Grant Activity:
Improving genomic testing rates for inoperable lung cancer patients
Purpose:
Most lung cancer patients are diagnosed with advanced disease. Many patients undergo bronchoscopy instead of surgery to obtain cancer tissue to make a formal diagnosis and to perform genomic testing. This is to identify therapies that will be the most effective. This application addresses a current clinical problem, that for many patients the tumour biopsy does not yield sufficient tissue for genomic testing, denying the patient's chance to receive the optimum treatment for their cancer.
