Cancer Targeted Gene Panel Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor (GIST) Test
Comprehensive Genetic Analysis for Precision Cancer Treatment
The Cancer Targeted Gene Panel for Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor (GIST) represents a breakthrough in molecular diagnostics for cancer management. This sophisticated genetic test provides comprehensive analysis of key mutations that drive the development and progression of gastrointestinal stromal tumors, enabling oncologists to create highly personalized treatment plans based on your tumor’s specific genetic profile.
What This Advanced Test Measures and Detects
Our comprehensive GIST gene panel analyzes multiple critical genetic markers that play essential roles in tumor development and treatment response:
- KIT and PDGFRA Mutations: The primary drivers in approximately 85% of GIST cases
- BRAF Mutations: Important for identifying alternative treatment pathways
- TP53 Alterations: Tumor suppressor gene mutations affecting prognosis
- CD117 (c-KIT) Expression: Key diagnostic marker for GIST identification
- DOG-1 Detection: Highly specific marker for GIST diagnosis
- ERBB2 Analysis: Additional therapeutic target assessment
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test
This comprehensive genetic panel is recommended for individuals experiencing:
- Newly diagnosed gastrointestinal stromal tumors
- Recurrent or metastatic GIST requiring treatment optimization
- Resistance to current tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapies
- Unexplained abdominal pain, gastrointestinal bleeding, or early satiety
- Family history of GIST or related genetic syndromes
- Need for precise treatment selection before starting targeted therapy
Significant Benefits of Genetic Testing for GIST
Undergoing comprehensive genetic analysis provides numerous advantages for your cancer treatment journey:
- Personalized Treatment Selection: Identify the most effective targeted therapies based on your specific mutation profile
- Improved Treatment Outcomes: Higher response rates with properly matched medications
- Reduced Side Effects: Avoid ineffective treatments and unnecessary toxicity
- Prognostic Information: Better understand your cancer’s behavior and progression risk
- Clinical Trial Eligibility: Access to novel treatments based on genetic markers
- Family Risk Assessment: Identify potential hereditary components
Understanding Your Test Results
Your comprehensive genetic report will provide detailed information about:
- Mutation Status: Specific genetic alterations identified in your tumor
- Therapeutic Implications: Recommended targeted therapies based on mutations
- Prognostic Significance: How genetic findings impact treatment expectations
- Clinical Actionability: Clear guidance for next treatment steps
- Interpretation Support: Expert analysis to help you understand complex genetic data
Our genetic counselors and oncology specialists will help interpret your results and discuss their implications for your treatment plan.
