In this roundtable discussion presented by AONN+ and supported by Exact Sciences, a panel of experts discuss the critical role of nurse navigators in educating cancer patients about genomic testing and how to interpret the results.
Genetics testing can yield important insights for patients with cancer, and navigators are optimally positioned to help patients get appropriate testing.
Dr Andrey Antov sees much potential for navigators when it comes to applying genetic and genomic testing to cancer care.
Dr Andrey Antov recognizes how important the role of the navigator is in dealing with genetic and genomic testing, as the navigator often needs to help the patient gain access to the appropriate therapy, work with different stakeholders, monitor data, and more.
Dr Andrey Antov provides an overview of the role of Jackson Laboratory in the field of cancer genetic testing and in the education of nurses and navigators who co-manage patients at high risk or with a diagnosis of cancer.
Dr Andrey Antov muses on the evolution of genomics and how it could potentially impact targeted therapies and cancer care.
Dr Andrey Antov identifies situations in which people may want to consider genetic testing.
Dr Andrey Antov provides a useful metaphor to explain how genetic testing and genomic testing differ from one another and the purpose behind each type of testing.
Dr Andrey Antov notes that there is often confusion around genetic and genomic testing, due in part to a lack of genetic counselors, high costs, and the rate of adoption of new technologies.
