- Measuring circulating
cancer cells, cell-free DNA,
or RNA in blood or urine
- Basic methodology:
enrichment, measurement,
tagging

CANCER TYPES OVERVIEW
August 2016 http://www.amplion.com
- Most companies are
developing/marketing multi-cancer
panels
- Biocept, Oncocyte, Circologene and
Trovagene are the only companies
that are developing/marketing single
disease LB tests
16. 21 August 16
CURRENT APPLICATIONS
August 2016 http://www.amplion.com
- Use for high risk populations (e.g. familial
history)
- Negative predictive value tests
- CDx for patients with tissue sample
compromise issues
17. 21 August 17
ANALYTES
August 2016 http://www.amplion.com
- ctDNA dominates (1 company using CTCs, 2
using RNA)
- CTCs have had some high profile Dx failures
in the past
- One company currently uses a mix of CTCs
and ctDNA
19. 21 August 19
TECHNOLOGIES
August 2016 http://www.amplion.com
- All new tests use sequencing
- All but Biocept use sequencing exclusively
- Biocept uses a mix of sequencing, FISH,
and (presumably) ICC
