Caris Life Sciences Adds Next-Generation Sequencing to Enhance Evidence-Based Tumor Profiling Service for Cancer Patients
Date:1/28/2013

IRVING, Texas, Jan. 28, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Caris Life Sciences®, a leading biosciences company focused on fulfilling the promise of personalized medicine, announced today the commercial availability of mutational analysis by Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS), which will replace its former mutational analysis platform. NGS joins an extensive collection of tumor profiling technologies currently employed by Caris Molecular Intelligence™ Service (MI Profile™), including Immunohistochemistry (IHC), fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), chromogenic in situ hybridization (CISH), restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and polymerase chain reaction (PCR), providing oncologists the most comprehensive molecular profiling capabilities commercially available today.

MI Profile™ offers comprehensive tumor biomarker analyses coupled with an extensive clinical literature evidence review, which matches potential therapies to patient-specific biomarker information. Oncologists are provided simple-to-read reports indicating which available chemotherapeutic, biologic and hormone therapies are potentially effective, along with those that are potentially less effective, based on the molecular profiling results. The report further provides information on appropriate and enrolling clinical trials for the patient. This service presents clinically-relevant, patient-specific information doctors can use to individualize cancer treatment.

Unlike other tumor profiling services on the market, which are often powered by a single technology platform, or hinge on the successful exploitation of a particular DNA mutation, Caris remains both technology- and biomarker-agnostic, employing a wide range of technologies to uncover a broad array of key biomarkers. With this unique approach, the company currently reports potentially clinically-relevant biomarker to drug associations in approximately 95 percent of p
