Myeloma immunoglobulin rearrangement and translocation detection through targeted capture sequencing
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Multiple myeloma is a plasma cell neoplasm characterized by clonal immunoglobulin V(D)J signatures and oncogenic immunoglobulin gene translocations. Additional subclonal genomic changes are acquired with myeloma progression and therapeutic selection. PCR-based methods to detect V(D)J rearrangements can have biases introduced by highly multiplexed reactions and primers undermined by somatic hypermutation, and are not readily extended to include mutation detection. Here, we report a hybrid-capture approach (CapIG-seq) targeting the 3' and 5' ends of the V and J segments of all immunoglobulin loci that enable the efficient detection of V(D)J rearrangements. We also included baits for oncogenic translocations and mutation detection. We demonstrate complete concordance with matched whole-genome sequencing and/or PCR clonotyping of 24 cell lines and report the clonal sequences for 41 uncharacterized cell lines. We also demonstrate the application to patient specimens, including 29 bone marrow and 39 cell-free DNA samples. CapIG-seq shows concordance between bone marrow and cfDNA blood samples (both contemporaneous and follow-up) with regard to the somatic variant, V(D)J, and translocation detection. CapIG-seq is a novel, efficient approach to examining genomic alterations in myeloma.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
