"Pillar Biosciences...today announced an expansion of their existing partnership with Illumina, through which a broader portfolio of Pillar's oncoReveal™ NGS panels will now be offered directly by Illumina. Several of Pillar's oncology panels will be available as part of the validated libraries on the MiSeq i100 Series sequencing platform, which launched last week."

"Pillar Biosciences, Inc. has entered into a strategic partnership with AstraZeneca to expand laboratory access to molecular testing, using rapid, Next Generation Sequencing (NGS)-based liquid biopsy tumor profiling panels for detection of genetic cancer variants, with an initial focus on European markets and the UK...The partnership aims to rapidly identify tumors with clinically actionable genomic alterations via liquid biopsy profiling and intends to support faster diagnostic testing by increasing the local availability of plasma-based tumor profiling at leading clinical laboratories....The work will initially leverage Pillar Biosciences oncoReveal Core LBx, Essential LBx, and Fusion LBx research-use-only (RUO) liquid biopsy kitted NGS panels."
