Presented By: Gabe Rudy, VP of Product and Engineering

Precision medicine for cancer is rapidly accelerating because of the development and approval of targeted molecular therapies. These therapies require new genomic biomarkers as an indication for use, and require evaluating additional mutation types that are available in comprehensive genomic profiling assays as well as the small variants detected by Next-Generation Sequencing gene panels.

We are excited to announce VarSeq 2.3.0 which will update the VSClinical AMP workflow to meet the growing needs of labs conducting comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) of tumors. This includes built-in support for the Illumina TruSight Oncology 500 (TSO-500) kit as well as similar kits from other vendors. The VSClinical AMP workflow has also gained native support for the bioinformatic outputs of CGP kits. Join us to learn about comprehensive genomic profiling in cancer, specifically:

  • Evaluation and clinical reporting of genomic signatures such as Microsatellite (MSI), Tumor mutation burden (TMB), PD-L1, Homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) statuses, and more.
  • Built-in TSO-500 import and expandable import capabilities for new genomic data types through the new advanced workflow scripting system.
  • Golden Helix CancerKB updates with report-ready genomic-signature interpretations written for approved therapies as well as gene interpretations for all 500 genes of the TSO-500 panel. In addition, CancerKB scopes have been extended to reference multiple relevant biomarkers in a single interpretation, capture approved therapies at the tumor type level, and include interpretations for clinically relevant negative findings.
  • Expanded clinical trial support to include international trials and the ability to search within proximity of European postal codes. VSClinical is accessing all active studies in AACT/ClinicalTrials.gov wherein users can search and select trials based on relevant drugs, biomarkers, and the geographic distance to the patient or testing site.

    • VarSeq 2.3.0 will deliver powerful capabilities for genomic profiling in cancer, enabling a new level of personalized and effective care for your patients. We look forward to demonstrating these updates and Golden Helix’s continued innovation making the VarSeq Clinical Suite the NGS analysis platform of choice for germline and cancer testing.
