With FDA., CE-IVD, and NMPA approvals, the comprehensive tumor profiling kit enables decentralized, standardized oncology testing worldwide

 

Toronto, Canada – September 2, 2025 – Geneseeq Technology Inc. today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted 510(k) clearance for GENESEEQPRIME® NGS Tumor Profiling Assay, an in vitrodiagnostic (IVD) test kit that uses next-generation sequencing (NGS) of DNA from FFPE tumor tissue to detect tumor gene alterations across a comprehensive multi gene panel in patients with solid malignant neoplasms.

The GENESEEQPRIME® assay interrogates 425 cancer-related genes, detecting multiple classes of genomic alterations – including single nucleotide variants (SNVs), insertions/deletions (indels), and selected gene amplification and translocations – while also reporting microsatellite instability (MSI) and tumor mutation burden (TMB). Analytical and clinical validation studies conducted across multiple U.S. clinical laboratories demonstrated high sensitivity, specificity, and reproducibility across variant types, supporting the assay’s intended use in clinical oncology.

Delivered as a ready-to-use IVD kit, GENESEEQPRIME® enables decentralized implementation in oncology laboratories, supporting local adoption while ensuring globally harmonized standards. The assay is paired with GENESIS by GENESEEQ®, the company’s proprietary bioinformatics pipeline and reporting system validated across multiple CLIA/CAP-accredited laboratories. The whole assay solution provides laboratories with a streamlined workflow and a consistent data analysis and reporting framework.

FDA clearance strengthens Geneseeq’s ability to support multi-regional clinical trials, biomarker-driven drug development, and future companion diagnostic (CDx) strategies by offering a standardized, validated platform that promotes data harmonization and operational efficiency across geographies. This milestone follows prior regulatory achievements, including CE-IVD marking in Europe and NMPA approval in China, further positioning Geneseeq as a global leader in precision oncology.

“FDA 510(k) clearance of GENESEEQPRIME® marks a major milestone for Geneseeq and for the broader oncology community,” said Xue Wu, PhD, CEO of Geneseeq Technology Inc. “By enabling laboratories to deliver high-quality genomic profiling locally on a standardized, regulatory-cleared platform, we are expanding patient access to precision medicine and supporting innovation in cancer care worldwide.”

May 7, 2025– Geneseeq Technology Inc., in collaboration with leading clinical institutions, has developed a cutting-edge blood-based screening test that could transform early detection of pancreatic cancer-potentially saving by identifying the disease at more treatable stages. Published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology (Impact Factor: 50.7), this study represents the most comprehensive assessment to date of using cell-free DNA (cfDNA) fragmentomics and artificial intelligence (AI) for early pancreatic cancer detection.

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most lethal malignancies, largely because it is rarely caught early and diagnosed too late for curative treatment. The five-year survival rate remains around 12%, and currently tools-such as imaging and CA19-9 blood test-often miss early-stage cases. There is currently no recommended population-wide screening method for PDAC.

The new test model from Geneseeq analyzes cfDNA fragmentomics-specific patterns of DNA fragments shed into the bloodstream by cancer cells. By applying advanced machine learning algorithm to shallow whole-genome sequencing data, the test can detect subtle genomic and epigenetic changes associated with early-stage PDAC.

Key clinical results:

• Achieved 93.4% sensitivity and 95.2% specificity in the training cohort
• Reached 90.91-97.3% sensitivity and 92.8-94.5% specificity in multiple validation cohorts
• Demonstrated strong performance even in early-state cancers
• Outperformed CA19-9, especially in individuals with normal bilirubin levels

“Our cfDNA fragmentomics model offers a practical, highly accurate, and non-invasive option for detecting pancreatic cancer early,” said Dr. Hua Bao, VP of R&D at Geneseeq. “It could support earlier identification of at-risk individuals, allowing timely clinical follow-up and potentially improving outcomes.”

What makes this approach especially promising is its clinical feasibility. The test uses low-coverage sequencing (as little as 0.5×), making it cost-effective and suitable for broader population screening. The test also showed high stability, even with lower DNA sequencing data, and could be used to monitor high-risk patients or suspicious pancreatic lesions. The researchers also estimated that applying this test at the population level could reduce pancreatic cancer mortality by up to 27%, by catching more cancers at a treatable stage.

Further research is underway to refine the model’s application in screening programs and to validate its effectiveness in more diverse populations. Clinicians may soon have a powerful new tool to help combat one of the hardest-to-detect cancers.

TORONTO, 12 Oct 2022 – Approximately 30% of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are non-metastatic and eligible for surgical resection with curative intent. Yet up to half of these patients developed recurrence and eventually lead to death despite curative resection. Recurrence is suspected to arise due to minimal residual disease (MRD), which are cancer cells remaining post-surgery that cannot be detected using conventional imaging methods. However, circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is shed by tumor cells into the patient’s bloodstream, with a matching mutational profile of the primary tumor cells. A recent prospective study published in the Journal of Hematology & Oncology, led by Jiangsu Oncology Hospital and Geneseeq demonstrated the clinical utility of longitudinal ctDNA monitoring in MRD detection and prognosis prediction in patients with resectable NSCLC.

This study included 128 stage I-III NSCLC patients who received curative surgical resection at the Jiangsu Oncology Hospital. Primary tumor and lymph node metastasis (LNM) samples were collected from surgeries as the standard of care. Plasma samples were collected pre-surgically, 7 days post-surgically, and every three months thereafter. Both tissue and plasma samples were sequenced using the 425-gene Geneseeqprime panel. A total of 645 tissue samples and 628 plasma samples were included in the analyses. The clonal phylogeny of each patient was reconstructed from multi-region tissue sequencing to aid the ctDNA detection.

Interestingly, patients with lung squamous-cell carcinoma displayed more frequent positive ctDNA results than those with lung adenocarcinoma. The detection rates positively correlated with TNM stages and LNM statuses. Smokers were more frequently ctDNA-positive than non-smokers pre-surgically, but not postsurgically. Notably, postsurgical ctDNA monitoring at as early as seven days after surgeries could indicate a high risk of recurrence (HR = 3.90, 95%CI: 1.85-8.20, P = 0.00011), independently of clinicopathological characteristics (multivariate-Cox: HR = 5.49, 95%CI: 1.86-16.20, P = 0.002). ctDNA detection at 3 months and 6 months could also serve as prognostic markers (3 months – HR = 4.32, 95%CI: 2.06-9.08, P < 0.0001; 6 months – HR = 6.19, 95%CI: 2.44-15.69, P < 0.0001). They remained statistically significant after adjusted for clinicopathological characteristics (multivariate-Cox: 3 months – HR = 4.17, 95%CI: 1.80-9.70, P < 0.001; 6 months – HR = 4.59, 95%CI: 1.68-12.50, P < 0.003). Longitudinal ctDNA detection accurately identified patients at high risk of recurrence (univariate-Cox: HR = 7.59, 95%CI: 3.53-16.32, P < 0.0001; multivariate-Cox: HR = 8.33, 95%CI: 3.59 -19.30, P < 0.001) and covered the majority of recurrence cases (73.5%, 25/34). In these cases, ctDNA MRD detection preceded radiographic relapse by a median of 145 days. The time intervals were similar in LUAD (144 days) and LUSC (150 days)

“ctDNA could serve as a promising biomarker for risk of recurrence in NSCLC patients who receive curative surgeries. Longitudinal ctDNA surveillance could reliably predict recurrence, opening a window of ~145 days for timely and optimal disease management”, says Dr. Hua Bao, author and director of Geneseeq Research Institute.
