Abstract
Precision oncology trials have generally focused on tumor testing to identify actionable alterations. The National Cancer Institute—Children’s Oncology Group Pediatric MATCH trial incorporated return of germline results to assess feasibility of reporting in a cooperative group setting and characterize germline cancer predisposition in patients with refractory cancers.
