## Who this is for
For people comparing this service with their care team. Inclusion is not a recommendation or a finding that it is right for your cancer.

## Ask these first

1. What sample do you need, and must collection be arranged before a biopsy?
2. Which drugs or combinations will you test, and why those?
3. What evidence connects your lab result to outcomes in people with my cancer?
4. What are the total cost, turnaround time and next step if the sample does not work?

A drug response in cells outside the body does not establish that a treatment will work safely in a person. Bring the report back to your oncologist.

## Limits and context
Service details are reported by the linked provider unless noted. Confirm current access, requirements and costs directly. A company profile does not establish clinical benefit.

## Relationships and disclosures
No paid placement. I have no investment, advisory role, paid partnership or other financial relationship with the twelve companies in this initial directory.
