Cancer Genomics is a relatively new research area that takes advantage of recent technological advances to study the human genome, meaning our full set of DNA. Genomics is transforming how we study, diagnose and treat cancer.
The GeneStrat® Genomic Test is a blood-based series of ddPCR tests for DNA (EGFR, KRAS, BRAF) and multiplexed assays for RNA variants (EML4-ALK, ROS1, RET). In this report we will u...
Concerted efforts over past decades have established a thorough understanding of the canonical somatic DNA methylation landscape as well as its systematic misregulation across many cancers. H...
