Test Details
The FISH – NTRK 2 Gene Rearrangement Assay is a diagnostic test used to detect rearrangements in the NTRK 2 gene. NTRK 2 gene rearrangements can occur in various types of cancers and are associated with the activation of the NTRK 2 gene, which can drive tumor growth. This test uses fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) technology to identify and visualize the rearrangements in the NTRK 2 gene. FISH involves the use of fluorescent probes that bind to specific DNA sequences in the gene of interest. By analyzing the pattern of fluorescence, the presence of gene rearrangements can be determined. The FISH – NTRK 2 Gene Rearrangement Assay is primarily used in the field of oncology to identify patients who may benefit from targeted therapies that specifically target the NTRK 2 gene. These targeted therapies can help inhibit the abnormal signaling pathways caused by the gene rearrangements, leading to improved treatment outcomes for patients with NTRK 2 gene rearrangement-positive cancers.
