Whole Exome and Whole Transcriptome Sequencing from Blood
Caris Assure analyzes all 22,000 genes at the DNA and RNA level using whole exome and whole transcriptome sequencing, providing the most robust and accurate assessment of the key molecular features of a patient’s cancer. This comprehensive approach identifies all pan-cancer biomarkers, including a wide range of variant types and genomic signatures. This powerful assay includes characterization of somatic tumor alterations, somatic CHIP alterations and identification of incidental germline findings. The assay further enables minimally invasive serial monitoring for detection of tumor heterogeneity and emergence of resistance mutations. The assay is intended for patients with previously diagnosed solid tumors.
Accurate, Actionable Results for More Patients
Circulating Nucleic Acids Sequencing (cNAS) is a novel liquid biopsy molecular profiling approach that analyzes circulating cell-free DNA and RNA (cfDNA, cfRNA) plus genomic DNA and RNA (gDNA, gRNA) from circulating white blood cells. DNA-only molecular profiling assays often do not provide enough nucleic acid material for sequencing due to low- or non-shedding tumors. With more information-rich nucleic acids to analyze, Caris’ novel cNAS assay addresses the non-shedding issue, generating an actionable result for more patients while improving sensitivity and specificity.Looking for a Specific Gene?
