Com.Pl.it DX® Liquid Biopsy

Com.Pl.it DX® Liquid Biopsy

The Com.Pl.it DX® Liquid test is designed to provide a real time monitoring of tumor’s molecular profile using non-invasive liquid biopsy analysis. The test can be performed before treatment as well as for the patients’ monitoring during therapy. It is also very helpful for the detection of secondary mutations that arise due to targeted therapy and could modify treatment strategy for these patients.

Com.Pl.it DX® Liquid Biopsy is designed for patients with any type of solid tumors and has become a reality in cancer treatment.

This analysis is mostly recommended for:

  • Patients with non-operable tumors and patients with limited or inadequate tissue biopsy material. In these cases liquid biopsy analysis is the only option for tumor molecular profiling.
  • Patients with multiple metastasis. The tests uses genetic material from all tumors in the patient’s body, thus it could catch intra-tumor or inter-metastatic heterogeneity.
  • Patients under treatment or after completion of the therapy. In these cases the analysis can be used for the detection of the presence of tumor derived nucleic acids. Differences in tumor’s molecular profile that could be attributed to the treatment used can also be detected and could be indicative of the treatment’s effectiveness. Additionally, the analysis gives insight in the eventual arise of new targetable mutations or mutation’s resistance to the treatment used.

To perform the Com.Pl.it DX® Liquid biopsy Assay all we need is a small amount of blood which is drawn from the patient like in a routine blood test put in a special Streck™ tube provided by Genekor

The Com.Pl.it DX® Liquid Biopsy test:

  • Determines the molecular profile (gene mutations) of the tumor and of interactions between genes in case of multiple mutations.
  • Designates the on-label drug (if it exists) that targets the mutated gene(s) or the pathway that the gene(s) are involved in.
  • Identifies mutations associated with resistance to targeted treatment.
  • Assigns off-label treatments or ongoing clinical trials based on tumor’s molecular profile.
    This could be particularly important for patients who have failed conventional therapy.

Genekor’s Validation Studies for Com.Pl.it DX® Liquid biopsy Assay

“Our NGS panel applies well for cell free DNA mutation detection in cancer patients. This analysis has a big validity either for mutation detection at the time of diagnosis or for the detection of early molecular relapse following treatment.”
