Cancer Sequencing Methods
NGS methods enable cancer researchers to perform whole-genome studies, targeted gene profiling, tumor-normal comparisons, and more. NGS also offers the sensitivity to detect rare somatic variants, tumor subclones, and circulating DNA fragments.
Cancer Immunotherapy Research
Immuno-oncology is an emerging field that has taken great strides in the fight against cancer, bolstered by a refined understanding of how tumors evade the natural immune response. Research into the mechanisms tumors use to inhibit the immune response have led to promising therapeutic targets.
Cancer Epigenetics
Changes in gene activation or gene silencing can impact the rate of cancer progression. Studying the epigenetic changes that influence gene expression can provide insight into important tumorigenic pathways.
Chromosomal Abnormalities
Genomic instability and chromosomal abnormalities are common features of cancer. Understanding these structural aberrations can inform studies of cancer etiology.
Products and Services
Illumina offers various NGS and microarray products and services to support cancer genomics research.
