Navigating genetic landscapes in hereditary diseases and pharmacogenomics: From complex variants to star allele calling ​

​Thursday, March 14 ​
11:55 am -12:25 pm ​

Exhibit Theatre #1​

In this rapidly evolving genomics landscape driven by technological innovations in Next Generation Sequencing (NGS), the resulting decrease in cost of sequencing has expanded the usage of large panels such as exomes for routine clinical testing to include pharmacogenomics as well as hereditary disorders and rare diseases. SOPHiA DDMTM platform is capable of overcoming challenges posed by diverse sequencers, chemistries, and identifying hard-to-capture variants by resolving variants of uncertain significance across hereditary disorders and pharmacogenomics.

In this session, we will delve into the analytical performance of SOPHiA DDMTM on Element’s AVITIä, highlighting its technology-agnostic capabilities, followed by the real-world experiences shared by Dr. Olena Kis from Henry Ford Health Systems.

In her talk, Dr. Kis will discuss case studies highlighting the successful detection of complex variants through exome sequencing. These studies, focusing on hereditary cancer and pharmacogenomics applications, underscore the impact of SOPHiA DDMTM in managing hereditary cancers and shaping the path forward for precision medicine.
