Why settle for less
when you can have it all?

Our first product, the EuroClonality-NDC assay allows you to detect immunoglobulin (IG) and T-cell receptor (TR) rearrangements and translocations, as well as mutations and copy number alterations in clinically relevant genes for most lymphoproliferative disorders.

EuroClonality-NDC has been designed and developed by the EuroClonality-NGS working group (an independent subdivision of EuroClonality) and validated in a multi-centre international study involving expert clinical and academic laboratories across Europe.

What our customers say

“We incorporated the EuroClonality-NDC assay for routine IG and TCR marker identification for MRD studies about a year ago. We have analysed more than 1000 samples so far and we are very happy with the results.” Prof. Monika Brüggemann from Kiel University, Germany
“The EuroClonality-NDC assay is a really convenient and useful tool for lymphoma testing. In our institution, we started with a pilot research project and after few months we incorporated it into routine use.” Dr Sarasquete and Dr Alcoceba, Salamanca University Hospital, Spain
“The EuroClonality-NDC assay offers and integrated and comprehensive assessment of the most important genomic aberrations required for routine diagnostic haematopathology practice, streamlining the request and reporting process. We can now simultaneously detect mutations, structural aberrations and assess clonality in FFPE specimens, achieving excellent correlation with legacy molecular tests. Since we incorporated the assay into our workflow, EuroClonality-NDC results have facilitated a more robust diagnosis in many cases, and in some cases have enabled diagnoses and distinctions that we were previously unable to render. This includes, for example, identifying emerging lymphoproliferations such as BCL3 translocated lymphomas, and distinguishing between plasmablastic myeloma and plasmablastic lymphoma. The failure rate of the assay is low and regularly obtain viable results on decalcified bone marrow specimens. Overall, we are delighted with the performance of the EuroClonality–NDC assay and thoroughly recommend it to other haematopathologists” Dr Matthew Pugh, Consultant Haematopathologist, Birmingham and Wales, UK

Composition of EuroClonality-NDC assay

The EuroClonality-NDC assay contains a series of genomic regions covering all the IG (including IGH switch regions) and TR genes, intronic regions of some commonly translocated genes, coding regions of clinically-relevant genes and specific regions for copy number variation (CNV) analysis.

Performance of the EuroClonality-NDC assay

The expected metrics for library preparation and hybridisation performance ensure sufficient coverage of all targets to obtain robust and reliable results.

Analytical sensitivity varies according to the type of alterations, from >95% for CNV up to >99% for sequence variants at >4% VAF. Analytical specificity also varies from >97% for CNV and IG/TR rearrangements up to >99% for sequence variants at >4% VAF.

Expected metrics & Analytical Performance

EuroClonality-NDC CNV output for IG, TR and clinically relevant genes in cell line RS4;11

The EuroClonality-NDC assay produces copy number variant (CNV) outputs specifically for IG and TR rearrangements that can be used alongside the Rearrangement results to assess clonality in an orthogonal fashion. These CNV plots are most helpful when the tumour content is at least 40%. There is also an additional output (called ’Onco’) that shows CNV data across a range of clinically relevant genes and genomic regions included in the assay. CNV data have been validated for high molecular weight DNA samples containing more than 40% tumour cells.
