What is a TARGETED THERAPY PANEL (50 genes)?

The Targeted Therapy Panel (50 genes) is a comprehensive genetic test designed to analyze mutations across 50 clinically relevant genes associated with cancer. By identifying specific genetic alterations, this panel helps doctors determine whether a patient may benefit from targeted therapies, which are more precise than conventional treatments. It is particularly useful in guiding personalized cancer care, improving treatment outcomes, and avoiding unnecessary therapies by tailoring interventions to the patient’s unique genetic profile.

Reports: 5 to 6 weeks

FAQs

What happens if the test is positive for mutations?

A positive result indicates actionable mutations, and doctors may recommend targeted therapies or clinical trials tailored to those genetic changes.

What does a negative result mean?

A negative result means no actionable mutations were detected, and standard treatments may be considered instead.

What cancers are covered by this panel?

The panel covers multiple cancers, including lung, breast, colorectal, ovarian, and hematological malignancies, where targeted therapies are available.

Who should undergo this test?

Patients diagnosed with cancer, especially those with advanced or recurrent disease, are recommended for this test to explore targeted therapy options.

Why is this test important?

It helps identify actionable mutations, allowing doctors to prescribe therapies tailored to a patient’s genetic profile, improving treatment outcomes and reducing unnecessary side effects.

Can medications affect the test results?

No, current medications do not alter genetic mutations. However, inform your doctor about ongoing treatments for accurate interpretation.

How often should the test be repeated?

Doctors may repeat the test if cancer progresses or recurs, as new mutations can develop over time.
