Tumor Marker Testing Excellence

Quicker, Smarter & Better test for treatment decision

What is TumorTrack Advance?

TumorTrack Advance is a next generation sequencing (NGS) assay consisting of DNA and RNA based testing which detects single nucleotide variants (SNVs), insertion-deletion mutations (InDels), copy number variants (CNVs), fusions, tumor mutation burden (TMB), microsatellite instability (MSI) and PD-L1 expression in multiple solid tumors.

Prevalence

cancer marker test
  • According to ICMR report the number of Indians suffering from cancer is projected to increase to 29.8 million in 2025 from 26.7 million in 2021
  • Males are at 9.81% risk to develop cancer before the age of 75 and females at 9.42%
  • The most common types of cancer in males include lip, oral cavity, lung, stomach, colorectal, and esophagus, while in females it includes breast, lip, oral cavity, cervix, lung, and gastric cancers (in descending order)

Why you need the test?

Single holistic test for the diagnosis, prognosis and to determine treatment options (Targeted Therapy & Immunotherapy)

Why MedGenome?

  • Strict quality control measures at different stages of sample processing, data acquisition and analysis adhering to international clinical laboratory practice guidelines such as CAP, thus ensuring highly precise and accurate results
  • High throughput NGS data analysis, curation, and interpretation of the mutations and fusions are performed by well-trained clinical scientists/genome analysts and cancer genome experts
  • The report provides –
    → Clinically significant alterations and its interpretations
    → Their associations with drug efficacy
    → Recommended targeted therapies/possible mechanisms of resistance
    → Prognosis and available active clinical trials
  • Supporting medical evidence from large clinical studies that guide oncologists in making treatment decisions during the complete course of cancer management that includes diagnosis, targeted therapy, surveillance and relapse
  • Clinical reporting and interpretations are based on international guidelines such as ASCO, AMP, CAP, NCCN, and ESMO
  • The test is validated in-house and the mean sequencing depth of the panel is >/= 250x on 100+ clinical samples, reference standards, and cell lines
  • The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy to detect SNVs, Short InDels, and fusions as mentioned below

* Any gene fusion detected with a confidence of more than 10 spanning read support will be considered a true mutant

** Gene amplifications from NGS is based on prediction algorithms using bioinformatics approach. Any gene predicted to have a copy number >= 6 copies is considered as a true prediction for a probable gene amplification that needs to be confirmed using alternate testing platforms viz MLPA, FISH and other technologies. In-house clinical validation limits to CNV prediction for ERBB2 and MET Oncogene.
