ABSTRACT Molecular diagnostics have become an important adjunct to ultrasonography and fine‐needle aspiration (FNA) for thyroid nodules, especially in Bethesda III/IV cytology where malignancy risk is uncertain. This narrative review summarizes the diagnostic and prognostic value of key genomic drivers (BRAF V600E, RAS, RET, TERT, and selected fusions)

Next-generation sequencing of prostate cancer: genomic and pathway alterations, potential actionability patterns, and relative rate of use of clinical-grade testing. [PDF]
Despite being one of the most common cancers, treatment options for prostate cancer are limited. Novel approaches for advanced disease are needed. We evaluated the relative rate of use of clinical-grade next generation sequencing (NGS) in prostate cancer,

Finding More in Less: Precision Medicine for Pancreatic Cancer Using Residual Cytology Samples
The study evaluates the use of residual liquid‐based cytology (LBC) samples from pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) for molecular analysis. It shows that LBC samples preserve nucleic acid quality and remain suitable for next‐generation sequencing (NGS) and MSI testing even after prolonged storage, underscoring their value when other samples are ...

Canadian Consensus for Biomarker Testing and Treatment of TRK Fusion Cancer in Pediatric Patients
Neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase gene fusions (NTRK) are oncogenic drivers present at a low frequency in most tumour types (80%) in a small number of rare tumours (e.g., infantile fibrosarcoma [IFS]) and considered mutually exclusive with other ...

Molecular pathology of phyllodes tumours of the breast—much more than MED12
Phyllodes tumours can develop from fibroadenomas bearing MED12 variants by the development of pTERT alterations (“MED12 pathway”) or de novo (“MED12 independent pathway”). Grade progression is associated with increasing genetic complexity including cancer driver gene aberrations. Molecular alterations can be useful in assigning grade and distinguishing
