P3.02-061 An ALK Follow-On Companion Diagnostic Using CGP for Clinical Care of Patients with NSCLC

Abstract

Advanced NSCLC patients may benefit from treatment with ALK inhibitors if they harbor ALK rearrangements such as an EML4-ALK fusion. While the FDA has approved companion diagnostics (CDx) using IHC and FISH-based assays for ALK, molecular diagnostic testing in NSCLC is rapidly evolving towards comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) to test for a growing number of established predictive biomarkers. Clinical validity of ALK testing using CGP however, has not yet been demonstrated in an FDA approved manner. We present here the first follow-on CDx ALK test using CGP as a part of our universal CDx platform.
