Attain deeper insights about solid tumors with CGP
Cancers such as breast cancer, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and colorectal cancer are complex diseases for which the number of biomarkers and tumor-agnostic treatments are increasing exponentially.1 For precision oncology strategies to be successful, clinicians and researchers must be able to distinguish the actionable genomic alterations in the appropriate disease context.
Comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) is a next-generation sequencing technology that provides meaningful insights, uncovering the unique molecular signature of each tumor. Unlike single biomarker or hotspot assays, CGP is capable of detecting all four main mutation classes (single nucleotide variants, insertions/deletions, copy number variations, and rearrangements/fusions) known to drive cancer growth across a broad panel of cancer-related genes as well as key complex signatures.
Technological advances have increased the value of comprehensive genomic profiling to deliver more insights, more quickly, potentially offering significant savings in sample, time, and cost.
Leveraging the FoundationOne® Analysis Platform and the AVENIO workflow, AVENIO Tumor Tissue CGP Kits are part of Roche’s broad oncology portfolio that offers flexible solutions to meet your research needs. With CGP solutions from Roche, you can achieve deeper genomic insights about solid tumors in your own lab, fostering discovery and advancing precision oncology.

Benefits of comprehensive genomic profiling solutions from Roche
Powered by the expertise and technology of Roche and Foundation Medicine®
The development of high-quality comprehensive genomic profiling assays is technically challenging and requires the integration of deep oncology, technology, and bioinformatics expertise.
- Our portfolio of CGP solutions are built on Foundation Medicine’s deep understanding of cancer genomics and its application in clinical practice, supported by Roche’s 125-year legacy of innovation.
- Roche is a global leader in pharmaceuticals and diagnostics and a pioneer in personalized medicine. We have supported 24 million patients with Roche medicines and delivered 30 billion in vitro diagnostics tests in 2024.2
- Foundation Medicine has proven expertise in comprehensive genomic profiling, having delivered >1.3 million patient CGP reports and produced 1,000+ peer-reviewed oncology publications.3 In addition, Foundation Medicine send-out solutions have been used in > 500 clinical trials.4
Accurate and relevant comprehensive genomic insights
Roche’s comprehensive genomic profiling solutions leverage Foundation Medicine’s proven panel design and evidence-based analytics to deliver high-confidence genomic insights and fewer missed opportunities compared to single-biomarker and hotspot testing.
The AVENIO Tumor Tissue CGP Kits offer a comprehensive 335-gene panel. Aligned with the FoundationOne® CDx panel design,5,6,7 the kits detect all four major classes of genomic variants: single-base mutations, insertions/deletions, copy number variations, and rearrangements/fusions and detect complex genomic signatures such as tumor mutational burden (TMB), microsatellite instability (MSI), genomic loss of heterozygosity (gLOH), and homologous recombination deficiency signature (HRDsig).6,7,8
AVENIO Tissue Tumor CGP kits include the expertly curated FoundationOne® Analysis Platform, a cloud-based secondary analysis software built on Foundation Medicine’s proprietary evidence-based algorithms.
- Roche CGP solutions also include compatibility with tertiary analysis softwares such as navify® Mutation Profiler, to provide relevant genomic interpretation with biological significance.9
Efficient and streamlined NGS workflows
AVENIO comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) kits offer both manual and automated workflows, providing streamlined, end-to-end solutions from tissue sample to result generation, ensuring simplicity and efficiency.
A fast, highly efficient, and safe xylene-free DNA extraction protocol ensures high DNA yields and quality from challenging formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples.6
AVENIO CGP workflows employ an enhanced library preparation protocol with a reduced, one-hour ligation time. This, combined with an optimized target enrichment workflow offering increased multiplexing capabilities, leads to lower per-sample sequencing costs.6
Roche CGP solutions offer end-to-end, automated data management with the user-friendly AVENIO Connect software (included with the kits). Key features include Human Genome Variation Society (HGVS) annotation, automated data upload and download, and robust customer support.8
Both the manual and automated kit workflows enable streamlined, end-to-end workflows, with a less than five-day turnaround time from DNA extraction to result generation.6,7
