The required testing will analyze the activity of a group of genes that can affect how a cancer is likely to behave and respond to treatment. Testing results need to show how complex genes are expressed in cells (what their level of activity is), and the role they play in specific cancers including breast, colon, and prostate. 2.Scope. Base Plus Four Year Options. Indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (IDIQ) of cancer testing, with the required tests listed in the chart under "Specific Tasks." The minimal to satisfy this contract will be $1 and a maximum will be $60,000.00 annually. TVHS will only accept tests of equivalent or higher performance to the Oncotype DX test. Equivalent tests must show clinical evidence and at least three years on the market in labs (outside of research purposes). The VA TVHS requires testing that has been reliable for years and will not risk experimenting with newer specialized cancer tests unless evidence guarantees greater benefits to Veterans. The requested tests have been proven to predict the likelihood of cancer recurrence, the likelihood of patient survival and the likelihood of chemotherapy benefit. These unique diagnostic tests can help patients and their doctors make informed, individualized treatment decisions. Results will also help clinicians determine if the patient needs to undergo chemotherapy treatment or not, saving the VA thousands of dollars in treatment costs. 3.Specific Tasks (Evaluation Factors).
