Cancer + Discovery Panel

Group 30619

Technological advances combined with an improved understanding of the genetic basis of cancer has revolutionized the way cancer can be managed.

Cancer + Discovery Panel

“ Gain insight into clinically actionable mutations and discover new treatment targets with one of the market’s most comprehensive and affordable panels ”

Utilizing a patient’s particular genomic profile, clinicians can now assess the risk of hereditary cancer for the patient and the patient’s family and can also tailor the best treatment options.

BGI’s SENTIS™ Cancer+Discovery provides clinicians with one of the market’s most comprehensive and accurate Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) based testing solution for the identification of clinically actionable mutations and the discovery of novel variants with important functions in cancer. The panel offers whole exome coverage of 689 cancer-related genes and interrogates the most common types of alterations, including SNVs, indels, CNVs and fusions in solid tumors.

Who is suitable for the test?

For a patient who is diagnosed with cancer and needs molecular profiling to guide treatment decisions and clinical management options.
