Vidjil add-on for MRD quantification of samples processed using the EuroClonality-NGS protocol.

ABSTRACT: Assessment of minimal residual disease in acute lymphoblastic leukemia by immune repertoire NGS requires spiking CDR3 sequences at known quantities into the patient's sample. Recently, the EuroClonality-NGS group released one of the most comprehensive protocols for this purpose. ARResT/Interrogate is a closed-source software for processing these NGS libraries, developed by this same group. Vidjil, an open-source alternative, currently cannot handle libraries prepared using this protocol. Here, we present a Vidjil add-on to solve this issue. EuroClonality-NGS prepared samples analyzed with Vidjil and ARResT/Interrogate were highly concordant (r = 0.998) and presented low error (root-mean-square error, RMSE = 0.112).
