Genomic Testing
The root cause of tumors can be attributed to the continuous growth of tumor cells. The most important difference between tumor cells and normal cells is that mutant gene (driver gene) that drives tumorigenesis is produced. Therefore, tumors are essentially genetic diseases. Next generation sequencing (NGS) is a high-throughput sequencing method to understand tumors from the gene level, detect and quantify the genetic components that drive tumorigenesis, and then according to the results of testing, targeted drugs and immune drugs can be recommended to patients, prolong the survival time of patients, improve the quality of life, and cure tumors as much as possible.

Cancer is a complicated disease caused by genetic variation. The genetic variation may deprive cells of the normal control function, leading to immortalization and cancer. And targeted drugs work well in cancer therapy, which can kill cancer cells that carry specific genes of variation. However, patients may differ from each other regarding the in vivo genetic variation. As a result, patients vary in the susceptibility and toxic and side effects to the ...
