Caris GPSai
Use
Caris GPSai analyzes genomic and transcriptomic data to match a tumor’s molecular signature to one or more of 90 cancer categories. It is designed to aid oncologists in managing Cancer of Unknown Primary (CUP) or cases with atypical clinical presentation or clinical ambiguity. The test provides insights into the tissue of origin, informing treatment planning and potentially improving diagnostic accuracy for cancers with clinical ambiguity.

Limitations
The accuracy of the Caris GPSai test is validated using neural networks trained on an expansive database, but it heavily relies on the quality of genomic data obtained. Changes in tumor biomarker characteristics over time due to disease progression and therapy might affect the results. Older specimens may not reflect current disease status, particularly due to the influence of prior treatments.
