First report from the cancer program of the 100,000 genomes project

 The first report from the 100,000 Genomes Cancer Program, consisting of an analysis of whole-genome sequencing from 13,800 solid tumours was recently published in Nature Medicine.  As discussed in the report, comprehensive tumour profiling "will enable further refinement of prognostic and predictive molecular markers, not only with combinations of different genomic alterations, but beyond genomics, including emerging technologies to expand the reach of precision oncology to improve cancer outcomes."
