Abstract | The ability of next-generation sequencing (NGS) to comprehensively assess the molecular profile of a tumor specimen has transformed the clinical testing landscape in oncology. Accordingly, recent years have seen broad uptake of clinical NGS to inform cancer patient management. However, significant challenges remain. The annotation and clinical interpretation of variants identified by NGS tests often require rigorous review and may vary between laboratories. While a clearer regulatory path has emerged, reimbursement for NGS tests remains a subject of continuing debate. Basket clinical studies such as the National Cancer Institute Molecular Analysis of Therapy Choice are evaluating the degree to which matching of a targeted therapy to tumor molecular profile by NGS can be applied independently of tissue histology. Newer applications of NGS such as for circulating tumor DNA testing and to identify novel RNA fusion driver events continue to expand its clinical utility. |
