Abstract

The cancer genome-profiling test is performed to analyze exome gene mutations, amplifications, deletions, fusion gene expression, etc. in tumor tissues with a next-generation sequencer to identify tumor-specific driver genes. The cancer genome-profiling test is covered by medical insurance for patients with malignant brain tumors in Japan, but it is limited to patients with good PS(performance status), considering the conditions for participation in clinical trials. The findings of the expert panel will create more opportunities to administer new therapeutic agents for clinical trials for malignant brain tumors.
