Companion diagnostics (CDx) have the extraordinary power to connect a patient’s unique genetic profile to a promising, personalized treatment option. While dramatic improvements in outcomes for cancer patients have been observed through this approach, it has yet to take hold in other disease areas, such as those involving the central nervous and cardiovascular systems.

Potentially targetable biomarkers in these and other conditions present a variety of testing hurdles for laboratories, including the presence of complex, difficult-to-amplify sequences and cumbersome testing workflows. Asuragen’s unique and proprietary chemistries have the ability to detect and analyze these targets with unprecedented ease, providing simple, streamlined, and easily deployable testing solutions to bring the routine analysis of these targets within the reach of laboratories everywhere. These capabilities have been applied to challenging markers including long repetitive sequences, complex single nucleotide variants, pseudogene discrimination, gene conversions, methylation and copy number variation and incorporated into applications ranging from highly sensitive oncology monitoring to phasing of lesions to determine eligibility for targeted therapies.
Asuragen’s kitted products feature all of the necessary components – reagents, controls, and automated software – to deliver quality and accurate results in any laboratory around the world.
REAGENTS
