An 80-gene tissue test that sorts an early breast cancer into one of three biological types, used alongside MammaPrint.
Agendia describes BluePrint as "an 80-gene molecular subtyping test" that classifies tumours as luminal, HER2-type or basal-type, and states that it "is a laboratory-developed test" which "has not been cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) but has been CE-marked for use in Europe". In the development study 56 per cent of patients in the basal-type group and 50 per cent in the HER2-type group had a pathological complete response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (Krijgsman 2012). Medicare's Palmetto MolDX article A53484 (effective 1 April 2026) states that there is insufficient evidence of clinical utility and that "the BluePrint test is a statutorily excluded test".
Expression of 80 genes in breast tumour tissue classifies the tumour as luminal-type, HER2-type or basal-type, usually reported alongside MammaPrint.
