OBJECTIVE: The majority of tumor sequencing currently performed on cancer patients does not include a matched normal control, and in cases where germline testing is performed, it is usually run independently of tumor testing. The rates of concordance between variants identified via germline and tumor testing in this context are poorly understood. We compared tumor and germline sequencing results in patients with...
