Genotyping data of routinely processed matched primary/metastatic tumor samples.

ABSTRACT: Genotypic and phenotypic comparisons of tumors in multiple tissue samples from the same patient are important for understanding disease evolution and treatment possibilities. Panel NGS genotyping is currently widely used in this context, whereby NGS variant filtering and final evaluation constitute the basis for meaningful comparisons. Here, we present the genotype data used for genotype / phenotype comparisons between matched primary / metastatic colorectal tumors in the work by Chatzopoulos et al (doi: 10.1016/j.humpath.2020.10.009), as well as the process followed for obtaining these data. We describe key issues while processing routinely formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumors for genotyping, NGS application (Ion Torrent), a stringent variant filtering algorithm for genotype ana
