@cindylb Good luck to you and your husband in getting answers.

This is a link to the web site for Foundation One...

https://www.foundationmedicine.lt/content/dam/rfm/lt_LT/Documents/Foundation%20Medicine%20Sample%20Report.pdf

The “Sample” report shown is very similar to that which came back from their study of my wife’s lung biopsy. It took 5 weeks to get the results...so be patient.

My suggestion is that you have your husband’s oncologist consider them as a qualified resource.

Their recommended treatment strategy (in my wife’s case) was implemented by our Mayo oncologist for her in December of 2016.

She is still on the planet, and living a pretty normal life!

Thank you for the information. We have already done the Foundation Testing via our cancer center here in Colorado at CU Medical Center and again, no results, except they found one element of the test that suggested lung cancer vs. upper GI but not enough to recommend treating for lung cancer. It didn't offer any clear answers either. So on we go. So pleased to hear your wife is still here fighting and living as best she can. Hugs.
