Great to meet many at #genomicsfest - thank you to all who came up to say 'hi'!

4:15pm October 4th 2017 via Hootsuite

Crompton: Still need more ways to target cancer, more Rx. #genomicsfest

3:57pm October 4th 2017 via Hootsuite

Chevillet: Will see key applications - this tumor, this mutation, this Rx. EGFR resistance has been approved #genomicsfest

3:56pm October 4th 2017 via Hootsuite

Thorner: 5y? Reddi: Being able to draw correlates, from dx or prognostic perspective, where non-invasive tests become norm #genomicsfest

3:55pm October 4th 2017 via Hootsuite

Q: Anyone working to maximize pts' ctDNA content? Chevillet: One study - vigorous exercise, found muscle markers increase #genomicsfest

3:52pm October 4th 2017 via Hootsuite

Crompton: Easier to get a blood smpl; lots of pts are going to go ahead and buy it. Pts want their physicians to get all info #genomicsfest

3:51pm October 4th 2017 via Hootsuite

Reddi: Liquid biopsy isn't reimbursed yet, too new. What about VUS's? What does it mean? Solid tumor can't extrapolate to LB #genomicsfest

3:50pm October 4th 2017 via Hootsuite

Q: Guardant360 is 73; FMI is 62 genes; how will panels be adopted? Reddi: It is driven by reimb. <50 genes reimb much higher #genomicsfes

3:49pm October 4th 2017 via Hootsuite

Crompton: Tissue of origin - could be coupled with CTCs and IHC; perhaps looking at breakpoints and open chromatin for origin #genomicsfest

3:47pm October 4th 2017 via Hootsuite

Crompton: Rare subclonal TK can become dom. at time of relapse. Only way to know is more ctDNA studies. Relapse not looked at #genomicsfest

3:46pm October 4th 2017 via Hootsuite

Crompton: Answer to that is unknowable. Hint from leukemia: bone marrow from pediatric smpls - see subclonal TK events #genomicsfest

3:45pm October 4th 2017 via Hootsuite

Thorner: What about MAF that's low? Reddi: What does 0.2% mean to a pt? Heterogeneity, thus their LOD set at 1% #genomicsfest

3:44pm October 4th 2017 via Hootsuite

Reddi: Narrowed down to a handful (14) genes. What are most common cancers, most common variants. Also actionability #genomicsfest

3:43pm October 4th 2017 via Hootsuite

Q: Det cancer type? What genes, types of muts? Reddi: Looked at 2y of gene-panel results; checked against literature #genomicsfest

3:42pm October 4th 2017 via Hootsuite

Crompton: Li-Fraumeni, is 60% risk, could use liquid biopsy for freq monitoring. Problem to know what to look for, potential #genomicsfest

3:40pm October 4th 2017 via Hootsuite

Q: Liquid biopsies used proactively (screening)? Crompton: No data at all - 'very excited about it'. Pts with predisposition #genomicsfest

3:40pm October 4th 2017 via Hootsuite

Reddi: QIAGEN putting resources into preanalytical variables. What is the best method as 'truth'. #genomicsfest

3:39pm October 4th 2017 via Hootsuite

Chevillet: Raises a good point - where skin cells are accidently collected in a blood draw, where epithelial CTC markers used #genomicsfest

3:38pm October 4th 2017 via Hootsuite

Thorner: Standardization of collection? Reddi: Starting-point can all be arguable; tumor cellularity in FFPE? #genomicsfest

3:36pm October 4th 2017 via Hootsuite

Crompton: Can imagine the day where resistance is actively monitored, managed like HIV. #genomicsfest

3:35pm October 4th 2017 via Hootsuite

Q: Where is the most interesting dev? Crompton: For ctDNA, the clinical prognostic outcome. #genomicsfest

3:34pm October 4th 2017 via Hootsuite

Chevillet: Unk where the most useful biomarker will be - in exosomes, in CTCs, in ctDNA. 'We have to show it.' #genomicsfest

3:32pm October 4th 2017 via Hootsuite

Chevillet: But CTC selection is a problem. MicroRNAs thought to be encapsulated and then it wasn't true. #genomicsfest

3:32pm October 4th 2017 via Hootsuite

Crompton: How to control for CTCs in ctDNA samples? At 0.1%, it all matters. Chevillet: Ways to select for / against CTCs #genomicsfest

3:30pm October 4th 2017 via Hootsuite

Reddi: Not easy to transfer NIPT over to cancer; many more considerations. #genomicsfest
