oncoReveal®
Nexus 21 Gene Panel

The oncoReveal® Nexus 21 Gene Panel is a robust NGS assay designed to interrogate 21 genes relevant to both blood cancers and solid organ cancers. The panel uses proprietary Stem-Loop Inhibition-Mediated amplification (SLIMamp ® ) technology, a tiled amplicon-based library prep chemistry, designed by Pillar’s AI-empowered VersaTile Primer Design tool, for efficient single-tube target enrichment.

Simple NGS Library Prep Workflow

Maintain control of samples and results with single-tube, tiled amplification that can be performed in-house by any NGS lab

Sensitive and Robust Chemistry

Achieve variant detection as low as 1% VAF* even with limited DNA input or poor sample quality

Reduced Fully-Loaded Lab Costs

Improve lab efficiency and reduce “no calls”, repeat testing, and difficult interpretation decisions

*VAF, variant allele frequency
