COBAS EGFR Mutation Analysis Studies near me in Patna

The COBAS EGFR Mutation Analysis Studies is a molecular test used to detect mutations in the EGFR (Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor) gene, which are commonly found in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Certain EGFR mutations can predict how well a patient will respond to targeted EGFR inhibitor therapies. This test uses the COBAS®real-time PCR platform, which is designed to identify specific mutations in exons 18, 19, 20, and 21 of the EGFR gene. These include exon 19 deletions, L858R (exon 21), T790M (exon 20), and other clinically relevant variants. By identifying these mutations, the test helps doctors choose the most effective treatment and monitor resistance to therapy, particularly in patients with advanced or metastatic NSCLC.

Note: One representative block of the tumor is required. However, 1-4 representative blocks of tumors are acceptable.
