Clinical and Technical Validation of OncoIndx Assay-A Comprehensive Genome Profiling Assay for Pan-Cancer Investigations.

Comprehensive next-generation sequencing (NGS) assays enable the identification of clinically relevant mutations, enhancing the capability for targeted therapeutic interventions. In addition, genomic alterations driving the oncogenic roadmap and leading to resistance mechanisms are reshaping precision oncology. We report the workflow and clinical and technical validation of the OncoIndx NGS platform-a comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP)-based assay for pan-cancer investigation.

Frequent Amplification and Overexpression of PSMA in Basallike Breast Cancer from Analysis of The Cancer Genome Atlas.

Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is frequently overexpressed in nonprostate malignancies. This preclinical study investigated the molecular basis of the application of PMSA-targeting radiopharmaceuticals in breast cancer subtypes. The somatic copy number status and the transcriptomic and protein expressions of (gene name of PSMA) were analyzed across breast cancer subtypes in 998 patients from The Cancer Genome Atlas dataset.

Host-dependent molecular factors mediating SARS-CoV-2 infection to gain clinical insights for developing effective targeted therapy.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), a recent viral pandemic that first began in December 2019, in Hunan wildlife market, Wuhan, China. The infection is caused by a coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2 and clinically characterized by common symptoms including fever, dry cough, loss of taste/smell, myalgia and pneumonia in severe cases. With overwhelming spikes in infection and death, its pathogenesis yet remains elusive.
