What is OncoHRD ® (Tissue biopsy) A Next Generation Assistive HRD Test?

This tissue biopsy test assesses Homologous Recombination Deficiency (HRD), a genetic signature in cancer cells that indicates a weakness in their DNA repair pathways. Understanding HRD status is crucial for selecting specific targeted therapies.

Why is this test important?

Identifying HRD is clinically significant for patients with certain cancers, as it can predict responsiveness to specific treatments like PARP inhibitors. This information empowers oncologists to tailor treatment strategies for better patient outcomes.

How to Prepare

This test requires a tissue sample, typically obtained during a biopsy procedure. Your healthcare provider will give you specific instructions regarding the biopsy.
