"Caris Life Sciences®...has published a study in Oncotarget validating the analytical and clinical performance of MI Cancer Seek®. This FDA-approved assay is used as a companion diagnostic (CDx) to identify cancer patients who may benefit from targeted therapies. It includes one pan-cancer and five tumor-specific indications for numerous FDA-approved therapies. MI Cancer Seek is the first and only test to combine whole exome sequencing (WES) and whole transcriptome sequencing (WTS) with FDA-approved CDx indications for solid tumor profiling in both adult and pediatric patients, marking a significant advancement in precision oncology."
The clinical and analytical validation presented herein demonstrates non-inferiority of MI Cancer Seek relative to other FDA-approved CDx tests (>97% negative and positive percent agreement), as well as its precision, sensitivity, and specificity. Accordingly, MI Cancer Seek represents a safe and effective comprehensive molecular test option supporting biomarker-directed care for oncology patients.
"Caris Life Sciences®...announced the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved MI Cancer Seek™ for use as a companion diagnostic (CDx) to identify cancer patients who may benefit from treatment with targeted therapies. The assay includes one pan-cancer and five tumor-specific indications for numerous FDA-approved therapies. MI Cancer Seek is the first and only simultaneous Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) and Whole Transcriptome Sequencing (WTS)-based assay with FDA-approved CDx indications for molecular profiling of solid tumors. MI Cancer Seek is available for adults and pediatric patients, ages 1-22."
