Foundation Medicine

Overview

This biotechnology company, headquartered in Boston and operating as a subsidiary of Roche, specializes in the development, manufacturing, and sale of genomic profiling assays utilizing next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology. These assays are designed to analyze solid tumors, hematologic malignancies, and sarcomas, enabling the advancement of personalized cancer treatment.

Established in 2010 as a spin-off from MIT and the Broad Institute, its commercialization began with the FoundationOne assay in 2012, followed by FoundationOne Heme in 2013. Collaboration with pharmaceutical partners and data-driven insights through the FoundationCore platform have expanded its impact. The organization also contributes to public research efforts by sharing anonymized genomic data with the National Cancer Institute's Genomic Data Commons.
