First Japanese institution to utilize SOPHiA GENETICS’ Myeloid Plus Solution (SOPHiA GENETICS Press Release)
"SOPHiA GENETICS...announced an agreement with Hiroshima University...in Hiroshima City, Japan, to support their molecular profiling by next-generation sequencing (NGS) in investigating the pathogenic variants causing different blood cancer disorders...With NGS for myeloid testing not widely available in Japan, a group of Hiroshima University researchers tapped the SOPHiA DDM Platform to assist with the clinical utility of NGS tests for myeloid malignancies. Hiroshima University aimed to establish a framework where the NGS-based testing would become a routine part of clinical diagnosis for myeloid neoplasms."
