Role of genomic sequencing in cancer treatment
Role of genomic sequencing in cancer treatment has opened new avenues for personalized approaches to cancer treatment. It is defined as a Precision Oncology approach
In the era of genomic medicine, cancer is termed as multifactorial disease condition, which is driven by mutation or change in genetic material, as well as is influenced by environmental determinants. The genetic information in a human cell, when mutated leads to uncontrolled cell growth; hence, is a crucial factor to be determined at an early stage for cancer diagnosis.
