👥Biography 个人简介

David Fabrizio, PhD is Vice President of Clinical Development and Medical Affairs at Foundation Medicine, where he has been instrumental in developing and validating FoundationOne CDx as the first FDA-approved comprehensive genomic profiling assay covering all four major biomarker categories: gene alterations, MSI, TMB, and genomic loss of heterozygosity (gLOH). He led the analytical and clinical validation studies that enabled FDA approval of FoundationOne CDx as a companion diagnostic for multiple targeted therapies and as the reference method for TMB-high determination across solid tumors. Fabrizio's work on harmonizing TMB measurement across platforms has been central to the Blueprint TMB harmonization effort, and he has published extensively on MSI detection concordance between PCR-based and NGS-based methods. His scientific contributions have directly shaped how precision oncology biomarkers are standardized and integrated into clinical decision-making globally.

🎓Key Contributions 主要贡献

FoundationOne CDx FDA Approval as Pan-Tumor CGP Companion Diagnostic

Led the clinical and analytical validation program enabling FDA approval of FoundationOne CDx as the first pan-tumor comprehensive genomic profiling companion diagnostic, simultaneously approved as a companion diagnostic for multiple targeted therapies and as a reference method for TMB-high determination.

TMB Harmonization across NGS Platforms

Spearheaded the Friends of Cancer Research TMB Harmonization Project, establishing analytical concordance standards and minimum requirements for TMB reporting across different NGS platforms to enable cross-trial comparability and consistent clinical application.

MSI Detection by CGP vs. PCR Concordance

Demonstrated high concordance between MSI detection by comprehensive genomic profiling and standard PCR/IHC methods across thousands of tumor samples, validating NGS-based MSI assessment as a reliable alternative to standard-of-care testing.
