It’s stories like AJ’s that inspire us to keep innovating in precision medicine, and continue expanding access to our technology so that all patients may benefit.
At Illumina, we are committed to leveraging the power of genomics to drive personalized medicine and positively impact human health. Illumina invests deeply in research and is developing in vitro diagnostic (IVD) tests that have the potential to improve the patient’s therapy journey and outcomes. The ultimate goal is for these tests to become accessible to all.
February 4 is World Cancer Day, an opportunity to honor cancer patients and survivors as well as recognize the efforts of researchers, oncologists, pathologists, and other professionals around the world working to transform testing and care to ultimately put an end to cancer.
We are touched by AJ’s story and want to enable many other cancer patients to have similar stories. Share your stories with us on Twitter using the hashtag #WorldCancerDay and #CloseTheCareGap.

AJ was not tested using an Illumina diagnostic test. He is sharing his story as a testimonial of the potential benefits of biomarker testing though comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP). One person’s experience is not predictive of results in other CGP cases, which may differ based on a variety of factors. Results in other cases may vary.
