A powerful tool against cancer
A cancer diagnosis is stressful and overwhelming. We are here to help.
Genetic testing and cancer
Half of all men and one-third of all women in the U.S. will develop cancer during their lifetime.
In many cases, a person’s genetics have made him or her more susceptible to cancer and, as a result, he or she may respond differently to therapies, benefit from more aggressive treatment or take steps to avoid getting cancer again in the future.
Understanding your genes can help guide you and your doctor to the most effective treatments, bringing you one step closer to beating cancer and then staying healthy in the long run.
1 in 8 cancer patients has a genetic mutation passed from parent to child
An additional option: Personalized medication management
Almost everyone has a genetic variation that makes them unable to process certain medications as intended. Pharmacogenetic testing can help your doctor identify the right medication and dosage for your particular body.
