I. Germline Cancer Panels: Hereditary Cancer Risk Assessments
Our germline cancer panels are specifically designed for individuals with a family history of cancer or other genetic predispositions. These tests provide critical insights into inherited cancer risks, allowing patients to take proactive steps toward prevention and early detection.
- Cancer Predict (57 Genes)
This focused panel screens for mutations across 57 genes linked to various hereditary cancers, providing essential information on genetic risks. - Cancer Predict Expanded (148 Genes)
A more extensive panel, analyzing 148 genes to give a comprehensive view of hereditary cancer risk. Ideal for cases requiring an expanded genetic investigation.
II. Somatic Cancer Panels: Actionable Insights for Tumor Profiling
A. Organ-Specific Panels
Our organ-specific somatic panels provide detailed mutation profiles for various cancer types, directly informing precision treatment strategies.
- Sapiens Lung: Lung Cancer Panel
Utilizing a 17-gene RNA sequencing analysis, this panel detects fusion genes and partial sequence variants, providing insights essential for lung cancer therapies. - Sapiens Sarcoma: Sarcoma Panel
This 63-gene RNA sequencing panel, specialized for sarcomas, reveals important fusions and sequence variants, enabling accurate diagnosis and treatment planning. - Sapiens Colon: Colon Cancer Panel
Combining a 67-gene DNA sequencing analysis with MSI (microsatellite instability) testing, this panel provides crucial genetic details for colorectal cancer treatment options.
B. Pan-Cancer Panels
Our pan-cancer panels offer broad-spectrum tumor profiling across multiple cancer types. These comprehensive panels are ideal for cases requiring an extensive overview of tumor mutations, with additional analyses available for deeper insights.
- Sapiens Pan-Cancer Focus Panels
Designed for compact, in-depth somatic analysis, these panels range from 20 to 523 genes, with options for MSI, TMB (tumor mutational burden), and HRR (homologous recombination repair) testing. Key options include:- 20- and 25-gene DNA analysis with MSI testing for foundational genetic profiling.
- 36-gene RNA analysis to detect fusion genes and sequence variations.
- 76-gene panel with BRCA1/2 and HRR genes, ideal for cases requiring homologous recombination repair insights.
- 523-gene panel with MSI, TMB analysis, and optional MYRIAD-HRD scoring for comprehensive tumor profiling.
- Sapiens Liquid Biopsy Panels
For situations where traditional biopsies are not possible, our liquid biopsy panels analyze circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) from blood samples. Options include:- EGFR ctDNA sequencing for lung cancer.
- 28- and 146-gene ctDNA panels for broader mutation profiles, with fusion analysis in the 146-gene panel.
- 523-gene ctDNA panel offering extensive somatic analysis with MSI, TMB, and a 23-gene fusion capacity, ideal for high-detail tumor profiling.
