Abstract excerpt
As DNA sequencing of multigene panels becomes routine for cancer samples in the clinical laboratory, an efficient process for classifying variants has become more critical. Determining which germline variants are significant for cancer disposition and which somatic mutations are integral to cancer development or therapy response remains difficult, even for well-studied genes such as BRCA1 and TP53. We compare and...
