Clinical Validation of Local Versus Commercial Genomic Testing in Cancer: A Comparison of Tissue and Plasma Concordance.

Genomic sequencing of tumours improves patient outcomes through implementation of precision oncology. At present, genomic testing is mainly confined to research settings, with samples sent to biopharmaceutical companies for analysis. The ever-expanding catalogue approved of targeted therapies has created an urgent unmet need for local genomic testing facilities, to enable upscaling of testing.
