Overview

NeoThetis is a non-invasive liquid biopsy test designed to support precision oncology by analysing circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) from a simple blood sample. It provides a comprehensive genomic profile of a patient’s tumour without the need for invasive tissue biopsy, making it particularly valuable when tumour tissue is unavailable, insufficient, or when repeated sampling is required during disease progression.

The test detects clinically actionable genetic alterations—including single nucleotide variants (SNVs), insertions and deletions (INDELs), copy number amplifications (CNAs), and rearrangements—that drive cancer development and influence response to targeted therapies. In addition, NeoThetis evaluates key immunotherapy biomarkers such as microsatellite instability (MSI) across all panels, while the Pan-Cancer Plus panel also assesses blood tumour mutational burden (bTMB), enabling identification of patients who may benefit from immune checkpoint inhibitors.

NeoThetis is available as a portfolio of panels tailored to different clinical needs. These include comprehensive pan-cancer panels for broad genomic profiling, as well as cancer-specific panels focused on clinically relevant genes for particular tumour types. This flexible panel design allows clinicians to select the most appropriate level of analysis depending on the clinical context, whether for initial therapy selection or treatment re-evaluation.

By combining genomic alteration detection with immunotherapy biomarkers, NeoThetis supports informed treatment decisions, including targeted therapies and immunotherapy options. It is particularly useful both at diagnosis and during disease progression, enabling monitoring of tumour evolution and identification of resistance mechanisms.

Using high-sensitivity next-generation sequencing (NGS), NeoThetis captures tumour heterogeneity across primary and metastatic sites, providing a more comprehensive view of the disease compared to single-site tissue biopsy. With fast turnaround times and clinically actionable insights linked to approved therapies and clinical trials, NeoThetis enables timely, evidence-based decisions to optimise patient outcomes.

NeoThetis genetic tests

NeoThetis includes liquid biopsy panels designed to identify clinically actionable genetic alterations and immunotherapy biomarkers from circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA). NeoThetis panels include:

  • 2 Pan-Cancer panels: Pan-Cancer Plus (222 genes) and Pan-Cancer (80 genes)
  • 7 cancer-specific panels: Breast & Gynaecological, Colorectal, Gastric, Melanoma, Lung (NSCLC), Prostate, Pancreatic
  • testing of immunotherapy biomarkers MSI (all panels) and bTMB (Pan-Cancer Plus panel)

Panel size varies depending on the selected test, ranging from targeted gene sets to extended genomic coverage for comprehensive tumour profiling.
