CENTOGENE's multiomic approach integrates different data sets (omics) in a single test. In leveraging the most holistic insights, multiomics acts as a unique and highly effective tool for the early diagnosis of rare and neurodenegerative diseases. Empowering physicians to provide timely interventions and personalized treatments, a multiomic approach ultimately improves patient outcomes and alleviates the burdens of prolonged diagnostic odysseys.

Why Multiomics Matters?
Understanding Diseases Holistically
Integrated genomic, biochemical, and transcriptomic analysis facilitates the decision on the pathogenicity of clinical variants, leading to a higher diagnostic yield
Shortening Patients' Diagnostic Journeys
Multiomics enables physicians to avoid stepwise testing by integrating DNA and RNA sequencing with biochemical testing, accelerating diagnoses
Revolutionizing Precision Medicine
A multidimensional approach provides a complete clinical picture – enabling a deeper understanding of disease complexities and leading to personalized treatments
Which Types of Omics Are Included in CENTOGENE's Multiomic Offering?
Phenomics
Phenomics examines the complete set of observable symptoms and characteristics to understand their relationship with genetics and the environment. Using Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) terms, we are able to classify disease indicators, susceptibility to diseases, and response to treatments.
Genomics
Genomics is the foundation that examines the genome to reveal inherited traits, disease risks, and genetic factors that result in disease. By using DNA sequencing, we are ale to cover the majority of disease causing variants.
NEW Transcriptomics
Transcriptomics captures a snapshot of the genes that are actively expressed in a given tissue (e.g. blood) at a particular time. Using RNA sequencing, we are able to identify the impact of splice variants.
Metabolomics
Metabolomics examines a huge set of metabolites to capture a snapshot of cellular metabolism and providing information about the metabolic pathways. Using biochemical testing, we are able to measure and identify biomarkers of diseases.
Experience the Superior Multiomic Offering With Transcriptomics
Join the precision medicine revolution today to deliver life-changing answers.
Transcriptomics focuses on the RNA, the genetic molecule that acts as a copy or transcript of the DNA. By analyzing the transcriptome, we are able to see the mirrored instructions that have been encoded in the DNA, such as when and where a gene is functioning.
Advanced RNA sequencing technology allows us to qualify the impact of potential splicing variants as changes in the composition of genetic information in our medical interpretation. For this purpose, variants in expressed genes that could impact splicing are analyzed and functionally evaluated in the RNA data, powered by AI. Our medical experts use this information in combination with the clinical picture of the patient to provide an advanced and more precise variant classification. Our RNA sequencing can elucidate undiagnosed genetic diseases and clarify the impact of variants of uncertain significance (VUS).

How Transcriptomics Revolutionizes Rare Disease Diagnostics
What Is Included in CENTOGENE's Single-Step Multiomic Portfolio?
Transcriptomics CentoGenome MOx 2.0
Our Whole Genome Sequencing covers deep intronic and splicing regions and includes comprehensive genomic analysis (e.g., SV, repeat expansion), capturing >7,000 rare diseases, including >1,400 Inherited Metabolic Disorders.
CentoGenome MOx 2.0 includes RNA analysis of clinically relevant variants that affect splicing. For identified variants, additional enzyme activity testing and metabolic biomarker measurements are performed by an automated reflex step within the capabilities of our biochemical portfolio.
Our Whole Exome Sequencing turns the evaluation of exonic regions as well as splicing regions (+/- 10 bp) into a clear understanding of disease-causing variants in >7,000 rare diseases, including >1,400 Inherited Metabolic Disorders.
CentoXome MOx 2.0 includes RNA analysis of clinically relevant variants that affect splicing. For identified variants, additional enzyme activity testing and metabolic biomarker measurements are performed by an automated reflex step within the capabilities of our biochemical portfolio.
In the multiomic testing environment, biochemical testing evaluates the impact of potentially clinically relevant variants (VUS, LP, P) in genes for the following analytes. Biomarkers serve as measurable indicators of pathological processes. This critical information helps clinicians and geneticists in determining the pathogenicity of these variants and making more informed clinical decisions.

Multiomics is a game-changer for physicians, providing a powerful and multidimensional perspective of each patient. By integrating diverse omics data, including genomics, transcriptomics, and biochemical testing, we gain deeper insights into rare and neurodegenerative diseases. It uncovers hidden insights that single-data approaches often overlook, empowering us to make more informed and precise diagnostic decisions.
Real-World Case Studies Reveal the Impact of Our Multiomic Approach
A genetic test alone may not be able to provide the information needed for a final diagnosis. With a comprehensive view of each patient's biology, we uncover valuable insights for accurate diagnosis and tailored treatment strategies. Discover the transformative potential of our multiomic solution and revolutionize patient care.
