SOPHiA DDM™ Solid Tumor Solutions

Profiling the cancer genome to optimize solid tumor management

Clinical oncology is increasingly adopting next-generation sequencing (NGS) in response to the growing number and type of biomarkers that require rapid assessment.

Targeted genomic profiling offers the ability to focus on a set of biomarkers known to be associated with a cancer. Compared to broader approaches, targeted gene sequencing reduces workflow complexity, avoids unnecessary sequencing costs, and minimizes the effort needed for variant interpretation and reporting.

Expertly designed panels, delivering a high on-target rate throughout the entire target regions

Ready-to-use target-enriched libraries generated in just 1.5 days for DNA and 6 hours for RNA

Customizable content to perfectly meet the unique needs of each research laboratory

High coverage uniformity, ensuring accurate variant detection (SNVs, Indels, CNV, MSI, and gene fusions) and unlocking the efficiency in multiplexing more samples per run

Streamline interpretation with the SOPHiA DDM™ Platform intuitive variant filters, algorithm-supported variant classification with OncoPortal™ Plus to obtain the latest scientific evidence on all the relevant variants​

Have access to one of the largest networks of connected healthcare institutions within SOPHiA DDM™ Platform, to gain and share knowledge on relevant variants​

    Product Details

    Unlock efficiency in multiplexing more samples per run​

    SOPHiA DDM™ Solid Tumor Solution (STS) and Solid Tumor Plus Solution (STS+) are NGS-based applications that combine expertly designed targeted panels with access to the analysis and interpretation functions of the SOPHiA DDM™ Platform. Both solutions enable accurate detection of SNVs, Indels and CNVs in addition to Microsatellite Instability (MSI) status in genes involved in solid tumors, such as lung, colorectal, skin, and brain cancers. SOPHiA DDM™ STS+ offers additional insights by also targeting 136 gene fusions, MET (exon 14 skipping), and EGFR (vIII exon skipping). Both solutions provide a streamlined sample-to-report workflow that greatly accelerates variant assessment, while ensuring confidence in your results.

    Dedicated features to ease variant interpretation

    The SOPHiA DDM™ Platform features intuitive variant filters and prioritization options to streamline interpretation and help reduce turnaround time.

    • Hotspot Screening to quickly pinpoint the relevant hotspots and provide a clear overview of the wild-type hotspot positions
    • Variant Pre-Classification to facilitate assessment of variants’ pathogenicity
    • Virtual Panels to limit interpretation to a subset of genes
    • Cascading Filters to enable user-created custom filtering strategies for quicker identification of relevant variants
    • OncoPortal™ Plus to support decisions based on the JAX-CKB, CAP, ASCO, AMP and other databases

    Thoroughly assessed to provide confidence in your results

    A six-center evaluation assessed SOPHiA DDM™ STS with more than 150 samples. The study confirmed reliable performance that can facilitate confident decision-making.
