Comprehensive Immunogenomics for Biomarker Discovery from a Single Sample

  • While the success of checkpoint blockade has been promising, it’s increasingly
    apparent that predicting patient response to immunotherapies requires a more
    robust approach to tumor immunogenomics.
  • By combining highly sensitive, exome-scale DNA and RNA sequencing with
    advanced analytics, ImmunoID NeXT provides a multidimensional view of the
    tumor and the tumor microenvironment (TME) from a single sample
    preparation.
  • In this presentation, we’ll discuss the benefits of this unique, innovative design
    for immuno-oncology translational research including mastering challenging
    samples, utilizing optimized algorithms, and obtaining accurate genomic data for
    identifying novel biomarker signatures.
