23andMe联合20个肺癌倡导组织宣布一项新研究，旨在推进肺癌研究。
The focus of the Lung Cancer Genetics Study is to better understand the genetics of people with lung cancer in order to improve detection, risk reduction, and care. While recent developments in tumor genetic testing and targeted therapies have provided hope and years of survival to many lung cancer patients, lung cancer remains the number one cause of cancer deaths in both men and women in the United States. Yet, much remains unknown about the disease and its causes.
肺癌遗传学研究的重点是更好地了解肺癌患者的遗传学，以改善检测、降低风险和护理。尽管肿瘤基因检测和靶向疗法的最新发展为许多肺癌患者提供了希望和多年的生存期，但肺癌仍然是美国男性和女性癌症死亡的头号原因。然而，关于这种疾病及其病因还有很多未知数。
