Version Compatibility

Reference examples tested with: BWA 0.7.17+, VarDict 1.8+, fgbio 2.1+, ichorCNA 0.6.0+, FinaleToolkit 0.7+, MethylDackel 0.6+, numpy 1.26+, pandas 2.2+, pysam 0.22+, samtools 1.19+

Before using code patterns, verify installed versions match. If versions differ:

  • Python: pip show <package> then help(module.function) to check signatures
  • R: packageVersion('<pkg>') then ?function_name to verify parameters
  • CLI: <tool> --version then <tool> --help to confirm flags

If code throws ImportError, AttributeError, or TypeError, introspect the installed package and adapt the example to match the actual API rather than retrying.

Step 0: Pre-Analytical QC

def check_preanalytical_quality(sample_metadata):
    '''
    Pre-analytical factors critical for cfDNA quality.

    Requirements:
    - Streck tube: up to 7 days at room temperature
    - EDTA tube: process within 6 hours
    - Avoid hemolysis
    - Store extracted DNA at -80C
    '''
    issues = []

    if sample_metadata['tube_type'] == 'EDTA':
        if sample_metadata['processing_delay_hours'] > 6:
            issues.append('EDTA tube processed > 6 hours - risk of gDNA contamination')

    if sample_metadata['hemolysis_score'] > 1:
        issues.append('Hemolysis detected - expect cellular DNA contamination')

    return issues

Step 1: cfDNA Preprocessing with UMI Consensus

# For UMI-tagged libraries (targeted panels)
# fgbio pipeline

# Extract UMIs. Read-structure is library-specific; see liquid-biopsy/cfdna-preprocessing.
fgbio ExtractUmisFromBam \
    --input raw.bam \
    --output with_umis.bam \
    --read-structure 3M2S+T 3M2S+T \
    --single-tag RX

# Align
bwa mem -t 8 -Y reference.fa with_umis.bam | \
    samtools view -bS - > aligned.bam

# Group by UMI
fgbio GroupReadsByUmi \
    --input aligned.bam \
    --output grouped.bam \
    --strategy adjacency \
    --edits 1

# Consensus calling: keep the caller permissive (fgbio #1009), apply strictness at the filter
fgbio CallMolecularConsensusReads \
    --input grouped.bam \
    --output consensus.bam \
    --min-reads 1

# Filter: this is the real quality gate
fgbio FilterConsensusReads \
    --input consensus.bam \
    --output final.bam \
    --ref reference.fa \
    --min-reads 2

Step 2: Fragment QC Checkpoint

import pysam
import numpy as np

def verify_cfdna_quality(bam_path):
    '''
    QC Checkpoint: Verify cfDNA fragment profile.
    Expected: peak at ~167bp (mononucleosome)
    '''
    bam = pysam.AlignmentFile(bam_path, 'rb')
    sizes = []

    for read in bam.fetch():
        if read.is_proper_pair and not read.is_secondary and read.template_length > 0:
            sizes.append(read.template_length)

    bam.close()
    sizes = np.array(sizes)

    modal_size = np.bincount(sizes[:400]).argmax()
    mono_frac = np.sum((sizes >= 150) & (sizes <= 180)) / len(sizes)

    qc_pass = 150 <= modal_size <= 180 and mono_frac > 0.3

    return {
        'modal_size': modal_size,
        'mononucleosome_fraction': mono_frac,
        'qc_pass': qc_pass,
        'message': 'Good cfDNA profile' if qc_pass else 'Atypical fragment distribution'
    }

Step 3a: Tumor Fraction Estimation (sWGS)

ichorCNA is a command-line script (Rscript scripts/runIchorCNA.R), NOT an importable runIchorCNA() function, and it is preceded by HMMcopy readCounter to bin the BAM. The ~3% tumor-fraction floor is an analytical limit of detection; below it, route to fragmentomics or methylation rather than trusting a low value (see liquid-biopsy/analytical-validation and liquid-biopsy/tumor-fraction-estimation).

# For shallow WGS data (0.1-1x coverage); GavinHaLab fork
readCounter --window 1000000 --quality 20 \
    --chromosome "chr1,chr2,chr3,chr4,chr5,chr6,chr7,chr8,chr9,chr10,chr11,chr12,chr13,chr14,chr15,chr16,chr17,chr18,chr19,chr20,chr21,chr22,chrX" \
    sample.bam > sample.wig

Rscript scripts/runIchorCNA.R \
    --id sample_id --WIG sample.wig \
    --gcWig gc_hg38_1000kb.wig --mapWig map_hg38_1000kb.wig \
    --centromere GRCh38.GCA_000001405.2_centromere_acen.txt \
    --normalPanel HD_ULP_PoN_1Mb_median.rds \
    --normal "c(0.5,0.6,0.7,0.8,0.9)" --ploidy "c(2,3)" --maxCN 7 \
    --estimateNormal TRUE --estimatePloidy TRUE --estimateScPrevalence TRUE \
    --outDir ichor_results/
# Tumor fraction = 1 - n in sample_id.params.txt

Step 3b: Mutation Detection (Targeted Panel)

# For deep targeted sequencing
# Use UMI-consensus BAM from Step 1

vardict-java \
    -G reference.fa \
    -f 0.005 \
    -N sample_id \
    -b consensus.bam \
    -c 1 -S 2 -E 3 -g 4 \
    panel.bed | \
teststrandbias.R | \
var2vcf_valid.pl \
    -N sample_id \
    -E \
    -f 0.005 \
    > sample.vcf

Step 4: CHIP Filtering

Clonal hematopoiesis (CHIP) is the dominant false-positive source in plasma: ~81.6% of cfDNA variants in controls and ~53.2% in cancer patients trace to white blood cells (Razavi 2019 Nat Med 25:1928). A gene-list filter is a weak fallback; the definitive control is sequencing matched buffy-coat/WBC DNA and subtracting any variant present there. See liquid-biopsy/ctdna-mutation-detection.

