About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

Personalis Launches NeXT Personal® Dx for Early Access Clinical Use in Residual Disease and Recurrence Detection in Cancer

  • NeXT Personal Dx is an ultra-sensitive test for detecting cancer from a blood sample
  • Clinical data from groundbreaking TRACERx lung cancer study demonstrates significant sensitivity and lead time improvements in detecting cancer

Personalis, Inc. (Nasdaq: PSNL), a leader in advanced genomics for precision oncology, announced today the launch of the Early Access Program for NeXT Personal Dx, a tumor-informed, whole genome-based liquid biopsy laboratory developed test (LDT) for detection of molecular residual disease (MRD) and recurrence in cancer. Designed to help oncologists detect cancer recurrence earlier and aid in treatment decision-making, NeXT Personal Dx is poised to reshape the clinical use of MRD testing by delivering unmatched sensitivity down to the level of one circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) molecule in a million.

“Our ultra-sensitive NeXT Personal Dx test has the ability to reveal previously hidden traces of residual cancer, helping to reduce uncertainty for physicians and patients,” said Chris Hall, President and CEO of Personalis. “We’re excited to work with oncologists through this Early Access Program to detect cancer even earlier and increase confidence in clinical decisions. We have several MDs that have expressed interest and we are already receiving samples.”

NeXT Personal Dx features:

  • Unprecedented sensitivity and specificity: Industry-leading analytical sensitivity, detecting down to ~1 PPM (parts per million) or 1x10-6 tumor fraction and >99.9% analytical specificity
  • Whole genome-based tumor-informed assay: Selects up to 1,800 variants to design a highly sensitive and specific personalized tumor signature for each patient
  • NeXT SENSE™ technology: Proprietary Signal Enhancement and Noise Suppression Engine that, together with the personalized tumor signature, enables ultra-sensitive detection

The NeXT Personal Dx test is currently available through an Early Access Program to a limited number of clinical customers as the company builds clinical evidence and achieves Medicare reimbursement. The EAP will enable oncologists to access NeXT Personal Dx for clinical use, with a focus on lung cancer, breast cancer, and immunotherapy response monitoring.

Personalis also recently announced data from the groundbreaking TRACERx study investigating the use of NeXT Personal in early-stage lung cancer for MRD and recurrence detection. Personalis, along with collaborators from Cancer Research UK’s Cancer Research Horizons, University College London (UCL), and the Francis Crick Institute, presented data at the 2023 European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress showing the ability of NeXT Personal to detect lung cancer more sensitively and identify cancer recurrence with a median lead time of approximately 6 to 11 months ahead of traditional imaging, and significantly longer than previous TRACERx results.

About Personalis, Inc.

At Personalis, we are transforming the active management of cancer through breakthrough personalized testing. We aim to drive a new paradigm for cancer management, guiding care from biopsy through the life of the patient. Our highly sensitive assays combine tumor-and-normal profiling with proprietary algorithms to deliver advanced insights even as cancer evolves over time. Our products are designed to detect minimal residual disease (MRD) and recurrence at the earliest timepoints, enable selection of targeted therapies based on ultra-comprehensive genomic profiling, and enhance biomarker strategy for drug development. Personalis is based in Fremont, California. To learn more, visit www.personalis.com and connect with us on LinkedIn and X (Twitter).
