Despite widespread interest in the application of next-generation-sequencing (NGS) to the mutation profiling of individual cancer specimens, the onset of personalized clinical genomics is currently stalled due in part to technical hurdles. As tumors are genetically-heterogeneous and often mixed with normal/stromal cells, the resulting low-abundance DNA somatic mutations often produce ambiguous results or fall below the current NGS detection limit, thus hindering mutation calling that abides to clinical sensitivity/specificity standards. Here we examine the feasibility of applying COLD-PCR, a form of PCR that magnifies selectively the mutations, to boost the detection of unknown rare somatic mutations prior to applying NGS-based amplicon re-sequencing to clinical samples. We amplified DNA from serially-diluted mutation-containing human cell-lines into wild-type (WT) DNA, as well as lung adenocarcinoma and colorectal cancer specimens using COLD-PCR or conventional PCR for comparison. Following individual amplification of TP53, KRAS, IDH1, and EGFR regions, PCR products were barcoded, pooled for library preparation and sequenced on the Illumina-HiSeq2000 platform. Regardless of sequencing depth, sequencing errors dictated a mutation-detection limit of ~1–2% mutation abundance in conventional PCR amplicons analyzed by NGS. In contrast, COLD-PCR amplicons enabled genuine mutations to exceed the sequence noise levels, thus allowing reliable identification of mutation abundances of ~0.04%. Sequencing depth was not a significant factor in the identification of COLD-PCR-magnified mutations. The analyzed clinical specimens revealed several TP53 and KRAS missense mutations that could not be called following NGS of conventional amplicons, yet were clearly detectable in COLD-PCR amplicons. Extensive tumor heterogeneity in the TP53 gene was revealed in some samples. As cancer care shifts toward personalized intervention, based on the unique genetic abnormalities in each patient’s tumor genome, we anticipate that COLD-PCR-NGS will elucidate the role of rare mutations in tumors, enable NGS-based analysis of diverse clinical specimens and the broad inter-phasing of NGS with clinical practice.
