Converting a breast cancer microarray signature into a high-throughput diagnostic test

Abstract: Background: A 70-gene tumor expression profile was established as a powerful predictor of disease outcome in young breast cancer patients. This profile, however, was generated on microarrays containing 25,000 60-mer oligonucleotides that are not designed for processing of many samples on a routine basis.

“…79 Following an initial validation study performed in a similar population, 80 the test was commercialised. Initially it was performed using array technology on fresh-frozen tissue, 50 but since 2012 it has been available for FFPE tissue samples. 81 Currently the test is marketed by Agendia as part of the SYMPHONY profile and is performed in central laboratories located in the Netherlands and in the USA; the current list price of SYMPHONY is €2675.…”

“…Tumour samples, RNA extraction and gene expression analysis Frozen tumour samples were processed in Agendia's laboratories (Amsterdam, the Netherlands), for RNA isolation, amplification and labelling as previously described [7,10]. Samples were available for RNA isolation if they contained at least 30% tumour cells on haematoxylin/eosin stained sections.…”

“…The MammaPrint assay uses microarray technology to assess a 70-gene expression profile to assess a breast cancer patient's risk of developing recurrence or distant metastases or death [4, [6][7][8]. The 70-gene expression profile was discovered by researchers at the Netherlands Cancer Institute, and is now performed and marketed by Agendia (www.agendia.com).…”
