consHLA: a next generation sequencing consensus-based HLA typing workflow

To leverage cancer patient germline and tumour WGS and tumour RNA-seq data we developed an automated workflow, consHLA, that produces consensus typing of HLA genes in a clinically relevant timeframe. This workflow provides higher resolution patient HLA-typing than current gold standard approaches, identifies HLA alterations arising in patient tumours and generates clear, simple reports.

Abstract

To leverage cancer patient germline and tumour WGS and tumour RNA-seq data we developed an automated workflow, consHLA, that produces consensus typing of HLA genes in a clinically relevant timeframe. This workflow provides higher resolution patient HLA-typing than current gold standard approaches, identifies HLA alterations arising in patient tumours and generates clear, simple reports.
