Oncomine Tumor Mutation Burden (TMB) and Microsatellite Instability (MSI) Test
Test Name: Oncomine Tumor mutation burden (TMB) and Microsatellite Instability (MSI) Test
Components: Paraffin embedded tissue blocks + EDTA Vacutainer (3 ml)
Price: 10500.0 AED
Sample Condition: Tumor tissue + Peripheral Blood
Report Delivery: 2-3 weeks
Method: NGS + Sanger Sequencing
Test Type: Genetics
Doctor: Oncology
Test Department:
Pre Test Information: Oncomine Tumor mutation burden (TMB) + Microsatellite Instability (MSI) Test requires a doctor’s prescription. Prescription is not applicable for surgery and pregnancy cases or people planning to travel abroad.
Test Details: Oncomine Tumor mutation burden (TMB) + Microsatellite Instability (MSI) Test is a test that measures the amount of mutations in a tumor and the level of microsatellite instability. TMB is the number of mutations per megabase of DNA in a tumor, while MSI is the instability of microsatellites, which are short repeated sequences of DNA that are prone to errors during DNA replication. High TMB and MSI levels are associated with increased response to immune checkpoint inhibitors, which are drugs that stimulate the immune system to attack cancer cells. The Oncomine TMB + MSI test can help identify patients who may benefit from immunotherapy treatment and is used in the diagnosis and treatment of various cancers.
