description BackgroundRapid profiling of the EGFR mutations is crucial to help clinicians choose the optimal treatment for patients with advanced/metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC). Unfortunately, current diagnostic techniques, including ARMS-PCR and NGS, generally require several days to deliver final results. This diagnostic delay may lead to treatment delays for patients who are worsening rapidly.MethodsThis study introduced the ultra-rapid Idylla™ system for rapid, sensitive and specific identification of the EGFR mutations among Chinese NSCLC patients. Idylla™ EGFR Assay, an integrated cartridge running on the Idylla™ system, which can detect 51 EGFR mutations directly from Formalin-Fixed, Paraffin-Embedded (FFPE) samples within 2.5 hours, was used in this study. The sensitivity and specificity of the Idylla™ system were evaluated in comparison with ARMS-PCR or NGS using 95 clinical samples.ResultsThe Idylla™ system achieved a sensitivity of 97.6%, a specificity of 100%, and an overall concordance of 97.9% for 95 retrospective samples. When compared to ARMS-PCR, the Idylla™ system demonstrated high accuracy with an overall agreement of 97.1% (34/35), a sensitivity of 95.2% (20/21) (95% CI, 76.2% - 99.9%), and an estimated specificity of 100% (12/12) (95% CI, 76.8% - 100%) for 35 prospective samples.ConclusionsThis Idylla system provides a rapid, accurate and simple approach for screening EGFR mutations, which can guide Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors (TKI) treatment for NSCLC patients in a timely manner.
