Protean 600+ is a latest generation comprehensive genomic profiling test, that uses a single tumor specimen to evaluate over 600 genes.
The Protean 600+ test is part of the Protean MAPS® system, and is designed to provide the most comprehensive information regarding actionable targets in a specimen, to identify approved treatments and clinical trial opportunities.
Protean 600+ can be used for any cancer type but is ideal for analysis of solid tumors such as breast, lung, colon, pancreas, prostate, sarcoma, and others.
Protean 600+ Highlights:
Evaluates both DNA & RNA, and detects key gene fusions: ALK, RET, ROS, NTRK1,2,3, etc.
Uncovers SNP mutations, deletions, fusions, and copy number variants
Measures microsatellite instability (MSI) and tumor mutational burden (TMB)
Includes key inherited cancer genes
Can uncover important germ line variants
Uses a small amount of FFPE Materials
Detection of exon skipping, alternative splicing, and gene amplifications
The Protean 600+ report provides the information you need in a clear and easy to understand format.
Treatment recommendations organized by level of priority
Clinically actionable results
Potential clinical trials
MSI stability, TMB level
Key gene amplifications and fusions
The test can be used for any cancer type but is ideal for analysis of solid tumors such as breast, lung, colon, pancreas, prostate, sarcoma, and others.
