What are Some Key Structural Biomarkers in Cancer?
Structural biomarkers are specific structural features that can be used to diagnose or monitor cancer. Important structural biomarkers include:
HER2: Overexpression or amplification of the HER2 gene is associated with certain types of breast cancer. EGFR: Mutations in the EGFR gene are common in non-small cell lung cancer. BRAF: The V600E mutation in the BRAF gene is frequently found in melanoma.
