FoundationOne®CDx

What is FoundationOne®CDx

FoundationOne®CDx

FoundationOne®CDx is the first FDA-approved tissue-based broad companion diagnostic (CDx) that is clinically and analytically validated for all solid tumors. The test is designed to provide physicians with clinically actionable information - both to consider appropriate therapies for patients and understand results with evidence of resistance – based on the individual genomic profile of each patient’s cancer.

Test results include microsatellite instability (MSI) and tumor mutational burden (TMB) to help inform immunotherapy decisions, and loss of heterozygosity (LOH) for ovarian cancer patients. You can also order PD-L1 immunohistochemistry (IHC) testing# as an optional add-on test. Foundation Medicine’s test portfolio enables you to easily reflex FoundationOne CDx, a tissue-based test, to FoundationOne®Liquid CDx, a blood-based test, or vice versa.

Coverage includes:

  • National coverage for qualifying Medicare1 and Medicare Advantage2 patients across all solid tumors.3
  • 80 commercial health plans cover one or more Foundation Medicine tests.

87% -- or nearly 9 out of 10 patients -- pay $0 for testing.4

Additional Notes

# PD-L1 by Immunohistochemistry (IHC) can be ordered as a supplemental test and may inform eligibility for several immunotherapies across different cancer types

‡ When “Portfolio Reflex” is selected on the test requisition form (TRF), Foundation Medicine will proceed with the initial test and if the specimen does not meet the criteria for successful testing, we will automatically reflex to the other test and procure a new specimen.

Important Safety Information

FoundationOne CDx

FoundationOne®CDx is a qualitative next-generation sequencing based in vitro diagnostic test for cancer patients with solid tumors and is for prescription use only. The test analyzes 324 genes as well as genomic signatures including microsatellite instability (MSI) and tumor mutational burden (TMB) and is a companion diagnostic to identify patients who may benefit from treatment with specific therapies in accordance with the approved therapeutic product labeling. Additional genomic findings may be reported and are not prescriptive or conclusive for labeled use of any specific therapeutic product. Use of the test does not guarantee a patient will be matched to a treatment. A negative result does not rule out the presence of an alteration. Some patients may require a biopsy.
