Germline testing and tumor sequencing are both essential for effective cancer treatment. Combining these genomic analyses provides a comprehensive approach for personalized patient care and management strategies.
Area of Science:
- Oncology
- Genomics
- Molecular Diagnostics
Background:
- Personalized cancer therapy relies on understanding a patient's unique genetic makeup.
- Both inherited (germline) and acquired (somatic) mutations influence tumor development and treatment response.
