COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR MULTIMODAL ANALYSIS OF CMET NUCLEIC ACIDS

Described herein are methods and assays relating to the detection of cMET alterations (e.g. variations in copy number and expression level, and/or the presence of mutations, including point mutations). Existing methods are limited in their clinical usefulness by, e.g., limited sensitivity, inter-lab...

Zusammenfassung:Described herein are methods and assays relating to the detection of cMET alterations (e.g. variations in copy number and expression level, and/or the presence of mutations, including point mutations). Existing methods are limited in their clinical usefulness by, e.g., limited sensitivity, inter-lab discordance, or inability to provide the necessary multiplex ability. The methods and assays provided herein permit multimodal, multiplex assaying for faster, more cost-effective testing and screening of patients, permitting improved healthcare.
