Table 1.

Correlation and predictive measures for our sequencing assay, assuming ddPCR results as the gold standard.

Del Ex 19 (%) L858R (%) T790M (%) All ddPCR (%)
Sensitivity (PPA) 97.1 100.0 100.0 98.5
Specificity (NPA) 98.6 99.4 98.6 98.9
PPV 94.4 93.3 85.0 91.5
NPV 99.3 100.0 100.0 99.8
Concordance 98.4 99.4 98.7 98.8

Sensitivity and specificity of sequencing versus ddPCR are also shown in Fig. 6. A majority of discordant calls are supported by tissue, making the true sequencing specificity and PPV higher than the reported values vs. ddPCR.
