Table 3. Validation Criteria for Endometrial Carcinoma Data.

Normal VAF Tumor VAF
0% <8% ≥8%, <20% ≥20%
 = 0% Not Validated Somatic Low Somatic Med Somatic High
<3% Not Validated Ambiguous Somatic Med Somatic High
≥3% Germline/LOH Germline/LOH Germline/LOH Germline/LOH

Validation BAMs were used to determine the validation status for somatic mutations as shown here. A mutation is considered validated in the Somatic Low, Med, or High groups (bold), not validated in the “Not Validated” (italics) and Germline/LOH groups (italics), and Ambiguous when there was low read depth (<10 reads) or low VAFs in both the normal (<3%) and tumor (<8%) validation BAMs.
