Pillar Biosciences

As the leader in Decision Medicine™, Pillar’s technology platform drives significantly more efficient and accessible NGS testing with industry-leading accuracy and sensitivity. Pillar’s extensive portfolio applies across the entire patient journey, from profiling to therapy selection and monitoring, generating actionable insights to get patients on the right therapy faster In conjunction with the SLIMamp assay technology, Pillar Biosciences has an informatics pipeline called the Pillar Variant Analysis Toolkit (PiVAT) that is not only highly accurate, enabling somatic variant calls down to 1% allele frequency without use of Unique Identifiers (UIDs), but also fast and efficient, returning valuable sample data quickly. For higher-sensitivity applications such as cell-free DNA analyses, Pillar Biosciences has developed a dedicated assay technology for cell-free DNA that uses UID methodology, to work with the PiVAT pipeline to drive sensitivity down to 0.1%-0.2%.
