Boston, MA, USA, and Lausanne, SWITZERLAND, June 1st, 2021 — SOPHiA GENETICS, the creator of a global data-sharing network that advances data-driven medicine, today released SOPHiA DDM™ for Blood Cancers, novel blood cancer testing solutions across the entire workflow from setup, genomic testing, and in-house advanced analytics. The solutions target the most relevant DNA variants and RNA fusion genes for blood cancers, and come with SOPHiA DDMTM platform analysis, easing the identification of major biomarkers with secondary and tertiary analyses.
Molecular profiling by next-generation sequencing (NGS) of myeloid tumors has transformed the investigation of pathogenic variants that could cause blood cancers. However, difficulties such as NGS design optimization and implementing bioinformatics for accurate variant calling can still be challenging for new and existing laboratories. SOPHiA GENETICS’ scalable new portfolio is designed to address these challenges and empower labs to confidently and securely identify major biomarkers associated with different blood cancers. The portfolio includes:
The above solutions streamline the analysis of complex genomic variants (within CALR, CEBPA, ASXL1, FLT3, FLT3 ITDs) by combining a capture-based target enrichment kit with the analytical performance and advanced features of the SOPHiA DDM™ platform. Importantly, all these applications can be customized to fully respond to the needs of a lab. With the in-house capability, users can reduce cost and save weeks of crucial time spent waiting on results from a send-out approach. Users also benefit from extensive community resources from more than 750 hospitals around the world.
Additionally, the adoption of SOPHiA DDM™ for Blood Cancers allows users to retain full data ownership and rely on expertise from renowned leaders in the field, while utilizing a platform that complies with international data protection laws and regulations, including HIPAA and GDPR. The platform’s security infrastructure has been designed to protect data against damage, loss, and unauthorized access, use, modification, disclosure, or other misuses.
