Understanding Contemporary Molecular Biomarker Testing Rates and Trends for Metastatic NSCLC Among Community Oncologists

Last Updated: Friday, October 22, 2021

A study assessing molecular testing patterns in a large network of US community-based oncology practices found increased testing rates over time and decreases in testing turnaround times. However, rates of testing for all biomarkers still need to improve, as does completion of testing prior to initiation of therapy.
