    Low Limit of Detection Increases Detection and Reporting of Actionable Genomic Alterations (AMP 2024)
    The ability to detect SNVs and indels below 5% VAF increases the diagnostic yield of actionable genomic alterations. This enables additional patients to consider FDA-approved on-label targeted therapies as a treatment option. Taken together, CGP assays that couple high sensitivity and low LOD can maximize identification of therapeutically relevant alterations across solid tumor types.

    Value of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) testing in advanced cancer patients. (PubMed, J Med Econ)
    Limitations include the required simplifications in modeling complex conditions that may not fully reflect evolving real-world testing and treatment patterns. Compared to single-gene testing, results indicate that using NGS test such as OncoExTra identified more actionable alterations, leading to improved outcomes and reduced costs.
