Purpose of the Test
- Identifying specific genetic mutations within tumor cells.
- Guiding treatment decisions regarding Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors (TKIs).
- Evaluating patient eligibility for modern targeted therapies.
This advanced molecular test identifies specific genetic mutations in lung cancer patients, enabling oncologists to select the most effective targeted therapies and personalized treatment plans for improved clinical outcomes.
Scientific name: Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) Mutation Analysis
A specialized molecular test detecting EGFR gene mutations (including Exon 19 and L858R). It guides tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy to ensure optimal treatment response for oncology patients.
