copy portion, wherein the second copy portion is a copy of the second portion except that substantially all cytosine bases in the second copy portion are methylated. In some implementations, at least one cytosine base in the first portion or the second portion is not methylated.

Abstract: Methods of evaluating or providing a clonal profile of a subject interval, e.g., a subgenomic interval, or an expressed subgenomic interval (or of a cell containing the same), in a subject, are disclosed.

Abstract: The present invention provides therapeutic, diagnostic, and prognostic methods for cancer. The invention provides methods of treating a cancer, methods of determining whether an individual having a cancer is likely to respond to a treatment including an immune checkpoint inhibitor (e.g., a PD-L1 axis binding antagonist), methods of predicting responsiveness of an individual having a cancer to a treatment including an immune checkpoint inhibitor (e.g., a PD-L1 axis binding antagonist), methods of selecting a therapy for an individual having a cancer, methods of providing a prognosis for an individual having a cancer, and methods of monitoring a response of an individual having a cancer, based on a blood tumor mutational burden (bTMB) score or a maximum somatic allele frequency (MSAF) from a sample (e.g., a whole blood sample, a plasma sample, a serum sample, or a combination thereof) from the individual.

Abstract: The invention is directed to modified oligonucleotide compositions and methods for selectively reducing unwanted nucleic acid contaminants and enriching for desired nucleic acid targets from complex genomic nucleic acid mixtures for sequencing applications. The modified oligonucleotide compositions include one or more modified groups that increase the Tm of the resultant oligonucleotide composition.
