Germline testing data validate inferences of mutational status for variants detected from tumor-only sequencing

2021-04-15

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Structured Abstract</h4> <h4>Background</h4> Pathogenic germline variants (PGV) in cancer susceptibility genes are usually identified in cancer patients through germline testing of DNA from blood or saliva: their detection can impact patient treatment options and potential risk reduction strategies for relatives. PGV can also be identified, in tumor sequencing assays, often performed without matched normal s...
