Brief Title: Lung Cancer Next Generation Sequencing Using the Oncomine Comprehensive Assay
Official Title: Lung Cancer Next Generation Sequencing Using the Oncomine Comprehensive Cancer Panel
Study ID: NCT03558165
Brief Summary: Currently, publicly funded standard of care testing in Ontario for stage IV lung cancer patients uses individual gene tests to look for mutations in the EGFR and ALK genes. This testing broadens treatment options for patients, however there are other gene mutations with corresponding targeted treatments that are not routinely tested for. This study will evaluate the utility and added value of using a next generation sequencing (NGS) panel, the Oncomine Comprehensive Assay v3, to profile stage IV lung cancer patients.
