SkylineDx Partners With German Hospital to Assess Multiple Myeloma Test

Feb 04, 2020
|
staff reporter

NEW YORK – Dutch diagnostics company SkylineDx announced on Tuesday a partnership with the multiple myeloma department of Wuerzburg University Medical Center II in Germany to assess the company's MMprofiler diagnostic test.

The MMprofiler test is a microarray-based, gene-expression test for multiple myeloma based on a 92-gene signature called SKY92 for diagnosing patients in high and standard risk groups.  The test runs on Thermo Fisher Scientific Affymetrix microarrays and is offered as a CE-IVD kit in Europe, and as a laboratory-developed test in the US.

Target Enrichment NGS Panel Outperforms the Gold Standard for Sequence and CNV Analysis

Sponsored by
Roche

Target enrichment has been a major driver behind the clinical adoption of next-generation sequencing (NGS) over the last decade because it simplifies analysis and provides a cost-effective method of massive parallel resequencing. It has not only replaced Sanger sequencing, but it is actively dispensing the need for parallel copy number variant (CNV) analysis using classic techniques.
