Abstract
Developments in molecular diagnosis and implementation of mutation-driven targeted therapy marked a milestone in cancer treatment. Next-generation sequencing allows sequencing of a high number of nucleotides in a short time and from a limited quantity of pathology or cytology specimens. This is a review of actual indications, utility of next-generation sequencing, and availability of targeted therapies in different neoplasms. We present the European Society for Medical Oncology Precision Medicine Working Group recommendations for tumor multigene sequencing use with the Scale for Clinical Actionability of molecular Targets ranking determined for each alteration.
