Advancing the pre- to post-transplant continuum It is with great pleasure that we bring you the latest issue of CareDx news. As you already know, in April 2016, CareDx, Inc. based in Brisbane, CA acquired Olerup’s parent company Allenex AB. Both companies have well established core products in transplantation, the combination of which creates a focused diagnostics company covering the pre- to post-transplant continuum.

I encourage you to turn the pages and learn more about our new venture together as we join forces to bring you new, innovative transplant diagnostics. In this issue we have decided to highlight important development within our core product lines for HLA typing.

Olerup QTYPE

Olerup SBT

Olerup SSP

The global introduction of Olerup QTYPE 11 and our SCORE 6 software continues. With a run time of just 43 minutes on the Roche LightCycler 480 II, and full HLA typing of 11 loci within one hour, Olerup QTYPE sets a new standard for speed in your laboratory. Our multiplexed TaqMan® approach provides the resolving power necessary to combat the persistent description of new alleles. Even with using only 1/3 of the plate capacity, Olerup QTYPE resolves the majority of single antigen bead alleles.

We have further strengthened our commitment to the HLA community by acquiring the rights of Conexio Genomics SBT portfolio (SBT Resolver™, HARPS™ and Assign™ SBT) and we have also signed an agreement with ThermoFisher making distribution of Big Dye Terminator and ExoSap possible. This facilitates both for us and our users by us now being able to provide all reagents needed in Sequence Based Typing.

For our Olerup SSP ® product line the work with updating never ends. Only the last months this year we have introduced over 300 new new primer mixes to our already benchmarking product making us baldly stating the we provide our users with the most updated product line in SSP typing.

AlloSure: Better Monitoring. Better Outcomes. CareDx continues to expand its testing services for post-transplant patients with AlloSure, the first and only noninvasive blood test that directly measures allograft injury and identifies the probability of active rejection to better manage kidney transplant patients. AlloSure is a clinical-grade, proprietary Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) based test that detects donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) in order to identify organ injury in kidney transplant recipients. Donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) is an analytically and clinically validated biomarker for kidney transplant rejection monitoring. Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) has been established as a biological marker in other areas of healthcare such as prenatal testing and oncology. AlloSure is analytically validated as a sensitive, specific, and precise measurement

of dd-cfDNA. Analytical validation studies of AlloSure have observed that circulating dd-cfDNA levels are higher at the time of active rejection compared to levels found in non–rejecting patients. The quantifiable range of dd-cfDNA is 0.20% - 16%. The analytical validation of AlloSure included

Further studies have been performed for clinical validation. For kidney transplantation, methods that are currently available for diagnosing active rejection are limited to either non-specific tests (e.g. serum creatinine) or invasive procedures (e.g. biopsy). The clinical validation study for AlloSure — Circulating Donor-Derived Cell-Free DNA in Blood for Diagnosing Acute Rejection in Kidney Transplant Recipients (DART) — was a nationwide study encompassing 14 transplant centers across the United States. The study started in 2015 and completed enrollment in June, 2016. The study’s objectives were to determine the ability of AlloSure to discriminate active rejection (acute active ABMR, chronic active ABMR, or TCMR) from no rejection, to compare the performance of AlloSure to serum creatinine, and to determine the ability of AlloSure to discriminate ABMR from the absence of ABMR. The results from the DART study found that AlloSure detects active rejection (acute ABMR, chronic active ABMR, or TCMR) with high accuracy, that it also outperforms serum creatinine in kidney transplant recipients, and that it is highly sensitive in distinguishing ABMR from no ABMR. (see Fig. 3) Information and data for AlloSure has been presented at several conferences, most recently as an oral presentation at the American Transplant Congress in May. AlloSure testing is conducted at the CareDx CLIA-CAP-accredited clinical laboratory in Brisbane, CA. Further information on AlloSure can be found at www.allosure.com

Olerup QTYPE supports Roche LightCycler  4 The Olerup QTYPE system enables speed and precision in HLA typing at a low to intermediate resolution for samples that require a fast turnaround time. The research use only product was launched at ASHI 2016 and consists of the QTYPE HLA typing kit and the SCORE 6 interpretation software on the Roche LightCycler 480 II RT PCR instrument. The last months we have been working hard on adding more real time instruments supported, namely the ViiA7 and QuantStudio 6 and 7.

Supported RT PCR instruments Roche LightCycler 480 II QuantStudio 6 QuantStudio 7 ViiA7

We are now proud to announce that Olerup QTYPE now also supports these three instruments.

Simple workflow The kit includes all necessary components for PCR, including a hot-start master mix. Only water and DNA need to be added to the master mix prior to dispensing across the plate. The assay is sensitive and requires only 5 μg of DNA, including overfill, for a full low to intermediate resolution 11 loci typing. Once the plate has been prepared, seal it with the included optically-clear sealing sheet, briefly centrifuge and place it in the real-time cycler. Data is collected in real time. After the run finishes, the raw data can be imported into SCORE 6, our purpose built software for real time data analysis. Our well-known software has been simplified for increased user-friendlyness and the database technology upgraded for improved reliability. In the software, an Olerup QTYPE run is associated with sample-specific information to obtain the final typing result.

HLA typing within an hour ”An Olerup QTYPE 11 run on a validated real time PCR instruments takes approximately 45 minutes and, when adding time to prepare the plate and the results analysis, we have a full 11 loci typing in around an hour”, says Ben Passey, Development Manager at Olerup.

