NGS is still perceived as a complex, hard to implement and validate method that requires highly experienced people. Outsourcing next-generation sequencing (NGS) testing could be an option to...
Increasing evidence suggests that targeted sequencing of cell free DNA (cfDNA) can provide a comprehensive molecular portrait of solid tumors. However, the concordance between tissue and cfD...
The development of molecular targeted therapy is one of the breakthroughs in oncology field. Molecular profiling of the tumor becomes mandatory in the routine clinical practice to select the...
In the past years, next-generation sequencing has revolutionized the way testing is done in the field of clinical oncology research. Parallel testing of genomic markers in tissue biopsies as...
My laboratory at the Garvan Institute operates an ISO 15189 and NATA accredited laboratory for testing of patients using whole genome and whole exome sequencing, as well as gene panel testin...
NSCLC in Asia has high prevalence of EGFR Mutation and this is the case in Malaysia as well. This presentation will provide Malaysia’s approach in implementation of NGS in their 1st li...
