The NextGen BRCA Somatic Mutation Analysis test identifies acquired BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations present in tumour cells, which can influence treatment response, especially to targeted therapies like PARP inhibitors. Metropolis Healthcare performs this test using advanced next-generation sequencing to ensure highly accurate detection of somatic genetic changes. Understanding somatic BRCA mutations helps clinicians personalize cancer treatment and improve outcomes. This test is crucial for patients with cancers where tumour genomic profiling guides therapy decisions.
