Abstract A58: Curation of pediatric cancer variants within the Clinical Genome Resource (ClinGen)
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
Abstract Introduction: The Clinical Genome Resource (ClinGen) Somatic Working Group (sWG) is a multi-institution team engaged in developing processes, resources, and standards to support accurate classification of somatic variants in cancer. Existing decision support resources in cancer knowledgebases are heavily skewed towards genes and variants relevant in adult cancers; however, information to support variant interpretation in childhood cancers is limited. Here we report on the goals and progress of the Pediatric Cancer Taskforce, created within the ClinGen sWG, to lead curation efforts of actionable alterations in childhood cancers. Methods: The ClinGen sWG Pediatric Cancer Taskforce (PCT) consists of a core group of twelve members comprising geneticists, pathologists, and oncologists with expertise in different pediatric cancers and with representation from 9 leading pediatric institutions. The taskforce has a total of 35 members including volunteer-curators who work under guidance of the expert members. Curation of childhood cancer variants is conducted in collaboration with the Clinical Interpretation of Variants in Cancer (CIViC) team at Washington University in Saint Louis, using the CIViC knowledgebase (civicdb.org) and the ClinVar database as open-access curation and data-sharing platforms. Diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic evidence is tiered according to the AMP/ASCO/CAP guidelines for the clinical interpretation of somatic variants. PCT members are assigned specific genetic variant-tumor type associations for curation, which are then reviewed in monthly conferences to finalize assertions in CIViC. Results: The PCT has prioritized 40 genetic alterations relevant to pediatric cancer for curation based on their clinical relevance and the lack of sufficient existing curated evidence in clinical knowledgebases. To date, 4 assertions have been created and added to the database: HEY1-NCOA2 fusion in mesenchymal chondrosarcoma, KIAA1549-BRAF fusion and ACVR1 p.G328V variant in pediatric glioma, and EBF1-PDGFRB fusion in pediatric B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Active curation has been initiated for NTRK fusions agnostic of tissue histology, targetable kinase fusions in Ph-like B-lymphoblastic leukemia, and common variants in selected pediatric sarcomas and brain tumors, focusing heavily on driver gene fusions in childhood cancers. 119 evidence items have been created in CIViC by the members. The PCT also works to implement more standardized and accurate classification of pediatric cancers in CIViC and other cancer resources, and to enhance search for pediatric-specific data through appropriate tagging of evidence using ontology terms. Conclusions: As molecular alterations are increasingly relevant to the care of children with cancer, the ClinGen PCT will work to develop standards, processes, and resources for efficient and accurate determination of clinical relevance of pediatric cancer variants.

Prédiction machine sur la base complète
Imitation des enseignantsNi prévalence calibrée, ni vérité terrain. Validation humaine à venir. Le volet Gemma est une étiquette directe du modèle pour chaque travail de la base, lue sur la notice réduite au titre. Le volet Codex est un classifieur appris des 10 348 étiquettes directes de Codex et calibré sur les taux pondérés de l'échantillon; les champs sans appui suffisant ne portent aucun appel Codex. Le mode candidate est l'union des deux volets; le consensus est leur intersection. Ces sorties portent le statut machine_predicted_unvalidated et ne sont pas des étiquettes humaines.
