What does this test EGFR Gene Amplification Test By FISH identify?

EGFR Gene Amplification Test By FISH

The EGFR Gene Amplification Test By FISH identifies the amplification of the EGFR (Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor) gene through Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH) technique. EGFR gene amplification is a genetic alteration that results in an increased number of copies of the EGFR gene in a cell.

This test is commonly used in oncology to determine the presence of EGFR gene amplification in cancer cells, particularly in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. EGFR gene amplification can lead to increased expression of EGFR protein, which can drive cancer cell growth and proliferation.

By identifying EGFR gene amplification, healthcare providers can determine the potential responsiveness of the cancer cells to targeted therapies that specifically target EGFR, such as EGFR inhibitors. This information helps in personalized treatment planning and improving patient outcomes.

Why is this test EGFR Gene Amplification Test By FISH taken?

The EGFR Gene Amplification Test By FISH is taken to determine the presence of EGFR gene amplification in a patient's cancer cells. EGFR gene amplification is a genetic alteration that can drive the growth and spread of cancer cells, particularly in certain types of cancer such as non-small cell lung cancer. This test helps doctors to identify patients who may benefit from targeted therapies that specifically target EGFR gene amplification. By identifying patients with EGFR gene amplification, doctors can tailor treatment plans to better target the cancer cells and potentially improve outcomes for the patient.
