NEW YORK (GenomeWeb) – Illumina and Loxo Oncology said today that they plan to develop sequencing-based pan-cancer companion diagnostics for two of Loxo's targeted oncology drugs.
The companies will use a version of Illumina's TruSight 170 panel, a hybrid capture panel launched in the beginning of 2017 that analyzes both DNA and RNA. The test will be run on Illumina's NextSeq 550Dx platform.
