Why is genomic testing essential in glioblastoma?
WHO 2021 CNS Classification Molecular Mandate
IDH-wildtype status and specific
molecular markers are now required to confirm
a glioblastoma diagnosis. Beyond diagnosis,
genomic testing informs:
- Selection of targeted therapies
- MGMT-based chemotherapeutic decisions
- Eligibility for biomarker-driven trials
- Patient counseling and prognostication
Gliolab provides cutting-edge, CLIA-certified
testing services that enable full genomic
characterization of glioblastoma tumors with
quick turnaround times.
Clinical scenarios where testing should be ordered
- Initial characterization of newly diagnosed glioblastoma
- Identifies glioblastoma molecular subtypes
- Essential for challenging diagnosis
- Standardization of MGMT methylation assessment
- Copy number variations in 29 brain tumor-specific genes
