Evidence
The Oncomine™ Lung cfDNA Assay is part of a complete research solution to detect lung tumor-derived DNA (ctDNA) in cfDNA. It provides the reagents for library construction and a single pool of multiplex PCR primers for preparation of amplicon libraries from cell-free DNA (cfDNA) obtained from the plasma fraction of a single tube of whole blood. The assay enables researchers to analyze single nucleotide variants and short indels that are frequently mutated in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Eleven genes and >150 hotspots are covered (Genes: ALK, BRAF, EGFR, ERBB2, KRAS, MAP2K1, MET, NRAS, PIK3CA, ROS1, and TP53). Through the use of proprietary sequencing technology, a limit of detection (LOD) down to 0.1% can be achieved.
