The Impact of Core Tissues on Successful Next-Generation Sequencing Analysis of Specimens Obtained through Endobronchial Ultrasound-Guided Transbronchial Needle Aspiration

The success rate of next-generation sequencing (NGS) with specimens obtained through endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) among patients with lung cancer as well as the related clinical factors remain unclear. We aimed to determine the optimal number of punctu...

description The success rate of next-generation sequencing (NGS) with specimens obtained through endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) among patients with lung cancer as well as the related clinical factors remain unclear. We aimed to determine the optimal number of punctures and core tissues during EBUS-TBNA for NGS in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) as well as the association of chest computed tomography (CT) and EBUS findings with successful NGS. We retrospectively reviewed 156 consecutive patients with NSCLC who underwent EBUS-TBNA for NGS (Oncomine<sup>TM</sup> Dx Target Test). Using the receiver operating characteristic curve, we calculated the optimal numbers of punctures and core tissues for NGS and evaluated CT and EBUS findings suggestive of necrosis and vascular pattern within the lesion. The success rate of NGS was 83.3%. The cut-off value for the number of core tissues was 4, and the sensitivity and specificity of successful NGS were 73.8% and 61.5%, respectively. Logistic regression analysis revealed that the number of core tissues (≥4) was the sole predictor of successful NGS. CT and EBUS findings were not associated with successful NGS. Bronchoscopists should obtain sufficient core tissues for successful NGS using EBUS-TBNA specimens.
