Oncomine™ tumor specific panels

The Ion Torrent™ Oncomine™ tumor specific panels are small curated panels with verified performance that complement the on-market Oncomine™ assays and provide an end-to-end solution for research of specific tumors such as bladder, prostate, melanoma, and others from FFPE tissue samples.

The Oncomine™ tumor specific panels provide the following benefits.

  • Small tumor specific panels with relevant content for research

  • End-to-end workflow support that includes bioinformatics and reporting

  • Low sample input requirement and robust performance from FFPE tissue samples

  • Specialized support for assay verification

  • Panel customization

Ten tumor specific core panels and one predesigned panel are available in Ion AmpliSeq™ Designer. The performance of each panel was verified on oncological research samples. With each core panel, Copy Number Variant (CNV) baseline is provided for data analysis in Ion Reporter™ Software for samples that are sequenced on the Ion 530™ Chip. Predesigned panels do not have dedicated Ion Reporter™ Software workflows; analysis is supported with the provided BED files, similar to custom panels.

  1. Start a new design using a core or predesigned Oncomine™ tumor specific panel.

  2. Check gene availability before starting a new design.

  3. Start a new design by entering or uploading a custom gene list.
