Introduction

The BaseSpace® App TruSight Tumor 15 v2.0.1 reports on somatic variants of a set of reference panel genes associated with cancer. The app evaluates short regions of amplified DNA, or amplicons, for variants. Focused sequencing of amplicons enables high coverage of particular regions across many samples. After alignment, the app performs variant calling using the somatic variant caller.

The TruSight Tumor 15 workflow is uniquely suited to detecting variants in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples.
