Abstract 3351
Background
Microsatellite instability (MSI) is observed in 15% of all colorectal cancers (CRC), including Lynch syndrome caused by germline mutation of an MMR gene. Guidelines recommend assessing the MSI status of all CRC patients for screening for Lynch syndrome as well as for prognostic stratification. MSI-high tumors are more vulnerable to the immune system and therefore generally have a better prognosis.
Methods
The performance of the Idylla™ MSI Assay was compared to routine immunohistochemistry (IHC) and molecular tests (including Bethesda panel) on 1,301 archival CRC formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue sections, at 44 centers worldwide.
Results
The failure rate of the Idylla™ MSI Assay was 0.23%, while the molecular methods had a higher failure rate overall of 0.86% probably due to their use of a longer amplicon. IHC had a much higher failure rate of 4.37%, possibly related to interpretation difficulties of the results. Routine method failure rates might be an underestimation as the current analysis was done retrospectively on samples with known routine results. Compared to IHC, the results of 37 of the 1,075 samples tested were discordant, resulting in an overall concordance agreement of 96.6%. When taking molecular results and further analysis of discordant samples into account, the Idylla™ MSI result was confirmed in 16 samples. Compared to molecular methods, 16 of the 812 samples tested were discordant, resulting in an overall concordance agreement of 98.0%. Taking IHC results and further analysis of discordant samples into account, the Idylla™ MSI result was confirmed in 8 samples.
Conclusions
Results of the Idylla™ MSI Assay were highly concordant with results of routine tests and lower failure rates were observed. Further advantages are the lack of need for matched normal tissue, the low dependence on pre-analytical conditions, the simplified workflow, the short turnaround times, the automated result interpretation, and the very limited hands-on work.
