A comprehensive approach to genomic profiling
The Foundation Medicine comprehensive genomic profiling approach broadly analyses the tumour genome to identify clinically relevant alterations and potentially expand patients’ treatment options.*1–5 Clinicians then receive a clear, in-depth report that supports clinical decision-making by providing insights on the patient’s genomic profile as well as associated targeted therapies, immunotherapies and relevant clinical trials.11
A high-quality portfolio of services
Our high-quality portfolio of services helps optimise and personalise treatment strategies for patients in diverse clinical situations.7–9
Overview of services
Combined commitment
As part of our long-standing commitment to pioneering progress in precision medicine, molecular insights leader Foundation Medicine has become a member of the Roche Group. Together Roche and Foundation Medicine are bringing comprehensive genomic profiling to cancer patients around the world, combining Roche’s expertise and commitment in oncology and Foundation Medicine’s leading technology, validation and experience in cancer profiling.14
*Comprehensive genomic profiling is a tumour testing method that utilises next-generation sequencing technology to identify all four classes of alterations across a large set of cancer-related genes (>50) known to drive cancer across tumour types. Comprehensive genomic profiling is a ‘pan-tumour’ approach, or applicable for use across any type of cancer.
†Clinical validation based on demonstrated concordance with the following companion diagnostics: cobas® EGFR Mutation Test, Ventana ALK (D5F3) CDx Assay, Vysis ALK Break-Apart FISH Probe Kit, therascreen® KRAS RGQ PCR Kit, Dako HER2 FISH PharmDx® Kit, cobas® BRAF V600 Mutation Test, THxID® BRAF kit.
