Quantitative Mutational Assessment of Circulating Tumor DNA Using Massively Parallel Deep Sequencing in Plasma and Urine from Advanced Colorectal Cancer Patients 3 0 20 Theoretical 20 0 17 3 18 2 14 6 6 14 2 18 1 SAMPLE QUALITY o Total of 190 plasma and urine samples archived for 3-5 years were tested. o 101 of 101 plasma samples (100%) and 79 of 92 urine samples (86%) had sufficient DNA concentration and were deemed evaluable. The degree of DNA degradation in these archival urine samples is significantly elevated compared to typical clinical samples. 19 Actual (G12A) • Poisson distribution model: The theoretical model shows the number of positive and negative samples that would be present in a perfect Poisson distribution of our test using 20 replicates at each spike-in level. The actual positive/negative hit distribution follows the theoretical model for a Poisson distribution very closely, demonstrating the single copy sensitivity of the assay.

All patients were undergoing surgical treatment in combination with various systemic medical therapies including neoadjuvant radio/chemotherapy, adjuvant targeted therapy and adjuvant chemotherapy. Archived, matched longitudinal plasma and urine samples were collected and evaluated prior to surgery (baseline) as well as time intervals throughout the course of the disease. In a blinded retrospective study, concordance between archived tissue/plasma/urine samples was studied for baseline and urine and plasma KRAS was monitored longitudinally. 0/20 4 Week of Surgery 7/20/2009 PLASMA o KRAS mutation concordant with tumor tissue detected in 19 of 20 evaluable baseline plasma samples (95%). In one patient, a KRAS mutation was detected consistently across all serial plasma and urine samples but not in tissue biopsy.

Mutational tumor load quantification with high clinical sensitivity is vital for robust individualized assessment of systemic therapeutic responsiveness and resistance.
