SAN FRANCISCO, May 25, 2021 /PRNewswire/ Invitae Corporation (NYSE: NVTA), a leading medical genetics company, is presenting multiple studies in multiple cancer types at the 2021 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting showing all cancer patients can benefit from germline genetic testing to guide their care. The use of genetic information informs changes in cancer care, increases access to precision therapies and guides screening for high-risk individuals and their family members.
