Droplex BRAF Mutation Test v2
Detection of the 2 defined mutations within the proto-oncogene BRAF
Features
Thyroid cancer is the most common malignant tumor that occurs in the endocrine system and occurs at a younger age than other malignancies. Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma (PTC) accounts for about 80 % of all thyroid cancers and is characterized by spreading along the lymphatic system. About 30 ~ 60 % of PTC patients have a BRAF mutation, which is found in codon 600. Melanoma, Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) and Colorectal Cancer patients also are guided to screen BRAF mutation for targeted therapy. The CE-IVD certified Droplex BRAF Mutation Test v2 detects 2 defined mutations within the proto-oncogene BRAF using Digital DropletTM Technology. This assay is an in-vitro diagnostic for PTC and is additionally a companion diagnostic which helps identify Melanoma patients who are eligible for tailored treatment.
