Genetic Cancer Testing also known as Companion Diagnostics (CDx) are specialized medical tests designed to identify patients who are most likely to benefit from a specific drug or therapy. These tests help guide treatment decisions by detecting biomarkers (genetic mutations or proteins) in a person’s body. These biomarkers provide information about a person’s disease, particularly cancer, by revealing genetic mutations, protein expressions, or other gene changes, that influence how they respond to certain medications, particularly in cancer treatment.

At Biologix Laboratories, customer satisfaction comes first. We provide accurate and accessible Cancer Genetics testing (CDx) to support the right treatment choices. Our modern, eco-friendly lab ensures high-quality testing for better patient care. Our team ensures seamless, dependable and precise diagnostics improving healthcare results.
