The Cancer Transcriptome Atlas (CTA) is designed for comprehensive profiling of the tumor biology, tumor microenvironment, and the immune response. It covers the RNA expression of over 1,800 genes simultaneously with spatial resolution in any region of interest from a single tissue section.
The CTA assay is compatible with RNAscope® and antibody visualization markers. It can also be supplemented with up to 60 additional targets of interest.
- Extensive coverage of the immune response, tissue microenvironment, tumor biology, and genes from clinically relevant genes sets such as tumor inflammation
- Spatial measurement of single cell signatures with high sensitivity and dynamic range
- Inclusion of genes for the Tumor Inflammation Signature, PAM50 and other clinical signatures
- Over 100 pathways to explore all aspects of cancer and tumor biology
