Genomic profiling of NSCLC tumors with the TruSight oncology 500 assay provides broad coverage of clinically actionable genomic alterations and detection of known and novel associations between genomic alterations, TMB, and PD-L1.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Matching patients to an effective targeted therapy or immunotherapy is a challenge for advanced and metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), especially when relying on assays that test one marker at a time. Unlike traditional single marker tests, comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) can simultaneously assess NSCLC tumors for hundreds of genomic biomarkers and markers for immunotherapy response, leading to quicker and more precise matches to therapeutics.

Methods

In this study, we performed CGP on 7,606 patients with advanced or metastatic NSCLC using the Illumina TruSight Oncology 500 (TSO 500) CGP assay to show its coverage and utility in detecting known and novel features of NSCLC.

Results

Testing revealed distinct genomic profiles of lung adenoc
