Key Benefits of CGP

Detect Multiple Biomarkers in a Single Assay —
CGP can detect all genomic variant classes such as:
 


Single Nucleotide Variants (SNVs)


InDels


Copy Number Variants (CNVs)


Gene Fusions


Splice Variants

 
Additionally, CGP can detect complex genomic signatures:

TMB

Tumor Mutational Burden

MSI

Microsatellite Instability

HRD

Homologous Recombination Deficiency

An introduction to Homologous Recombination Deficiency Assessment

Current patient care relies on multiple biomarker testing, with often limited sample material. Comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) is a NGS approach that identifies genomic alterations across hundreds of clinically relevant cancer biomarkers in a single assay and has the potential to replace the need to run multiple independent tests, including an HRD only test.

HRD status may reflect tumors positive for BRCA status and/or with a high GIS but does not address genomic variants beyond these factors. In these cases, CGP has the potential to identify biomarkers that may match patients with approved therapies or open clinical trials. HRD assessment and CGP together may decrease lab costs and time to answer, potentially improving patient outcomes.

Scientist with blood sample.

CGP can detect actionable and emerging biomarkers to help identify more effective therapeutic and clinical trial options. Liquid biopsy CGP can be used as an alternative in the case that tissue is not available. Additionally, CGP from tissue and liquid biopsy samples together may reveal more insights into the alterations driving tumor growth and progression.6,7
