Abstract:
Somatic multiple-gene panel tests for cancer genome medicine and companion diagnostics, which diagnose or screen hereditary tumor syndromes along with selecting patients suitable for specific anticancer drugs, have been introduced to the clinical setting. Germline multi-gene panel tests also have begun to be used. In this situation, the traditional flow of the medical treatment for hereditary tumor syndromes is rapidly changing in Japan. It is anticipated that cases whose complicated germline genetic information is detected through approaches different from the traditional genetic testing flow will increase. It is necessary to develop systems that can lead to preventive intervention and treatment of cancer patients and previvors in his/her relatives through interpretation and communication of genetic information. In future medical treatment for hereditary tumor syndrome, flexible responses for various issues in a manner free from traditional are required not to be confined to the frame of conventional medical genetics.
