ONCOTARGET: Comprehensive Genomic Profiling Panel for Cancer Detection
ONCOTARGET is a comprehensive genomic profiling panel designed for cancer detection. It consists of 1,229 probes targeting 10 oncogenes and the TP53 gene. Clinicians can use this kit to guide treatment decisions based on genotyping results from various sample types, including fresh or frozen tumors, FFPE tissues, and liquid samples. The panel’s cost-effectiveness and accuracy make it a valuable tool in oncology research and patient care.
The ONCOTARGET Genomic Profiling Panel
The ONCOTARGET Panel is a combination of 1229 different probes, spread across the coding sequences of 10 Oncogenes of interest, linked to a marketing authorization for Oncotherapy, as well as the TP53 gene (see table).
The ONCOTARGET kit has been developed to provide a rapid, reliable response from all types of human samples, to help practitioners guide the treatment of cancer patients. It can be used on DNA extracted from fresh or frozen tumors, fixed and embedded in paraffin (FFPE), and also on DNA from liquid samples (plasma samples, pleural fluids, cerebrospinal fluids). It can also be used on DNA extracted from human cell lines. Its small size and low sequencing depth (> 80X) enable low-cost analysis.
The ONCOTARGET panel can be used to detect mutations present on all the coding parts of 10 genes used to guide 1st or 2nd line metastatic therapy for several solid cancers, as well as the TP53 gene.
To achieve this, the ONCOTARGET panel analyzes the entire coding sequence (coding exons + splicing zones) of 11 genes of interest (ALK, BRAF, EGFR, ERBB2 (HER2), KIT, KRAS, MAP2K1, MET, NRAS, PDGFRA, TP53) for the study of solid lung tumors (non-small cell), colorectal tumors, melanoma and gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST). It can also be used to detect intronic mutations around MET exon 14 that involve constitutive MET activation. (see table)
