Abstract 7436: DeepSomatic: A SNV and small-indel somatic caller using deep neural networks

Le résumé fourni par la source

Abstract DeepVariant is a highly accurate germline variant caller that applies deep dearning to classify germline variants with high accuracy. Here, we present DeepSomatic, which applies DeepVariant’s convolutional neural network (CNN) to accurately call somatic mutations from paired tumor-normal sequencing and tumor-only sequencing. To develop DeepSomatic, we adapted the input pipeline to accommodate tumor-normal pairs. DeepVariant model inputs consist of a set of pileup images, also referred to as “channels”, that represent features extracted from sequence data at candidate sites. Features include base, base quality, mapping quality, and haplotype. Channel sets from both tumor and normal samples are combined. In this way, our model can compare tumor and normal reads and learns to distinguish germline variants from somatic mutations. For training, DeepSomatic uses sequence data from the SEQC2 consortium, which has established a benchmarking dataset for HCC1395 (a triple-negative breast cancer cell line) across a variety of sequencing technologies. Additionally, we have supplemented the SEQC2 data with additional sequencing from cell lines (H2009, H1437, HCC1954, HCC1937, Hs578T) to further improve our training datasets and enable benchmarking across different cancer types. We have also developed in silico samples that replicate varying levels of tumor purity and normal-sample contamination. Using these data, we have trained models on whole-genome data from Illumina, PacBio, and Oxford Nanopore (ONT). We report that DeepSomatic outperforms existing somatic callers across sequencing technologies. For example, we observe that our DeepSomatic Illumina model has a SNP F1 score of 0.983 on held-out chr1 HCC1395 data, which outperforms ClairS (F1=0.969), and Strelka2 (F1=0.952). Similarly, our PacBio model has a SNP F1=0.95 compared to ClairS (F1=0.935). Finally, our ONT model achieves an F1=0.869, which is an improvement over ClairS (F1=0.863). We similarly observe that DeepSomatic outperforms on F1 scores for indels as well for Illumina, PacBio, and ONT models. We plan to continue improving DeepSomatic through improvements to the software, models, and training data. We welcome community feedback. Citation Format: Daniel E.
