and somatic variants. NovaSeq 6000Dx instrument. Data analysis was config-
ured as part of the sequencing run set up with Illumina Run
Manager and was launched automatically after the se-
Methods quencing run completed, eliminating the need for manual
touchpoints to initiate analysis after sequencing (Figure 2).

Figure 1: Variant calling workflow—The NovaSeq 6000Dx instrument is part of an integrated, three-step workflow that includes library
preparation, high-throughput sequencing in either IVD or RUO Mode, and accelerated secondary data analysis with a paired DRAGEN server.

Accuracy of variant calling was measured by various High-quality sequencing data was obtained, enabling high
metrics that evaluated the accuracy of variant calling accuracy and precision for germline and somatic variant
against a known reference: calling (Table 2, Table 3).
NPA for germline variant detection 846 > 99.9 > 99.9
OPA for germline variant detection 846 > 99.9 > 99.9
NPA for somatic variant detection 846 > 99.9 > 99.9
OPA for somatic variant detection 846 > 99.9 > 99.9
a. Calculated as number of samples per run (47) × number of runs (18) = 846.
b. Lowest observed value by sample replicate across all 18 runs.
c. Lowest value when data from each run are analyzed in aggregate.
