How does genome sequencing work?

  1. Should you be diagnosed with cancer, a biopsy is taken of your tumor. Tumor tissue and blood are isolated and extracted and your DNA is sequenced in TGen’s laboratories.
  2. Using highly sophisticated equipment, the sequenced genetic profile is scanned for abnormalities that dictate the tumor functions.
  3. The abnormalities are analyzed to determine whether they match known mutations that may have responded to particular therapies and may uncover a potential treatment option not previously considered.
  4. If there’s a match, doctors may be able to use the findings to suggest specific treatments that have been used in the past to target the same mutations.
