ATGCATGCATG ATGCATGCATG TGCA ATGCATG ATGCATGCATGA For Which of My Patients Should I Order the StrandAdvantage Test? Patients with solid tumors, especially those with breast, lung, and colon cancers for whom individual, tissue specific panels are available. Prior to starting therapy, as part of your molecular work-up. Patients who have failed first-line therapy, or have a metastatic presentation. During the neoadjuvant period and soon after surgery. Benefits of Using Strand s NGS-Based Multi-Gene Tests vs. Single Gene Tests Compared to single gene testing approaches, Strand s NGS-based multi-gene testing allows : Short TAT to start therapy, including first-line options. Testing of many genes concurrently (simultaneous identification of a driver mutation, as well as a secondary mutation in the gene). Identification of resistance to targeted therapy for the driver gene, thus helping predict the contraindications of a targeted drug. Targeting tumors of different origins with the same driver mutations, using a single drug. Testing a tumor for mutations and genes other than the ones typically associated with that tumor for more information. Determining with very high sensitivity extremely subtle mutations that are unique to the tumor. Capturing tumor heterogeneity with high sensitivity, often missed with other molecular testing approaches. We tested your tumor sample and looked at it under the microscope. The morphology of the tumor suggests the tumor may be of subtype X. IHC Evolution of Cancer Diagnostics s Histopathology MSI Biopsy Resection Specimen FISH NGS targeted panels Cytogenetics Single gene ATGCATGC Oncologists change in approach to cancer diagnosis and therapy selection The StrandAdvantage test indicates that your tumor contains actionable mutations which uniquely qualifies you for an alternate targeted drug therapy. Over the years, rapid advances in cancer diagnostic technology has enabled oncologists to obtain deeper insights about the patients tumor and genetics, thereby helping make informed and actionable therapy decisions for them.
