Abstract

Background

HER2DX is a genomic test for early HER2+ breast cancer clinically available since January 2022 as a Laboratory Developed Test. Based on the expression of 27 genes (nCounter) plus tumor and nodal staging, it predicts the risk of relapse (risk-score), the probability of achieving a pathological complete response (pCR-score), and the individual levels of ERBB2 expression (ERBB2-score). Here, we report the analytical validation of HER2DX performed in a central laboratory (CLab) having as a reference the development lab (DLab).

Methods

Intra- and inter- labs HER2DX scores were compared by testing a set of FFPE samples previously analyzed at DLab. All scores ranged from 0 to 100 and pre-defined cut-offs were used to get HER2DX-groups. Repeatability and reproducibility were evaluated from different tissue sections, RNA, or FFPE blocks. Simulations (n=1·106) were used to calculate diagnostic values (sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values, and accuracy). Robustness was measured by evaluating the interference of non-tumor tissue and by using different RNA quantities. Differences due to the nCounter instrument, Tagset lot, and Tagset defrost cycles were also evaluated. HER2DX performance using a RNAseq platform (Illumina Exome Panel) was compared to nCounter.

Results

Repeatability analysis within CLab in 10 samples showed a maximal standard error among the 3 scores of 0.94 (scale 0-100). Reproducibility starting from RNA was analyzed in 20 samples, and the probabilities of +/- 5 units difference in the risk-score, pCR-score, and ERBB2-scores were 0.5%, 5.2%, and 0.2%, respectively. Starting from FFPE blocks, correlation of scores between labs were >0.97. In the simulation, all diagnostic values were >90% for the three scores, showing a high association in HER2DX-group classification between labs. Robustness at low tumor content samples (10%) or low RNA quantity (100 ng) was acceptable for the assay. No significant differences were observed across different nCounter instruments, Tagset lots and defrost cycles at CLab. Data from RNAseq and nCounter platforms were highly correlated in 30 analyzed RNA samples.

Conclusions

Analytical validation of HER2DX has proven it to be suitable for its intended purpose.
