Genetic Testing in the Genomic Era: What You Need to Know
Disclosures• I have no financial conflicts of interest or
connections/investments with any of the companies mentioned in this presentation
Objectives• Describe the technology and impact of genomic-scale testing in
research, clinical evaluation, and direct to consumer genetic testing
• Compare and contrast the strengths and weaknesses of various clinically available genomic-scale tests
• Given a clinical presentation, identify the most appropriate genomic-scale test

What is Genomic-Scale?
• Genetics vs. Genomics
- Genetics: Single gene effects
- Genomics: Functions/interactions of all genes in the genome (or larger subsets of genes)
Genetics Genomics
The Genomic Era Begins…
…in the 1950s
• Each chromosome has a characteristic banding pattern– 1 band: ~8000 kb DNA (8 Mb)– ~50 genes
Fluorescent In Situ Hybridization = FISH• Fluorescent probes bind only to areas with high degree of
• Detects copy number variants (CNVs)– Gains (duplications) and losses (deletions) – 1-5 kb– Will detect variants below the detection of both karyotype
(5000 kb) and FISH (100-300 kb)• ie, if you can see the CNV on a karyotype, you will see it on the CMA
– Does NOT detect re-arrangements or location of extra chromosomal material
• Need a karyotype and/or FISH for this
• First line test for patients with – intellectual disability and/or autism
AND– nondescript physical features
DNA from the patient and from a control (reference) is labeled with different colors and hybridized to a slide containing defined DNA probes
The fluorescence color is used to evaluate regions of DNA gain or loss.
- coverage is not as deep and uniform as multi-gene panel
• Uncertainty- High rate Variants of Unknown Significance (VUS)
• Incidental DNA variations related to other genetic disorders
• Covers “all” genes- ~2% of the genome
What Does WES Miss?
Does NOT detect several clinically significant types of
genetic lesions
AND
Misses more than ~25% of coding exons
(~18% disease genes)

Incidental Findings• Reporting of “secondary variants” remains
controversial
• The “AMCG-56” includes many cancer syndrome genes– BRCA1 and BRCA2 are on this list
• Wellderly (80-104 y/o and healthy) study preliminary results– 6% have a HGMD/ClinVar pathogenic variant
present– 5% have a HGMD/ClinVar likely pathogenic
variant presentAriniello, et. al. Frequency of “ACMG-56” Variants in Whole Genomes of Healthy Elderly. ASHG Meeting 2014.
• Limited medical availability- Uses NGS technology to find single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)- SNPs may be a/w increased or decreased risk of multifactorial diseases- Some SNPs are actual mutations a/w known genetic disease
• BRCA1 and BRCA2 but only the 3 most common mutations• This is NOT complete gene sequencing
• Family history still required for optimal interpretation
• Used for ancestry determination, identification of medical risks in adoptees, social/genetic networking
• Presents challenges for primary care doctors as data and risk magnitudes change almost daily and there is limited availability of genetic counseling
Direct to Consumer Genetic Testing
What does this look like in clinic?
• Pam is a healthy 48 year old who presents for her annual exam. – She reports that her mother’s first cousin recently died
from breast cancer.
• Pam has read the NY Times article by Angelina Jolie. – She is adamant that she would like to have BRCA
testing.– She also would like you to review her 23andMe results
and make a personalized health care plan for her.
• You review Pam’s chart: – previous mammograms demonstrated fibrocystic
breast tissue
• What should you do?
• Take a family history!• Pam is an only child• Family is mostly English and Irish. No known Ashkenazi ancestry.• Her mom’s first cousin died at age 55 from breast cancer
• But Pam is part of a huge extended family with no other individuals with breast or other cancers

• Pam is an only child
• Her mom’s first cousin died at age 55 from breast cancer
• But she is part of a huge extended family with no other affected individuals in her maternal lineage
• A newborn female has midface hypoplasia, upslanting palpebral fissures, low set small square ears, low tone, bilateral single palmar creases, and a heart murmur. You suspect Down syndrome.
• According to the AAP Health Supervision Guideline for Down syndrome, which of the following is the most sensitive test for Down syndrome in the first 24 hours of life?
• A newborn female has midface hypoplasia, upslanting palpebral fissures, low set small square ears, low tone, bilateral single palmar creases, and a heart murmur. You suspect Down syndrome.
• Which of the following molecular genetic tests gives you the most information regarding Down syndrome?
• AS presents for her 9 month old well child visit. Her medical history is significant for:Hypotonia and global developmental delaysSeizures well controlled with KeppraShort stature and g-tube for poor weight gainHemangioma right nuchal foldChromosomal microarray by report was normal
• During your well child check, which of the following is the best first step in determining the etiology of the patient’s features?
A. Repeat chromosomal microarrayB. Epilepsy panelC. Intellectual disability panelD. Whole exome sequencingE. Consultation with genetics
• Based on the clinical history and physical exam findings, which of the following is the best next step in determining the etiology of the patient’s features?
EDS with progressive kyphoscoliosis, myopathy, and
HL
Mutation in type 5 collagen is consistent with the classic form of EDS. This mutation changes a conserved triple helical glycine to an arginine therefore changing the structure of the resulting protein.
Changes in COL5A1 and COL5A2 have been found in approximately 50% of individuals with the classic form of EDS
COL5A1 accounts for ~46% COL5A2 accounts for ~4%
