Why Protean exists

Protean FusionPlus detects gene fusions that can drive cancer, including ALK, ROS1, NTRK, and RET fusions. It is for patients whose tumors may carry these specific mutations and whose care teams want to find out. Identifying a fusion matters because it names the specific change driving the cancer, giving patients and doctors concrete information to weigh in treatment decisions.
