Labcorp’s OmniSeq has selected GenomOncology (GO) Pathology Workbench to support the analysis of a genomic and immune profiling test, OmniSeq INSIGHT, for solid tumours.
The test is designed to combine genomic and immune profiling to identify a patient’s tumour type and provide potential treatment or clinical trial options.

OmniSeq INSIGHT evaluates the full exonic coding region of 523 genes through next-generation sequencing. It examines mutations, copy number alterations and fusions/splice variants that include genes associated with homologous recombination repair deficiency (HRR/HRD), tumour mutational burden (TMB) and microsatellite instability (MSI).
The test also examines the expression of 64 immune genes in the tumour microenvironment as well as PD-L1 by immunohistochemistry (IHC).
The GO Pathology Workbench is an end-to-end solution that directly integrates with lab sequencers, interprets detected variants and suggests potential therapies or clinical trials for tumours.
Additionally, it produces a comprehensive summary report.
