Learning objectives

An increasing number of therapeutics that require biomarkers testing are available for clinical use or are in advanced phase of clinical development
Different technologies can be used for biomarker testing depending on the nature of the biomarker and the availability of biological samples
The increasing use of large panels for comprehensive genomic profiling raises issues on data interpretation that require a multidisciplinary approach
Monitoring the molecular evolution of the disease might allow the identification of resistance mechanisms and the development of more effective therapeutic strategies
The identification of germline variants requires the activation of genetic counselling programs for patients and their families

This event has been supported by an unrestricted educational grant from Lilly Oncology and MSD.
