Relevance of Synthetic WES tumour-normal SNVs (López-Cade et al. 2025 Table 1) to "Select a tumour DNA somatic variant-calling workflow"
- Use case
- Select a tumour DNA somatic variant-calling workflow
- Assessed by
- Synthetic WES tumour-normal pair, 4,709 inserted COSMIC SNVs (López-Cade et al. 2025 Table 1)
- Relevance
- Proxy evidence
- Endpoint
- Recall and precision of Mutect2, Strelka2 and FreeBayes PASS SNV calls on a BAMSurgeon synthetic WES tumour-normal pair
Proxy, not direct: the inputs and endpoint match the use case (tumour-normal WES, per-caller precision and recall), but the tumour is synthetic, with SNVs inserted into otherwise clean reads, so precision is near 1 by construction and recall mostly reflects default filtering of inserted low-VAF variants.

- Recall and precision of Mutect2, Strelka2 and FreeBayes PASS SNV calls on a BAMSurgeon synthetic WES tumour-normal pair
- rationale
- Proxy, not direct: the inputs and endpoint match the use case (tumour-normal WES, per-caller precision and recall), but the tumour is synthetic, with SNVs inserted into otherwise clean reads, so precision is near 1 by construction and recall mostly reflects default filtering of inserted low-VAF variants.
- constraints
- Inspect every linked evaluation's source locator before citing a result.; Do not combine this mapping's evaluations with any other protocol's results; truth sets, specimens, sequencing and caller versions differ between sources.
- limitations
- One synthetic WES pair; BAMSurgeon inserts SNVs into real reads but does not model tumour artefacts, so almost no false positives are expected (Discussion).; SNVs only; indels not evaluated.; Callers run with nf-core/sarek 3.5.0 defaults and no tuning; no custom panel of normals was specified, and sarek's default GATK GRCh38 panel of normals was applied to Mutect2 (Discussion).; Mutect2 is reported as 'version 2.2', which is not a GATK release number; the GATK version is not stated.; FreeBayes row is internally inconsistent: TP 1,908 plus FN 2,314 is 4,222, not the 4,709 printed as Total Truth, and the printed recall 0.4519 equals 1,908/4,222, whereas 1,908/4,709 is 0.4052. Mutect2 and Strelka2 rows sum to 4,709. The source does not say which value is wrong.; Authors are from the clinical group that generated the patient samples; they did not develop the callers.
