Pre Test Information
Oncomine Tumor mutation Burden (TMB) can be done with 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) is a genomic biomarker that measures the number of somatic mutations within the coding region of a tumor genome. It is a quantitative measure of the number of mutations that a tumor has accumulated, which is often associated with the immune response to the tumor.
A high TMB indicates a high mutation rate, which may lead to the production of neoantigens that can be recognized by the immune system. TMB is a promising biomarker for predicting response to immunotherapy and has been shown to be a better predictor of response than PD-L1 expression in some cases.
The Oncomine TMB assay is a next-generation sequencing-based assay that provides a standardized, accurate, and reproducible measurement of TMB across multiple tumor types.
