OverviewThe AVENIO Tumor Tissue Analysis Kits V2 provide reagents to isolate DNA from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue, prepare sequencing libraries and enrich selected regions using three panel options:
- AVENIO Tumor Targeted Panel V2 — 17 genes
- AVENIO Tumor Expanded Panel V2 — 77 genes
- AVENIO Tumor Surveillance Panel V2 — 197 genes
These ready-to-use kits use a hybrid-capture DNA workflow to profile genomic alterations from solid tumor FFPE tissue. The kits enable detection of four mutation classes (SNVs, indels, CNVs and fusions) using DNA-only processing and include reagents sufficient for up to 24 reportable results per sequencing run on an Illumina NextSeq 500/550/550Dx (Research Use Only mode).
Benefits at a glance- Aligned tissue and plasma analysis when paired with AVENIO ctDNA Surveillance Kit V2 — identical panel content and hybrid-capture workflow to support baseline establishment and concordance analysis between tissue and plasma.
- Streamlined end-to-end research workflow — extraction to analysis in approximately five days covering SNVs, indels, fusions and CNVs in a single DNA workflow.
- Complete research solution — reagents for DNA isolation, library preparation and target enrichment combined with analytics and reporting to support in-house NGS oncology research workflows.
Analytical performance (highlights)Mutation classes and mutant allele frequency / copy number: SNVs — 5% MAF; Indels — 5% MAF; Fusions — 5% MAF; CNVs — sample dependent.
Sensitivity and PPV per variant reported as >99% for SNVs, indels and fusions at the stated allele frequencies; CNV specificity reported high (PPV >99%) in technical study; ERBB2 and MET detected at ~4.5 copies in validation sample.
Performance notes: stated performance requires ≥20 million reads per sample for Targeted, Expanded and Surveillance Kits V2; sensitivity determined using verified reference samples; SNV performance is panel-wide; indel and fusion performance reported for whitelist variants.
