In response to continued advances in genomic technology and genetic medicine, the
National Institutes of Health
(NIH) has developed the Genetic Testing Registry (GTR), a free online resource, to provide physicians, researchers and patients with detailed and accurate information about genetic and genomic tests. Comprehensive scientific and clinical information about the Oncotype DX
breast cancer test is now incorporated in the GTR database, representing
Genomic Health's
leadership in applying genomic information to make cancer care smarter.
