Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Personalized medicine is guided by an expanding array of molecular targets. This study investigates whether larger next-generation sequencing (NGS) gene panels (> 1 Mb) yield more clinically relevant therapy options in molecular tumor boards (MTB) compared to smaller panels. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We analyzed 281 consecutive patients using a 430-gene DNA panel (1.3 Mb) combined with a...
