Comprehensive Genomic Profiling (CGP) is becoming a critical component for evaluating treatment options in oncology patients. The ideal CGP assay provides information on both standard-of-care and evolving molecular biomarkers, maximizes information obtained from limited biopsy samples, and is straightforward to implement and operate in the pathology laboratory. In this workshop, Dr. Solomon from Weill Cornell shares his lab's experience implementing CGP using a hybrid capture based CGP assay and its impact at his institution. He describes considerations in choosing assays for implementation and will discuss the value of in-house comprehensive CGP assays.
