The number of molecular biomarkers relevant for precision oncology research is rapidly growing across solid tumor types and in many cases single gene testing methods do not yield desired results in time or for limited number of biomarkers only.
Therefore, NGS has become a technology of choice in precision oncology research for genomic profiling of FFPE tissue or liquid biopsy tumor samples*.
The Oncomine Precision Assay is part of an end-to-end solution with a workflow consisting of only two instruments run by one intuitive software interface and also includes a complete bioinformatics pipeline and reporting solution. This means you do not need additional expert resources in your lab and will only have to introduce a small number of new SOPs.
The whole workflow is automated with only two touch points and as little as 20 minutes of hands on time. This means you will not need much additional technicians’ time.
Everything from instruments, software, reagents and consumables, as well as service and ongoing support, comes from one supplier: Thermo Fisher Scientific, which aims to make your implementation, as well as day-to-day running of this workflow, as simple as possible.
Read a short interview with one of the users, Dr. Lara Navarro, Head Biologist in the Anatomical Pathology Department of the General University Hospital of Valencia, Spain, who shares her experience with this solution, saying they “didn’t think it was possible to implement NGS in their lab and realized that this workflow is one of the simplest they have here in the laboratory”.
The Oncomine Precision Assay delivers results in as little as 24 hours, which will enable you to report those samples faster than ever before and combine NGS results with other technologies results, like PDL1 by IHC, in one complete relevant biomarker report.
The required sample input is only 10 ng of DNA or RNA, meaning you can analyze and deliver a report even on small samples, including fine needle aspirates (FNA).

Note: Testing was performed at multiple internal R&D laboratories as part of product verification testing. Samples were run at different plexy levels. Additional verification and validation testing will be performed using the Oncomine Precision Assay and FFPE controls; therefore final performance values can change.

With the Oncomine Precision Assay you can do that without introducing a new assay and workflow in your lab. It will enable you to analyze the same biomarkers from liquid and FFPE tissue biopsy samples.
The Oncomine Precision Assay on the Genexus System is a next-generation solution for genomic profiling that’s accessible for laboratories of all sizes. Now labs can employ a hands-off workflow to detect key biomarkers such as EGFR, ALK, BRAF, ROS1, NTRK, RET, or ERBB2 from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue or liquid biopsy specimens in one day.
