Moreover, FFPE samples showed a higher fragmentation index (DIN 1.2 and RIN not calculated) compared with cell line resuspension (DIN 2.2 and 9.5 for SNU16 and RT112; RIN 3.9 and 6.8 for SNU16 and RT112). All participating institutions identified NGS represents the most suitable approach in molecular profiling of Show less

This study used a deidentified nationwide (US-based) high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) clinicogenomic database (CGDB) to enrich our understanding of HGSOC's genomic heterogeneity and assess the utility of comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) in clinical settings. We conducted a retrospective observational analysis on 856 patients with HGSOC profiled with CGP genomic tests, retrieved from CGDB from January 2011 to September 2023. In addition to Overall, our study provides evidence that CGP significantly improves the identification of molecular targets in HGSOC, supporting its importance in the clinical practice to provide patients with more therapeutic options.
