Abstract

Prognostic or predictive somatic genetic biomarkers influence therapeutic decisions in oncology. With the availability of next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies, large numbers of somatic and germ line mutations can be analysed in parallel both, from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue (FFPE) and fresh frozen tissue at high quality. In this study we evaluated the feasibility, turn-around time and diagnostic usefulness of highthroughput NGS analyses in the clinical setting and offered two different diagnostic sequencing panels to 52 selected patients.
