The MammaPrint FFPE NGS kit is a qualitative in vitro diagnostic test for use by clinical laboratories using target enrichment Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology for gene expression profiling of the 70-gene MammaPrint Breast Cancer signature on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) breast cancer tissue samples. The test is used to assess a patient's risk to develop distant metastasis within 5 years and up to 10 years after diagnosis. The MammaPrint FFPE NGS kit is performed for breast cancer patients with Stage I or Stage II disease, with tumor size ≤ 5.0 cm and lymph node negative. The test result is indicated for use by physicians as a prognostic marker only, along with other clinicopathological factors.

The MammaPrint FFPE NGS kit is a sequencing-based gene expression analysis of a tumor. The analysis is based on several processes: isolation of RNA from FFPE breast cancer tissue sections; library preparation of RNA resulting in cDNA adapter-ligated sequences; enrichment of the 70 genes (capture step); sequencing of the enriched library in the flow cell and data acquisition; MammaPrint Index calculation of the risk classification in breast cancer patients. Data analysis is performed according to the MammaPrint FFPE NGS algorithm (resulting in MammaPrint Index or MPI). This algorithm was designed and programmed by Agendia and incorporated into a proprietary software program, which loads the FASTQ data file. The software loads file, performs quality control checks and determines the molecular profile of the sample by calculating the MammaPrint index by determining the correlation of the sample's 70 gene expression profile to the mean expression profiles of tumors with a known good and poor outcome.

The MammaPrint service is a microarray-based gene expression analysis of a tumor. The analysis is based on several processes: isolation of RNA from formalin-fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) tumor tissue sections, DNase treatment of isolated RNA, amplification DNase treated RNA resulting in cDNA, labeling and purification of amplified cDNA, hybridization of the diagnostic microarray, scanning the MammaPrint microarray and data acquisition (Feature Extraction), calculation and determination of the risk of recurrence in breast cancer patients.
