Biomarkers, Cancer Therapy & Clinical Research

Advances of Biomarker testing

Biomarker testing is a group of tests which aims to look into the molecular signs of health so that doctors can plan the best care regimen. Biomarker testing can also be called as genetic testing or biomarkers testing.  Biomarkers, a foundation of precision oncology, are very important in management of breast cancer, gastro-esophageal cancer and non-small cell lung cancer. Testing practices are intensely deliberated, influencing diagnostic quality and affecting pathologists, oncologists and patients.

The advances in biomarker testing are mainly in the fields of genetic testing, cancers and other diseases in their diagnosis, treatment and imaging. In silico biomarkers, microRNA biomarkers and several other clinical biomarkers have evolved in the recent researches and have broadened the path for biomarker testing.
