When it comes to cancer treatment, “one size fits all” doesn’t necessarily fit all.
For that reason, Baylor Genetics offers a wide range of clinically validated molecular approaches to accommodate unique clinical situations and overcome specimen limitations. Baylor Genetics also understands that cancer treatments are continuously evolving, which is why we developed the ClariFind Comprehensive DNA Panel. ClariFind provides cancer patients with personalized treatment options for drug therapies and clinical trials. Each patient’s case is thoroughly reviewed by board-certified clinical experts to aid in optimizing patient care. Most importantly, our experts are available for clinical consultation to serve as partners throughout your patient’s journey.
