PharmDx
PharmDx is a term used by several companies that develop and market diagnostic tests and companion diagnostic tools for personalized medicine. These tests are used to identify specific biomarkers, mutations, or other genetic or molecular characteristics that are associated with a particular disease or condition.
The goal of personalized medicine is to use this information to tailor treatments to the unique needs of individual patients. By identifying patients who are most likely to respond to a particular therapy or who are at high risk of adverse reactions, personalized medicine can help to optimize treatment outcomes and minimize the potential for harm.
PharmDx tests can be used in a variety of clinical settings, including cancer treatment, infectious disease diagnosis, and pharmacogenomics (the study of how genetic variation affects drug response). By providing clinicians with more targeted and precise information about a patient’s disease or condition, PharmDx tests can help to improve the overall quality of care and outcomes for patients.

HercepTest Kits
The human HER2 gene (also known as ERBB2 or NEU) encodes a protein often referred to as HER2 protein or p185HER2. The HER2 protein is a membrane receptor tyrosine kinase with homology to the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR or HER1). The HER2 protein is a normal component expressed by a variety of epithelial cell types.
