Most cancer biopsies are currently preserved using a century-old method called FFPE or Formalin Fixed Paraffin Embedded, which means; dipped in formaldehyde and then preserved in wax. This process has been used to accurately diagnose and stage cancer patients for over 100 years, but it kills the living cells and damages the DNA and RNA. This is important because many newer advanced tests rely on high quality tissue for testing and treatment recommendations and FFPE isn't accepted for many of these tests.
Speak with your doctor about your biopsy preservation options and how those options may affect your future options for advanced testing and treatments should they become necessary in your cancer journey.
Not every test or treatment requires living tissue, and preservation does not guarantee eligibility for specific treatments or clinical trials. But preserving viable cells before they're lost may create additional possibilities.
