What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're facing a colorectal cancer diagnosis and need detailed information about the tumor's genetic makeup. It looks at the tumor tissue itself to identify specific mutations that can influence which treatments are likely to work best. This test helps guide treatment planning by matching therapy choices to the biology of the specific tumor.

What's included in this test?

This panel looks at a broad set of genetic markers within the tumor tissue itself, rather than routine blood chemistry. These markers matter because certain mutations affect how a colorectal tumor is likely to respond to different types of therapy, including targeted drugs. Understanding this genetic profile helps prioritize treatment approaches that are more likely to be effective for that specific tumor.

What happens after I get my results?

Your results will be available in your account, with an explanation of what each finding means. Because this test analyzes tumor biology to guide treatment decisions, the report is meant to be used alongside your ongoing cancer care planning rather than acted on alone. The standard lab report can be downloaded directly from your account for your records. You can also revisit your results anytime and track any related testing over time using the trends feature.

How can I naturally support treatment recovery?

While this test focuses on tumor genetics rather than lifestyle factors, general supportive habits can help your body handle cancer treatment better. Eating a balanced diet with adequate protein, staying hydrated, getting light physical activity when possible, and prioritizing sleep can all support overall strength and resilience. These steps are not a substitute for treatment but can complement it.

When will I get my results?

Results from this panel are typically ready within about 7 days after the lab receives the tumor sample. This timeframe allows for the detailed genetic analysis required to evaluate the multiple markers included in the panel. You'll be notified as soon as your results are posted to your account.

Who should consider this test?

This test is generally considered for individuals who have already been diagnosed with colorectal cancer and are exploring treatment options. It's most useful when detailed tumor genetic information is needed to help prioritize which therapies may be most effective. It is not a screening test for people without a cancer diagnosis.

What symptoms indicate I may need this test?

This test isn't based on symptoms — it's used after a colorectal cancer diagnosis has already been made, typically through imaging or biopsy. If you've been diagnosed and are now working through treatment options, this panel provides genetic detail that can help refine those choices. It's a follow-up step in the care pathway, not a first screening test.

What is tumor genetic profiling and why does it matter?

Tumor genetic profiling looks at the specific mutations present in cancer cells, which can differ from person to person even with the same cancer type. Knowing these mutations matters because some targeted therapies only work on tumors with particular genetic changes, while others may be ineffective or unnecessary. This information helps prioritize treatment choices that align with the tumor's unique biology.

How often should I retest?

This panel is typically run once on a tumor sample at diagnosis or when treatment planning is being reconsidered, rather than on a routine retesting schedule. If your treatment plan changes significantly or a new tumor sample becomes available, retesting may be discussed as part of ongoing care. Check with your treatment team about whether repeat testing fits your specific situation.

What should I do if my results show a significant mutation?

If your results identify a specific mutation, the report will explain what that finding generally means for treatment approaches. Use this information as a starting point for discussing therapy options as part of your broader treatment planning. Bring your results and the report to your next treatment planning conversation so they can be factored into your care.
