FHIR Genomics

Submitting WG/Project/Implementer Group

Justification

Genomic data are of increasing importance to clinical care and secondary analysis. Please see this recent JAMIA article for a primer on some of the work to date on bringing genomic data definitions into the FHIR specification. FHIR Genomics consists of the Sequence resource and several profiles built on top of existing FHIR resources (DiagnosticReport-genetics profile, DiagnosticOrder-genetics profile, Observation-genetics profile). The Sequence resource is a core resource in FHIR Genomics. It is used to represent complex genetics data. FHIR Genomics focuses on clinical genetics data reporting.

Gil Alterovitz, David Kreda, Heming Yao, Bob Milius, Joey Yang, David Hay, Jeremy Warner, Fei Wang, Larry Babb

Roles

FHIR Client

Support the sending of the Sequence resource/genetics profiles operations: create, history, read, search and update.

FHIR Server

Support the receiving and processing of the Sequence resource/genetics profiles operations: create, history, read, search and update.

Scenarios

Scenarios 2-6 are taken from use cases in the [HL7 Domain Analysis Model (DAM): Clinical Genomics, Release 1, September 2014 Informative Ballot]. See links below each scenario for relevant DAM excerpts.

Scenario 1 Register a New Sequence and Observation

Action: (FHIR Client) Create a sequence instance and a observation instance to represent genetics data and interpretations (DNA variant, RNA sequence, structural variant, etc).
Precondition: This sequence instance and observation instance do not exist in service prior to action.
Success Criteria: Sequence and observation instances created correctly on server and in the desired format.
Bonus point: New profiles can be built on top of the Sequence resource for complex representation

Example for genetics data representation:

It should be noted that the variantID is not unique per allele observed. Here are three examples for c.181T>G, c.181T>A and n.342T>G on BRCA1 where c.181T>G is equivalent with n.342T>G and different with c.181T>A.

Scenario 2 Clinical Sequencing - Germline Testing

More on Scenario 2

Action: (FHIR Client) Search target observation with patient ID and value for source ("germline")
Precondition: Relevant patient and observations have been created
Success Criteria: A bundle of genetics observations from germline analysis of that patient are returned.
Bonus point: More parameters can be added for searching

Example for corresponding API call and search results

Scenario 3 Family Member History

More on Scenario 3

Action: (FHIR Client) Get the genetics diagnostic reports of patient's family members.
Precondition: Relevant diagnostic reports have been created
Success Criteria: The genetics diagnostic reports of patient's family members are returned
Bonus point: More parameters can be added for searching

Example for corresponding API call and search results

Scenario 4 Clinical and Research Data Warehouses

More on Scenario 4

Action: (FHIR Client) Get all genetic-profile-based observations of patients with the variant c.181T>G
Precondition: Relevant observations have been created
Success Criteria: A bundle of genetics observations, whose extesion 'sequence' referring to sequence instance of variant c.181T>G, are returned.
Bonus point: More parameters can be added for searching

Example for corresponding API call and search results

Scenario 5 HLA Typing

More on Scenario 5

Action: (FHIR Client) Create an HLA genotyping genetics report
Precondition: This DiagnosticReport-hlaresults instance does not exist in service prior to action.
Success Criteria: The HLA genetics report is created correctly on server and in the desired format.
Bonus point: Extensions can be added

Example codes for HLA report

Scenario 6 Specimen Identification

More on Scenario 6

Action: (FHIR Client) Represent the specimen of origin, i.e. microorganism and/or tumor. Search for sequences from microorganism or tumor.
Precondition: Specimen has been created.
Success Criteria: A bundle of sequences from microorganism or tumor are returned.

Scenario 7 Comprehensive Pathology Report

A comprehensive pathology report integrates pertinent information gathered from various methods (e.g. morphology, immunohistochemistry, flow cytometry, cytogenetics, fluorescence in situ hybridization [FISH], and molecular testing [e.g., NGS]). The DiagnosticReport-genetics profile has the capability to support results with simple or complex genetics observations.

Action: (FHIR Client) Create a comprehensive pathology report which includes genetic information for a patient.
Precondition: This diagnostic report has never been created
Success Criteria: Sequence created correctly on server and in the desired format.
Bonus point: Extensions can be added.

Example for comprehensive report and Example codes for comprehensive report

Scenario 8 Sequence quality

In the sequencing reads, each base is assigned with a quality score generated by the sequencer, which represents the confidence of a base call. Base quality is a critical factor for accurate variant detection in the downstream analysis.

Action: (FHIR Client) Get the quality of the sequence under consideration.
Precondition: This sequence instance has been created
Success Criteria: Target sequence instance is returned.
Bonus point: More parameters can be added for searching

Example for corresponding API call and search results
