Informing outcomes through ctDNA monitoring
Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) has emerged as a promising tool to support oncologists in monitoring their advanced cancer patients’ response to therapy. Two studies being presented at ASCO (Free ASCO Whitepaper) further define the clinical application of ctDNA monitoring and demonstrate the value of FoundationOneTracker to support and inform oncologists’ treatment planning.

Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) monitoring to inform maintenance outcomes in patients (pts) with advanced NSCLC treated with induction atezolizumab+carboplatin+nab-paclitaxel (Abstract 9075)
Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) dynamics and survival outcomes in patients (pts) with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (aNSCLC) and high (>50%) programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression, randomized to cemiplimab (cemi) vs chemotherapy (chemo) (Abstract 9022)
New Capabilities of Liquid Biopsy
Several studies to be presented by Foundation Medicine at ASCO (Free ASCO Whitepaper) demonstrate the unique capabilities of the company’s FDA-approved liquid biopsy comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) test, FoundationOneLiquid CDx. Foundation Medicine is unique in its ability to report ctDNA tumor fraction in clinical reports for more confident clinical decision making, and along with its collaborators, is presenting two studies highlighting the clinical utility and differentiating factors of FoundationOne Liquid CDx’s tumor fraction reporting. Foundation Medicine will also present new data describing FoundationOne Liquid CDx’s robust ctDNA-based detection of rearrangements and fusions. It is the only company with companion diagnostics for fusions on both its tissue and blood-based CGP tests, and this research at ASCO (Free ASCO Whitepaper) continues to demonstrate the clinical utility of FoundationOne Liquid CDx’s regulatory-grade fusion detection and bioinformatics.

Utility of ctDNA tumor fraction to inform negative liquid biopsy (LBx) results and need for tissue reflex in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (aNSCLC) (Abstract 9076)
The effect of ctDNA Tumor Fraction (TF) on overall survival and concordance between tissue genomics and ctDNA in Lung-MAP (Abstract 9035)
Liquid-biopsy detection of FGFR2 and other actionable rearrangements in GI malignancies (Abstract 4085)
Use of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) to complement tumor tissue homologous recombination repair (HRR) gene alteration testing in TALAPRO-2, a Phase 3 study of talazoparib (TALA) + enzalutamide (ENZA) versus placebo (PBO) + ENZA as first-line (1L) treatment in patients (pts) with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) (Abstract 5056)1
Mobocertinib efficacy in patients with NSCLC and EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations (ex20ins) identified by next-generation sequencing (NGS) of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) (Abstract 9082)
Driving innovation through development and validation of complex genomic biomarkers
Multiple lines of evidence, including what will be communicated in an oral presentation, demonstrate the validity and utility of Foundation Medicine’s complex genomic biomarkers, including tumor mutational burden (TMB) and a signature for homologous recombination deficiency (HRDsig).

Tumor Mutational Burden (TMB) Measurement from an FDA-Approved Assay and Real-World Overall Survival (rwOS) on Single-Agent Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors (ICI) in over 8,000 Patients across 24 Cancer Types (Abstract 2503)
Tumor Mutational Burden (TMB) in Real-world Patients with Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC): Differences in Genomic Alterations (GA) and Predictive Value for Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor (ICI) Effectiveness (Abstract 4146)
Metastatic Breast Cancer (MBC) with Ultra-high Tumor Mutational Burden (UHTMB): A Comprehensive Genomic Profiling (CGP) Study (Abstract 1036)
HRD Signature and HRD Genomic Landscape of tumors from 896 Patients with Early-Stage Breast Cancer (BC) (Abstract 539)
Effectiveness of PARP inhibitor maintenance therapy (mPARPi) in advanced ovarian cancer (OC) by BRCA1/2 and HRD signature in real-world practice (Abstract 5583)
Addressing inequities in next generation sequencing for patients with NSCLC
Additionally, in partnership with The West Cancer Center, OneOncology, Flatiron Health and Genentech, a member of the Roche Group, there will be an oral presentation of joint research examining inequities in next generation sequencing (NGS) testing for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer being treated in the community setting in the United States.

Practice- and provider-level inequities in Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) by race/ethnicity for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (aNSCLC) patients (Abstract 6508)
"Our data at ASCO (Free ASCO Whitepaper) demonstrates the expanded and differentiated capabilities of our monitoring and liquid biopsy tests, reinforces our leadership in detection of complex genomic biomarkers, and supports increased confidence and ease in our tests’ use by doctors and researchers," says Mia Levy, MD, PhD, chief medical officer at Foundation Medicine. "Much of this research was conducted in collaboration with our partners across the oncology ecosystem, underscoring our commitment to working together in order to make faster, more impactful progress for patients."
