Learning Objectives 1. Compare category 1, 2 and 3 molecular tests to understand
the molecular information provided by each test
2. Use a database to access comprehensive genomic profiles of cancers to make informed therapeutic decisions
3. Recognize the potential shift in cancer care that could result from digital physician interaction focused on genomic information

Precision Medicine: The Vision
“I want the country that eliminated polio and mapped the human
genome to lead a new era of medicine — one that delivers …
the right treatments at the right time,
every time, to the right person.”
— President Barack Obama
State of The Union, January 2015

Identifying Genomic Alterations
Test Type Detects Limitations
Category 1
Single Gene Testing
(eg IHC, FISH, PCR)
• Single gene findings, class
depends on the test
• Can only identify findings in single genes.
• Misses any finding the test was not specifically designed
to identify a priori
• Higher risk of false positives (eg especially with IHC)
Category 2
Hot Spot Panels
• Multiple findings with specific
a prior sequences
• Limited to a smaller set of genes
• Misses any finding the test was not specifically designed
to identify a priori
• Cannot identify copy number alterations or
Rearrangements
Category 3
Comprehensive
Genomic Profiling
• All mutations in all 4 classes
(Base Substitutions,
Insertions and Deletions,
Copy Number Alterations,
and Rearrangements)
• Can detect findings not
known about a priori
• May miss RNA-level events (including over-expression
and alternative isoforms)

Making Real World Data Real: A third
approach
What if, instead of centralizing data in a common repository, we could
extend the age-old practice of the “curbside consult,” but adapt it for a
modern, technological, molecular era?
Foundation Medicine has built a tool, PatientMatch*, to match patients
and providers across this network based on their genomic signatures,
allowing providers to exchange information about these rare cases with
each other.
*Note: PatientMatch is a complementary service designed to enhance
the utility of comprehensive genomic profiling and enable precision
medicine
![Page 40: Precision Medicine in the Information Age · –Medical school at Harvard and Internal Medicine residency at ... cancer genomics and molecular information company . ... Targeted Therapies](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070111/604fcd5b6422a82c9d588257/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Dr. Miller receives Dr. Cole’s request by email, and agrees to
help her
Dr. Miller is taken to FoundationICE where he is asked to answer 4 questions about his experience treating his matching patient
PatientMatch learns from Dr. Miller’s response, for Dr. Cole and for other physicians with similar
questions
After 72 hours, Dr. Cole receives an email informing her responses
to her inquiry are available
Dr. Cole receives a FoundationOne report for her
patient with breast cancer with EGFR L858R
FoundationICE’s PatientMatch service helps her find other
physicians who have seen similar patients
PatientMatch reaches out to those physicians on Dr.
Cole’s behalf, one of whom is Dr. Miller
*note: this is a fictional case, and names do not refer to real patients or providers

Information Science: Next Steps
The Right Data Sets
• Represented here is a
limited set of high-value
outcomes data, derived
individually from
providers
• Need ways of extracting
and integrating more
robust data elements
(imaging, NLP, side
effects, etc.) – ideally
automatically
Exchangeable across
institutional and
geographic boundaries
• Need data to be usable
outside of individual silos
• Several opportunities
here: health information
exchanges, large public
registries and data
exchanges (eg
CancerLinQ, AACR Project
GENIE)
Usable by physicians in
clinical care
• Once data sets become
more complex and
nuanced, will need
additional statistical
approaches and
automated CDS solutions
• Ideally will need these
integrated into existing
workflows (eg EMRs)

Conclusion
• The era of precision medicine has arrived – certainly in oncology – with major advances in diagnostics and therapeutics
• Patient’s tumors are now characterized not only anatomically and histologically, but also by the genomic drivers of their disease
• This paradigm shift has made evidence gathering and treatment decision making much more complicated
• We need new ways of collecting and assimilating data, as well as new clinical decision support tools to enable the practice of precision medicine in the clinic
