Test Details
The Lung Cancer Panel 2 includes testing for three specific genetic mutations that are commonly found in lung cancer patients: EGFR, ALK1, and ROS1.
EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor): EGFR is a protein that is involved in cell growth and division. Mutations in the EGFR gene can cause cells to grow and divide uncontrollably, leading to the development of cancer. EGFR mutations are found in about 10-15% of lung cancer cases, and patients with these mutations may respond well to targeted therapies such as EGFR inhibitors.
ALK1 (anaplastic lymphoma kinase): ALK1 is another protein that is involved in cell growth and division. ALK1 mutations can also lead to uncontrolled cell growth and the development of cancer. ALK1 mutations are found in about 5% of lung cancer cases, and patients with these mutations may respond well to targeted therapies such as ALK inhibitors.
ROS1 (c-ros oncogene 1): ROS1 is a gene that produces a protein involved in cell signaling. ROS1 mutations can also lead to the development of cancer. ROS1 mutations are found in about 1-2% of lung cancer cases, and patients with these mutations may respond well to targeted therapies such as ROS1 inhibitors.
Testing for these mutations can help guide treatment decisions for lung cancer patients and improve their chances of a successful outcome.
