A recent publication of a large prospective study1 demonstrates the Idylla™ EGFR Mutation Test leads to:

  1. Significant reduction in time-to-treatment by 48% or on average 16.8 days faster than NGS
  2. Improved strategic treatment decisions within a multidisciplinary team

 

The study was performed on 238 samples which were tested both using a next generation sequencing (NGS) panel and the Idylla™ EGFR Mutation Test. The study showed:

  • Concordance of 98.7% between the Idylla™ EGFR Mutation Test and the NGS panel
  • Turnaround time was faster for the Idylla™ EGFR Mutation Test by an average of 12.4 days
  • In the EGFR positive cohort, the Idylla™ EGFR Mutation Test led to a 48% reduction and on average 16.8 days faster time-to-treatment

Furthermore, the study concludes that the Idylla™ EGFR Mutation Test could contribute to overall time and cost savings for patients if testing is implemented in a stepwise manner:

Such first-line use of Idylla™ EGFR Mutation Test allows to obtain EGFR test results in the same time frame as the PD-L1 IHC test results, which is important as EGFR positivity may be a contra-indication for PD-1/PD-L1 therapy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)2.

The impact of the rapid Idylla™ EGFR Mutation Test on turnaround times is in line with previous studies3 published, concluding that Idylla™ testing early on may contribute to improving strategic treatment decisions in a multidisciplinary team for patients with NSCLC by the early screening of EGFR mutations.
