Abstract

In Japan, the comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP)tests were covered by insurance in June 2019, and more than 23,000 cases have been tested so far. On the other hand, only 8.1% of patients were reported to have received treatment, suggesting that the benefits of CGP test may not be fully utilized. In Japan, CGP tests are indicated for patients with solid tumors who have no standard treatment or who failed all standard treatment (including those expected to failure). This situation has been pointed out that access to drugs may be poor due to the timing of last-line treatment.
