What is BRCA1 & BRCA2 Somatic Mutation Testing?
The BRCA1 & BRCA2 Somatic Mutation Test detects mutations that occur in tumor cells (not inherited) in the BRCA genes. These genes play a key role in DNA repair. Mutations can lead to uncontrolled cell growth and cancer. Identifying these mutations helps in selecting targeted therapies such as PARP inhibitors and improves personalized cancer treatment.
Who should take this test?
- Patients diagnosed with breast or ovarian cancer.
- Individuals with advanced or metastatic cancers.
- Patients being evaluated for targeted cancer therapy.
- Cases where treatment planning requires genetic profiling.
- Doctor-advised oncology testing.
