KPCIRCKwatra Precision Cancer Institute and Research Centre

Laboratory collaboration

Testing and interpretation, with responsibilities defined.

Molecular laboratories can contact KPCIRC to discuss interpretation pathways, reporting questions, clinical-review arrangements and collaboration requirements.

Automated laboratory equipment used for high-throughput DNA processing.

Every collaboration scope identifies

What the laboratory provides

Assays, report formats, specimen information and the data fields supplied.

What KPCIRC reviews

Which interpretation layers and clinical-review steps apply, and what is out of scope.

Who communicates

Who communicates with the treating clinician, and how outputs are delivered.

How information is handled

How patient information is shared, accessed, stored and retained under the approved workflow.

Molecular interpretation through POAS

POAS complements a laboratory’s testing by adding a structured, clinician-oriented read across six layers: variant and specimen context, tumour biology, immunotherapy-associated evidence, therapeutic evidence, trial context and treatment access in India. It does not revalidate the laboratory’s assay unless that is explicitly agreed.

Analytical outputs and evidence curation

Structured interpretation

Findings separated into evidence-supported associations, hypotheses and uncertain results.

Evidence curation

Dated, source-traceable evidence statements with conflicting data shown.

Trial feasibility

Criteria mapped as potentially satisfied, contradicted or unknown.
