When an Exome Test Is Part of the Therapy and Not a Diagnostic: John West on Personalis and Personalized Cancer Vaccines John West, CEO, Personalis John West discusses how Personalis is participating in the dramatic shift in drug development toward immuno-oncology drugs. Go to podcast [...]
ImmunogenomicsID™ Comprehensive immunogenomic characterization ImmunogenomicsID™, the latest analytics component of the ACE ImmunoID platform, summarizes critical areas of tumor biology such as the antigen processing machinery (APM), human leukocyte antigens (HLA), checkpoint modulation, and tumor escape. ImmunogenomicsID combines exome and transcriptome sequencing data from a paired tumor and normal [...]
Personalis, Inc. Launches Early Access Program for Cell-Free DNA ACE Exome for Tumor Neoantigens Menlo Park, CA – November 16, 2017 – Personalis, Inc., today announced the launch of an Early Access Program for its cell-free DNA (cfDNA) technology, which enables the detection of neoantigens across an exome (~20,000 genes) from a single [...]

The development [...]
We use machine learning and neural networks to provide you with advanced analytics to better inform your discovery and translational research programs. Leveraging our enhanced exome and transcriptome, we’ve applied these assays for deeper bioinformatics analysis to accurately predict neoantigens. Using neoantigens as a predictor for determining likelihood of response to immunotherapies is one exciting [...]
Many clinical studies depend on tissue archives that have been fixed using FFPE procedures. This preservation process makes it difficult to obtain a pure sample and often leads to RNA degradation. To overcome this challenge, Personalis has developed an exome-capture transcriptome protocol based on our ACE Technology that allows us to produce high-quality transcriptome sequencing [...]
