Published justification

There is only one supplier i.e. Guardant, we have to use their kit to run the Guardant assay, there is no alternative. We have formed a partnership with Guardant to provide this service.

Guardant360 CDx utilizes circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) from plasma of peripheral whole blood collected in Streck Cell-Free DNA Blood Collection Tubes (BCTs). Guardant360® CDx is a qualitative custom designed next generation sequencing-based in vitro diagnostic device that uses targeted high throughput hybridization-based capture technology for detection of single nucleotide variants (SNVs), insertions and deletions (indels) in 55 genes, copy number amplifications (CNAs) in two (2) genes, and fusions in four (4) genes.
