The newly reviewed ones that score in the middle third are ND with a specific designation. In theory when Councils meet in February they can be selected for funding.

We demonstrated that testing was feasible and about 25% of recurrent tumors had variants in cancer predisposition genes of which 20% were germline. Rapid reflex germline testing of tumor results is warranted.

Germline Cancer Predisposition Results From the National Cancer Institute-Children's Oncology Group Pediatric MATCH Trial - PubMed Coordinated germline and tumor panel testing was feasible and revealed P/LP CPG variants in 6.3% of the Pediatric MATCH cohort. Tumor variant fraction, germline association of CPG with tumor type, and adult-oriented guidelines were not predictive of germline status, emphasizing the need for systemat …

Happy to report that the results of germline testing as part of the National Cancer Institute/Children’s Oncology Group MATCH precision oncology trial was published. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41166674/

I’m scheduled for a late November study section but they haven’t given us our review assignments. Anyone know the minimum time to review is required.

I’m a child of a German Jewish family that escaped in 1939 - growing up in Philadelphia I remember reading many times over a book about how Denmark saved their Jewish population in boats to Sweden. It was very important to have that one story of a country which didn’t allow the massacre to occur.
