ctDNA pilot for suspected lung cancer

January 30 @ 4:00 PM - 5:30 PM

Image encourage people to join our online talk about the ctDNA pilot.

Image encourage people to join our online talk about the ctDNA pilot.

Join us to learn more about the new NHS pilot in the South East which is seeking to explore the benefits of using liquid biopsies (circulating tumour DNA) and genomic testing to diagnose suspected lung cancers.

  • Understand more about the pilot and its progress
    Listen to the experiences of clinicians who are already taking part
    Understand how your Trust can also be part of the pilot

Everyone is welcome.

Register your place here.

With any Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) test ordered, a Record of Discussion (RoD) form will also need to be submitted. This document is to record the patient’s consent for genomic testing and their choice on taking part in research. Guidance on the patient choice conversation can be found here
 
This RoD form will be available for clinicians to download from this webpage. Once completed with the patient, it can be send to the lab with the corresponding test order form and sample.
Tests available to order will be listed in the National Genomic Test Directory. A test order form will soon be made available for clinicians on this webpage to download and complete. This form will include the address of the laboratory that the appropriate sample and completed form needs to be sent to.
 
Until the new Genomic Laboratory Service goes live, please continue to follow existing test order processes.
 
Later this year, the online test ordering tool for Whole Genome Sequencing will be integrated into the National Genomics Informatics System (NGIS) and clinicians will be able to search or filter to find a clinical indication, confirm eligibility criteria and start the test request process for their patient.
