Worldwide Clinical Trials

DECEMBER 12, 2022

Genetic testing provides patients with a diagnosis for their illness, helps patients and family members to understand risks of developing new diseases, and can be used to support clinical trial advancement. What are the benefits and limitations to using genetic testing? It is important to consider the type of testing performed (e.g.,
