U.S. Cancer Center to Use IntegraGen's MERCURY™ Cloud-Based Tool for Oncology Sequencing Data Interpretation and Reporting
March 26, 2020 at 01:00 pm EDT
IntegraGen announced Dana-Farber Cancer Institute will utilize the company’s MERCURY™ cloud-based software as part of their analysis and reporting process for sequencing data obtained from tumors of cancer patients. Dana-Farber plans to utilize MERCURY to assist in the analysis of sequencing data obtained from small and large targeted gene sequencing panels as well as data derived from whole exome and genome sequencing. MERCURY is a user-friendly genomic interpretation tool for oncology designed to assist pathologists and oncologists to rapidly transform raw data obtained via high-throughput sequencing into a clinical molecular report for clinical and research use. The cloud-based tool minimizes the complexity, time and cost associated with the clinical interpretation and identification of variants that may be of interest in the therapeutic management of patients.