Precision in real time, multiplexing for best possible resolution The Olerup QTYPE HLA typing kits use hydrolysis probe technology, a powerful and flexible multiplexing tool. This will allow us to have a kit with no ambiguities, the best resolution and gives us the flexibility to grow with the HLA database. Hydrolysis probes also eliminates primer dimers and PCR artefacts with no waiting for end point melt curves. Briefly, hydrolysis probes are sequencespecific primers with a fluorescent reportor molecule on one end and a fluorescence quencher molecule on the other end. Due to their close proximity on the probe, all the fluorescence emitted by the reporter is

They are designed to bind between the two PCR primer and during the extension step, the PCR polymerase cleaves the hydrolysis probe, freeing the fluorescent probe into the supernatant. With each cycle, the real time instrument automatically monitors the accumulation of fluorescence over time. These parameters are then used to automatically detect a positive or negative amplification.

used for HLA-specific reactions. This gives a potential of 1,149 HLA-specific reactions in a 384 well plate. In its current format, Olerup QTYPE 11 has 418 HLA-specific reactions, using approximately 35% of its’ total potential.

Overall, each reaction comprises of at least two SSP primers and a sequence-specific hydrolysis probe. Hence, each reaction uses three layers to determine specificity. Clearly, this increases the resolution power of each individual mix.

Olerup QTYPE – experience from the Hospital Clinic Barcelona Olerup is currently launching the Olerup QTYPE real-time typing product at several sites across Europe and the US. Olerup QTYPE 11, which offers low to intermediate resolution at eleven HLA loci (A-B-CDRB1345-DQA1-DQB1-DPA1-DPB1), is the first product to be officially launched from Olerup’s real-time PCR product catalogue. Utilizing the multiplexing capabilities of hydrolysis probes on 384-well trays, Olerup QTYPE 11 offers a robust, easy-touse HLA product line with minimal ambiguities, whilst still retaining plenty of capacity to cope with future IMGT / HLA allele database updates.

Hospital Clinic, Barcelona, Spain

CareDx news JUNE 2017

The ability of Olerup QTYPE 11 to provide a typing result at 11 loci in a total turnaround time of approx. 60 minutes (from DNA sample to final result) is highly attractive to labs that are running a program for typing deceased donors, where high quality, reliable HLA typing results are required in the shortest possible time frame. The Centro de Diagonóstico Biomédico – Inmunología at the Hospital Clinic in Barcelona, headed by Dr Eduard Palou, processes a large number of samples per year in the context of cadaveric transplantation. Dr Palou was interested to have an Olerup QTYPE product demonstration in his facility. With ready access to a Roche LightCycler 480 II, the demonstration consisted of running a color compensation plate, followed by two test samples. The Olerup QTYPE 11 master mix is ready to use, requiring simply

the addition of the correct volume and concentration of DNA to ensure 10ng of DNA per reaction. The DNA samples used in this demonstration had been extracted using a QIAsymphony device at a concentration such that less than 50µl of DNA was required to set up one full typing in each case. The test set up on the Olerup QTYPE 11 384-well tray was facilitated by the use of a multichannel pipette and the run time on the LightCycler 480 II took approximately 45 minutes. After the runs were run by the LightCycler 480 II , the test data output files were transferred to a computer with the latest version of SCORE 6, a software package specifically designed to interpret the results obtained with Olerup QTYPE 11. SCORE 6 shares a lot of features with the widely-used Helmberg SCORE™ 5 software for Olerup

SSP, making it easy for current SCORE 5 users to adapt to the new SCORE 6. Within seconds of importing the data files, the results of the two test samples had been interpreted and showed concordance with the reference typing at all loci where reference data was available. The ease of use of the Olerup QTYPE 11 product and the SCORE 6 software, combined with the rapid time from DNA sample to final result, were the features of this test that most impressed those attending the product demonstration. The success of the Olerup QTYPE real-time SSP product demonstration at the Hospital Clinic was due in no small part to the support of Miguel and Patricia from our regional distributor Zmway Lab Solutions (www.zmway.com).

Olerup SBT evaluated for high resolution typing in Pakistan Olerup’s parent company, CareDX, recently acquired the Conexio SBT Resolver products and Assign SBT analysis software for high resolution HLA typing from Illumina. These products are now known as Olerup SBT and Assign SBT. While the products’ names have changed, the design and quality of this highvalue diagnostic solution for HLA typing remains at the same standard. The effectiveness of the Olerup SBT HLA typing solution was clear at a recent product demonstration at the National Institute of Blood Disease & Bone Marrow Transplantation (NIBD), an 80 bed hospital in the heart of the city of Karachi. The NIBD has facilitated over 1500 successful bone marrow transplant procedures. The Division of Molecular Medicine and Genomics, headed by Dr. Tahir Shamsi and competently supported by Clinical Scientist Shariq Ahmed, already has extensive experience in HLA typing using PCR-based techniques. The

lab also has considerable experience using sequencing based methods to test for other genetic disorders. They were looking to increase the resolution of their HLA typing by combining their HLA experience with their sequencing experience. Over a period of four days, the lab worked with the Olerup SBT products at all major loci. In collaboration with Olerup’s dedicated SBT application specialist, Shariq and his team were able to optimise the sequencing test procedure in this laboratory, learn about result interpretation using the Assign SBT v471 software and generate results that were 100% concordant with their reference typings. Now the lab has added the Olerup SBT products to their product offering, facilitating higher resolution typing results from their laboratory and ensuring their patients receive the highest quality treatment.

Paul Kyle, Regional Sales Manager at Olerup GmbH, discussing SBT with key lab staff

The success of the Olerup SBT product demonstration at NIBD owes a significant amount to the hard work and expertise of Shah, Wishal and Shoaib from our regional distributor LabServ. (www.labservpakistan.com).
