Comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) is a method of testing tumors that uses next-generation sequencing (NGS) to detect the four main classes of alterations known to drive cancer growth: base substitutions, insertions and deletions, copy number alterations (CNAs), and rearrangements or fusions. This testing can be performed on multiple specimen types including FFPE tissue, peripheral whole blood, bone marrow aspirate or extracted nucleic acid. CGP helps you better predict response or resistance to targeted- and immuno- therapies for more advanced cancer patients as compared to traditional molecular testing. How is comprehensive genomic profiling different from single-gene or “hot spot” testing? Single biomarker testing identifies alterations that are confined to a single gene, potentially missing clinically relevant mutations in additional genes. Gene hotspot testing may test multiple genes at a time but is confined to commonly altered regions within those genes, resulting in potentially missing other clinically relevant classes of alterations. Comprehensive genomic profiling detects the four main classes of genomic alterations across a broader panel of genes, oftentimes hundreds. Which genes are tested? Foundation Medicine tests look at more than 300 cancer-related genes: FoundationOne CDx (324 DNA genes interrogated from a tissue sample) FoundationOne Liquid CDx (324 DNA genes* interrogated from a simple blood draw) FoundationOne Heme (406 DNA and 265 RNA genes interrogated from a variety of sample options) Explore our gene coverage by test *FoundationOne Liquid CDx is FDA-approved to report substitutions and indels in 311 genes, including rearrangements and copy number losses only in ALK and BRCA1/2 and copy number alterations in BRCA1/2 and ERBB2 (HER2). Comprehensive results across all 324 genes are reported as a laboratory professional service which is not reviewed or approved by the FDA. How do I order a Foundation Medicine test?
