Case Study: Non Profit Research Institute and Ingenuity Variant Analysis for Ion Reporter

Introduction

This case study of a non-profit is based on a April 2014 survey of Ingenuity Variant Analysis plugin for Ion Reporter customers by TechValidate, a 3rd-party research service. The profiled organization asked to have their name blinded to protect their confidentiality.

“We can simply output the annotated variant list with AA, Nuc, MAF etc making it easy to get to your variants of interest without any expertise needed.”

Challenges

  • Tried the Ingenuity Variant Analysis plugin for Ion Reporter because of easy to access within Ion Reporter.
  • Addresses the following challenges in Ion Reporter:
    • additional annotation

Use Case

  • Has 2-5 people in their lab using the Ingenuity Variant Analysis Plugin for Ion Reporter.
  • Is using for Gene Panel sample types.

Results

  • Achieved the following with the Ingenuity Variant Analysis plugin for Ion Reporter:
    • Helped reduce time to generate a short list of interesting variants
    • Increased efficiency and team productivity
  • Received the following scientific benefits:
    • Performed causal network analysis to identify relevant variants in genes
    • Quickly identified new findings
  • The following differentiates from competitive products:
    • Speed of access to application
    • Flexibility
    • Ability to customize analysis

Case Study: Semmelweis University

Introduction

This case study of Semmelweis University is based on a July 2013 survey of Ingenuity IPA customers by TechValidate, a 3rd-party research service.

“[IPA provides] complex, integrated analysis, pathway analysis, and super visualization.”

Challenges

  • Solved the following challenges since deploying IPA for RNA sequencing analysis:
    • Improved understanding of the structure of different isoforms
    • Improved precise measurement of transcripts
    • Can now distinguish different isoforms
    • Can more clearly identify biologically relevant isoforms
  • Purchased IPA for RNA sequencing analysis for the following reasons:
    • Interpret the impact of expression changes in the context of biological processes, disease and cellular phenotypes, and molecular interactions

Use Case

  • Uses the following species in their RNA seq analysis:
    • Humans
  • Uses the following upstream analysis packages to generate RNA-Seq expression values:
    • CLC bio

Results

  • Purchased IPA for RNA seq analysis over the following competitors:
    • In-house developed software
    • CLC Genomic Workbench
  • Rates the following IPA capabilities compared to the competition:
    • Faster time to insights: differentiated
    • Ease of use: differentiated
