Multi-Institutional, Prospective Clinical Utility Study Evaluating the Impact of the 92-Gene Assay (CancerTYPE ID) on Final Diagnosis and Treatment Planning in Patients With Metastatic Cancer With an Unknown or Unclear Diagnosis

Article Background: Metastatic cancers of unknown primary or with unclear diagnoses pose diagnostic and management challenges, often leading to poor outcomes. Studies of the 92-gene assay have demonstrated improved diagnostic accuracy compared with standard pathology techniques and improved survival in patients treated on the basis of assay results. The current study assessed the clinical impact of the 92-gene assay on diagnostic and treatment decisions for patients with unknown or uncertain diagnoses.
