Hi

Has anyone been tested for the above gene mutation?

I have read an article which says 40% of ER+ breast cancers have this mutation.

Is this done along with the generic gene tests e. G Bcr1 and Bcr2 or is it a separate test?

Thanks

Hi 

I’ve had this test which was a general blood test think it was called Garden 360 and it picked up three mutations of my cancer. I am now in a different targeted therapy Alpelicib and Fulvestrant. Scan

good luck