CHIP_GENES = ['DNMT3A', 'TET2', 'ASXL1', 'PPM1D', 'JAK2', 'SF3B1', 'SRSF2', 'TP53']

def filter_chip(variants_df, wbc_variants=None, chip_genes=CHIP_GENES):
    '''Subtract WBC-matched variants when available; else fall back to a CHIP gene list.'''
    if wbc_variants is not None:
        wbc_keys = set(zip(wbc_variants['chrom'], wbc_variants['pos'], wbc_variants['alt']))
        in_wbc = variants_df.apply(lambda r: (r['chrom'], r['pos'], r['alt']) in wbc_keys, axis=1)
        return variants_df[~in_wbc], variants_df[in_wbc]

    chip = variants_df[variants_df['gene'].isin(chip_genes)]
    somatic = variants_df[~variants_df['gene'].isin(chip_genes)]
    return somatic, chip

Step 5: Fragmentomics Analysis (Optional)

FinaleToolkit (MIT license, not DELFI software) exposes real hyphenated CLI subcommands and an underscored finaletoolkit.frag Python API; delfi GC-corrects the short/long ratio (raw ratios are dominated by GC and sequencing batch). DELFI is a methodology and a company, not a pip install-able tool.

# GC-corrected genome-wide DELFI profile and end-motif diversity.
# delfi positionals: input chrom_sizes reference bins_file; GC correction is on by default; -R for non-hg19.
finaletoolkit delfi consensus.bam hg38.chrom.sizes hg38.fa bins_100kb.bed -g gaps.bed -R -o sample.delfi.bed
finaletoolkit end-motifs consensus.bam hg38.fa -o sample.end_motifs.tsv
finaletoolkit mds sample.end_motifs.tsv
from finaletoolkit.frag import delfi  # see liquid-biopsy/fragment-analysis

def run_fragmentomics(bam_path, chrom_sizes, reference, bins_bed, gap_bed):
    '''GC-corrected DELFI short/long profile (MDS comes from end_motifs().motif_diversity_score()).
    Python positional order is (input, chrom_sizes, bins_file, reference_file) - note this differs
    from the CLI order (input, chrom_sizes, reference, bins), so pass by keyword to be safe.'''
    return delfi(bam_path, chrom_sizes=chrom_sizes, bins_file=bins_bed,
                 reference_file=reference, gap_file=gap_bed)

Step 6: Longitudinal Tracking

import pandas as pd
import numpy as np

def track_longitudinal(samples_df):
    '''
    Track ctDNA over treatment.

    samples_df columns: [sample_id, timepoint, tumor_fraction, mutations...]
    '''
    samples_df = samples_df.sort_values('timepoint')

    baseline = samples_df.iloc[0]['tumor_fraction']
    samples_df['log2_fc'] = np.log2(samples_df['tumor_fraction'] / baseline)

    nadir = samples_df['tumor_fraction'].min()

    response = 'unknown'
    if nadir < 0.001:
        response = 'Complete molecular response'
    elif nadir < baseline * 0.01:
        response = 'Major molecular response (>2 log)'
    elif nadir < baseline * 0.5:
        response = 'Partial molecular response'

    return samples_df, response

Complete Pipeline Script

def run_liquid_biopsy_pipeline(sample_config):
    '''
    Complete liquid biopsy analysis pipeline.

    sample_config: dict with keys:
        - bam_file: Input BAM
        - data_type: 'swgs' or 'panel'
        - reference: Reference FASTA
        - bed_file: Panel BED (for panel data)
        - output_dir: Output directory
    '''
    results = {}

    # Step 1: Preprocess (if UMI data)
    if sample_config.get('has_umis'):
        preprocessed_bam = preprocess_with_fgbio(sample_config['bam_file'])
    else:
        preprocessed_bam = sample_config['bam_file']

    # Step 2: Fragment QC
    frag_qc = verify_cfdna_quality(preprocessed_bam)
    if not frag_qc['qc_pass']:
        print(f"WARNING: {frag_qc['message']}")
    results['fragment_qc'] = frag_qc

    # Step 3: Analysis based on data type
    if sample_config['data_type'] == 'swgs':
        # Tumor fraction estimation
        results['tumor_fraction'] = run_ichorcna(preprocessed_bam)
    elif sample_config['data_type'] == 'panel':
        # Mutation detection
        variants = call_variants(preprocessed_bam, sample_config['bed_file'])
        somatic, chip = filter_chip(variants)
        results['variants'] = somatic
        results['chip_variants'] = chip

    # Step 4: Optional fragmentomics
    if sample_config.get('run_fragmentomics'):
        results['fragmentomics'] = run_fragmentomics(preprocessed_bam)

    return results
