Abstract 6830: Xenium in situ analysis and reproducibility study of multiple carcinomas for clinical studies

Abstract 10x Genomics’ Xenium is the newest in situ spatial transcriptomics platform offering sub-cellular resolution in frozen and FFPE tissue sections for a deeper study of cellular mechanisms and interactions. Mapping RNA targets at high specificity with fully customizable assays and quick workflow, it uses rolling circle amplification and interpretation-ready data is available immediately after the run. At BioChain Institute, Inc. (BioChain), we are conducting validation studies for reproducibility of results with the Xenium platform using BioChain’s oncology biospecimen. FFPE tissues from BioChain’s repository were screened by our pathologist for tumor content above 30%. Four carcinoma tissues from Breast, Colon, Lung, and Kidney with high DV200 scores were selected. An array was constructed with these tissues to fit the Xenium slide’s imageable area. Two serial sections were used for the Xenium run per 10x Genomics’ protocol. The Off-the-shelf Human Multi-Tissue and Cancer Panel was used for targeting 377 genes. H Part 1 (Regular Abstracts) ; 2024 Apr 5-10; San Diego, CA.
