The reproducibility of trophectoderm biopsies in euploid, aneuploid, and mosaic embryos using independently verified next-generation sequencing (NGS): a pilot study
2020
Overview
PurposeTo assess the accuracy and reliability of comprehensive chromosome screening by next-generation sequencing (NGS) of human trophectoderm (TE) biopsy specimens.MethodsThe reliability and accuracy of diagnoses made by preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) from TE biopsy were tested. Repeat biopsies of TE and inner cell mass (ICM) samples were obtained from thawed blastocysts previously tested by NGS. To test for the reliability of the NGS assay, biopsy samples were compared with the original PGT-A results. Prior NGS testing classified the TE samples as euploid, aneuploid, or aneuploid-mosaic. The resulting re-biopsied samples underwent SurePlex whole genome amplification followed by NGS via the MiSeq platform, with copy number value (CNV) determined using BlueFuse Multi Software. The primary outcome measure was reliability, defined as concordance between initial TE result and the repeat biopsies. Accuracy was determined by concordance between the TE and ICM samples, and compared between three chromosome types (disomic, aneuploid, and mosaic).ResultsRe-biopsies were performed on 32 embryos with prior PGT-A showing euploidy (10 embryos), aneuploidy of one or two chromosomes (4 embryos), or aneuploid-mosaic with one aneuploid chromosome and one mosaic chromosome (18 embryos). One hundred twenty-nine biopsy samples completed NGS (90 TE and 39 ICM biopsies) and 105 biopsy results were included in the analysis. TE biopsies provide a highly accurate test of the future fetus, with the ICM disomic concordance rate of 97.6%. Clinical concordance rates indicate that TE biopsies provide a reliable test when the result is euploid (99.5%) or aneuploid (97.3%), but less reliable when the result is mosaic (35.2%).ConclusionTE biopsies predict euploidy or aneuploidy in the ICM with a high degree of accuracy. PGT-A with NGS of TE biopsies is shown to be highly reliable, with clinically relevant concordance rates for aneuploidy and euploidy over 95%. TE biopsies indicating mosaicism were less reliable (35.2%), presumably because mitotic non-disjunction events are not uniformly distributed throughout the blastocyst. However, classification of TE biopsy of PGT-A with NGS results as either aneuploid or euploid provides a highly reliable test.
