Biomarker testing may unlock information about what’s driving your cancer

Not all lung cancer is the same. Some tumors have specific genetic “drivers” called biomarkers that cause your cancer to grow and spread. Biomarker testing identifies these drivers and may unlock information about your specific type of lung cancer, which can help you and your doctor make more informed treatment decisions.

Knowing your biomarkers isn’t just helpful for guiding treatment. Having that information can also give you a more complete picture of your diagnosis. It’s important to talk to your doctor about getting biomarker testing done as soon as possible after diagnosis so that you can get the most appropriate care for your unique type of lung cancer.
