Abstract:
Aim: This study provides clinicians and researchers with an informed choice between current commercially available targeted sequencing panels and exome sequencing panels in the context of pan-cancer pharmacogenetics. Materials & methods: Nine contemporary commercially available targeted pan-cancer panels and the xGen Exome Research Panel v2 were investigated to determine to what extent they cover the pharmacogenetic variant–drug interactions in five available cancer knowledgebases, and the driver mutations and fusion genes in the Cancer Genome Atlas. Results: xGen Exome Research Panel v2 and TrueSight Oncology 500 target 71.0 and 68.9% of the pharmacogenetic interactions in the available knowledgebases; and 93.7 and 86.0% of the driver mutations in the Cancer Genome Atlas, respectively. All other studied panels target lower percentages. Conclusion: Exome sequencing outperforms pan-cancer targeted sequencing panels in terms of covered cancer pharmacogenetic variant–drug interactions and pharmacogenetic cancer variants.
