How does FoundationOne NGS comprehensive sequencing compare to "hot spot panels" for detecting actionable alterations? What are the limitations -- including false negatives -- of hot spot panels? (English)

How does FoundationOne NGS comprehensive sequencing compare to common “hot spot panels” with respect to detecting clinically actionable alterations? How does FoundationOne, NGS-based technology differ from “hot spot” panels? What are the ...

How do you select patients with solid tumors for NGS? Is it just for patients with cancer at time of presentation? Patients under treatment? Assessment of tumors in patients who have relapsed? (English)

How do you select patients with solid tumors that are appropriate for NGS? Is it useful just for patients with cancer at time of presentation? Can NGS be used for patients under treatment? For assessment of tumors in patients who have relapsed? (English)

Can you share examples of cancer patients -- including those with NSCLC, metastatic breast cancer, and colorectal cancer -- whose treatment was more precisely shaped by NGS reports? (English)

Can you share examples of actual cancer patients — including those with NSCLC, metastatic breast cancer, and colorectal cancer — whose treatment was more precisely shaped by having access to NGS reports such as that provided by FoundationOne ...
