Our pioneering, FDA-validated, tissue-based, comprehensive genomic profiling service for all solid tumours to help guide informed, personalised treatment decisions.1–3

What is FoundationOne®CDx?

Delivers all insights at once in a single test, thus saving tissue and time versus sequential biomarker testing1,2,6Provides insights that can help support treatment decisions and may improve clinical outcomes¥2,11–14Potentially expands your patients treatment options¥1,6–10 Reports vary according toregional differences, e.g. EU reports list EU-approvedtherapy options to supportclinical decision-making§5Clear, in-depth report providesinsights on the genomic profileof your patient, as well asassociated targeted therapiesand immunotherapies (rankedalphabetically within NCCNCategories of Preference) andrelevant clinical trials6Based on our analytically and clinically validated, FDA-approved comprehensive platform†1,5Assesses the four main classes of genomic alterations* in 324 cancer-relevant genes and reports TMB, MSI and LoH1,2A single, tissue- and time-saving testOpens possibilitiesEU reportSupports clinical decision-making Extensively validated 324 genes, TMB, MSI and LoHFDA
Genes and genomic signatures

Comprehensive assessment in a single test

FoundationOne CDx comprehensively examines the tumour genome, assessing the four main classes of genomic alterations in 324 known cancer-relevant genes, while also reporting TMB and MSI, which can help inform eligibility for immunotherapies.1,2,15─23 In addition, FoundationOne CDx reports high Loss of Heterozygosity (LoH), which may reflect if a tumour is homologous recombination deficient (HRD+) and which can help inform the use of poly-ADP ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitors.24,25

Validation

Based on FDA-approved comprehensive platform

FoundationOne CDx is based on our analytically and clinically validated, FDA-approved comprehensive platform.3,4 You can be confident in the insights generated by FoundationOne CDx thanks to the review and approval of the workflow by the FDA, including analytical and clinical validation, and bioinformatics.3,4




What is the difference between analytical and clinical validation?

In-depth report

EU report includes EU-approved therapies to support clinical decision-making§5

A clear, in-depth report provides insights on your patient’s genomic profile as well as associated targeted therapies, immunotherapies and relevant clinical trials.5 Approved therapies are ranked alphabetically within NCCN therapy categories. The report also highlights important disease-relevant genes with no reportable alterations identified and genomic alterations associated with potential resistance to therapy to help rule out potentially ineffective treatment.5 Reports vary according to regional differences, e.g. EU reports list EU-approved therapy options to support clinical decision-making.§

When using different Foundation Medicine services across the patient journey, consistency of the reports aid comparison of the results.

Impact of FoundationOne CDx

PD-L1 by IHC can be ordered as a supplemental test and may inform eligibility for several immunotherapies across many different cancer types.

*Base substitutions, insertions or deletions, copy number alterations and gene rearrangements.

†Clinical validation demonstrated concordance with the following companion diagnostics: cobas® EGFR Mutation Test, Ventana ALK (D5F3) CDx Assay, Vysis ALK Break-Apart FISH Probe Kit, therascreen® KRAS RGQ PCR Kit, Dako HER2 FISH PharmDx® Kit, cobas® BRAF V600 Mutation Test, THxID® BRAF kit. For more information, please see the FoundationOne®CDx Technical Information available at: https://www.foundationmedicine.qarad.eifu.online/foundationmedicine/en/.

For additional information on the NCCN categories please refer to the NCCN Compendium® (www.nccn.org).

§Therapies contained in the EU version of the report may have been approved through a centralised EU procedure or a national procedure in an EU Member State.

¥Based on a concordance study with FoundationOne®. FoundationOne CDx leverages the same comprehensive genomic profiling approach and is highly concordant with FoundationOne.
