Treatment decision-making in recurrent or metastatic breast cancer
The Com.Pl.i.t DX® Breast tests are powerful tools for assessing breast cancer status and can be used to determine whether a patient should undergo specific targeted treatments.
Determine the molecular profile of the tumor, including gene mutations and copy number variations.
Identify the on-label drug that targets the mutated gene(s) or the pathway in which these gene(s) are involved.
Detect mutations associated with resistance to targeted therapies.
Recommend off-label therapeutic options and/or indicate therapies currently under evaluation in clinical trials.

It provides a complete molecular profile including biomarkers with approved treatments as well as emerging biomarkers according to international guidelines.
• AKT1 • ESR1
• PIK3CA • PTEN
• BRCA1/2 • PALB2 • NTRK1/2/3 fusions
• RET fusions • MSI
• Patients with limited or insufficient tissue
• Disease monitoring during or after treatment
• Detection of treatment resistance
The combination of tissue and liquid biopsy increases diagnostic sensitivity and supports optimally targeted therapy selection.
Each method has a certain rate of false-negative results; therefore, combining them increases diagnostic sensitivity and leads to the detection of more clinically actionable molecular alterations.
In addition, the parallel use of the two methods can:
• Increase the likelihood of identifying clinically actionable alterations
• Allow for the faster initiation of appropriate treatment

What types of cancer do the tests cover?
They cover recurrent or metastatic ER+/HER2- breast cancer.
What is the sample type required for the Com.Pl.i.t DX® Breast tests?
For the Com.Pli.t.DX® Breast analysis, either a formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor tissue block or, alternatively, unstained FFPE tissue sections mounted on glass slides (air-dried, not oven-dried) is required. Specifically, 4 sections of 3 μm thickness and 6 sections of 10 μm thickness are needed.
For liquid biopsy analysis (ctDNA), the sample must consist of 10 mL of peripheral whole blood collected in a Cell-Free DNA BCT STRECK tube.
