It is not a treatment, but a molecular finding used in cancer diagnosis and tumor profiling. It is most commonly identified through tumor genomic testing on biopsy or surgical specimens. Clinicians use it to help classify cancers, refine prognosis in some settings, and support treatment planning."}
