Objectives

Narrative objectives1

As an ancillary study of the BRANCH study, this clinical performance study will be conducted using residual specimens from patients with solid tumors enrolled in Cohort D, who underwent BRCA1 and BRCA2 genetic testing (hereinafter referred to as BRACAnalysis) under insurance-covered medical care.
A novel 32-gene multigene panel test (hereinafter referred to as 32MGP) will be performed using these residual specimens, and the results will be compared with the BRACAnalysis results previously obtained in the BRANCH study to evaluate clinical performance.

Assessment

Primary outcomes

The Statistical Analysis Department will link the study registration number with the double-coded identification number using a correspondence table.
Using the BRCA1 and BRCA2 results obtained by the 32MGP as the index test and the BRACAnalysis results as the reference standard, the following performance metrics will be calculated: positive percent agreement (PPA), negative percent agreement (NPA), and overall percent agreement.
PPA = (Number of specimens with concordant positive results between 32MGP and BRACAnalysis / Number of specimens positive by BRACAnalysis) x 100
NPA = (Number of specimens with concordant negative results between 32MGP and BRACAnalysis / Number of specimens negative by BRACAnalysis) x 100
Overall percent agreement = (Number of specimens with concordant results / Total number of specimens tested by BRACAnalysis) x 100
