Hi Irene,

I hope the above link to TMD helps Irene. The appropriate contacts should be there for the lab. If not, let me know and I will look it up for you. And no, I do not know any other lab who does the pTEN test at this point. However, perhaps Michelle knows of some others as I know she researched pTEN a lot also.

Dr. Neil Spector from GSK informed me of TMD. Dr. Bacus, who owns TMD, does a lot of the testing for clincial trials on the new drugs like Lapatinib for GSK. If you notice, Dr. Bacus and Spector are often joint authors in many of the GSK research Lapatinib articles.

Good luck.

Robin
