Abstract

Purpose The NIH Undiagnosed Diseases Network (UDN) evaluates participants with disorders that have defied diagnosis, applying personalized clinical and genomic evaluations and innovative research. The clinical sites of the UDN are essential to advancing the UDN mission; this study assesses their contributions relative to standard clinical practices. Methods We analyzed retrospective data from four UDN clinical sites, from July 2015 to September 2019, for diagnoses, new disease gene discoveries and the underlying investigative methods. Results Of 791 evaluated individuals, 231 received 240 diagnoses and 17 new disease-gene associations were recognized. Straightforward diagnoses on UDN exome and genome sequencing occurred in 35% (84/240). We considered these tractable in standard clinical practice, although genome sequencing is not yet widely available clinically. The majority (156/240, 65%) required additional UDN-driven investigations, including 90 diagnoses that occurred after prior nondiagnostic exome sequencing and 45 diagnoses (19%) that were nongenetic. The UDN-driven investigations included complementary/supplementary phenotyping, innovative analyses of genomic variants, and collaborative science for functional assays and animal modeling. Conclusion Investigations driven by the clinical sites identified diagnostic and research paradigms that surpass standard diagnostic processes. The new diagnoses, disease gene discoveries, and delineation of novel disorders represent a model for genomic medicine and science.

Abstract

Background Resources within the Undiagnosed Diseases Network (UDN), such as genome sequencing (GS) and model organisms aid in diagnosis and identification of new disease genes, but are currently difficult to access by clinical providers. While these resources do contribute to diagnoses in many cases, they are not always necessary to reach diagnostic resolution. The UDN experience has been that participants can also receive diagnoses through the thoughtful and customized application of approaches and resources that are readily available in clinical settings. Methods The UDN Genetic Counseling and Testing Working Group collected case vignettes that illustrated how clinically available methods resulted in diagnoses. The case vignettes were classified into three themes; phenotypic considerations, selection of genetic testing, and evaluating exome/GS variants and data. Results We present 12 participants that illustrate how clinical practices such as phenotype‐driven genomic investigations, consideration of variable expressivity, selecting the relevant tissue of interest for testing, utilizing updated testing platforms, and recognition of alternate transcript nomenclature resulted in diagnoses. Conclusion These examples demonstrate that when a diagnosis is elusive, an iterative patient‐specific approach utilizing assessment options available to clinical providers may solve a portion of cases. However, this does require increased provider time commitment, a particular challenge in the current practice of genomics.

Abstract

Purpose Sixty-75% of individuals with rare and undiagnosed phenotypes remain undiagnosed after whole exome sequencing (ES). With standard ES reanalysis resolving 10–15% of the ES negatives, further approaches are necessary to maximize diagnoses in these individuals. Methods In 38 ES negative patients an individualized genomic-phenotypic approach was employed utilizing: A) Phenotyping; B) Reanalyses of FASTQ files, with innovative bioinformatics; C) Targeted molecular testing; D) Whole genome sequencing (WGS) and E) Conferring of clinical diagnoses when pathognomonic clinical findings occurred. Results Certain and Highly Likely diagnoses were made in 18/38 (47%) individuals, including identifying two new developmental disorders. The majority of diagnoses (>70%) were due to our bioinformatics, phenotyping and targeted testing identifying variants that were undetected or not prioritized on prior ES. WGS diagnosed 3/18 individuals, with structural variants not amenable to ES. Additionally, Tentative diagnoses were made in three (8%) and in five individuals (13%) candidate genes were identified. Overall, diagnoses/potential leads were identified in 26/38 (68%). Conclusions Our comprehensive approach to ES negatives maximizes the ES and clinical data for both diagnoses and candidate gene identification, without WGS in the majority. This iterative approach is cost-effective and is pertinent to the current conundrum of ES negatives.
