Predictive molecular pathology in non–small cell lung cancer in France: The past, the present and the perspectives

Abstract: The advent of molecular targets for novel therapeutics in oncology, notably for non–small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC), led the French National Cancer Institute (INCa) to establish a national network of 28 hospital Molecular Genetics Centers for Cancer (MGCC) in 2007. In each University in France, laboratories were established to develop molecular biology testing to evaluate a few genomic alterations, initially a selection of genes, by using specific targeted polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays. In a second … Show more

“…The first period of the implementation of routine molecular profiling was led by the National Cancer Institute in 2007. 7 A total of 28 hospital molecular genetics centers for cancer were labeled to carry out molecular profiling (at least one genetic center in each administrative region). Different analytical approaches were used, including Sanger sequencing and more sensitive approaches, such as pyrosequencing or allele-specific polymerase chain reaction.…”

“…Reliance on the sequencing strategy as a reflex test has a strong impact on the associated cost of molecular biological tests and can be discussed according to the mode of reimbursement of these tests by institutions, local organizations, and/or countries [83][84][85]. Thus, a strategy of reflex testing by NGS can be influenced by the capacity to finance these tests [67,68,86].…”

“…Thus, a strategy of reflex testing by NGS can be influenced by the capacity to finance these tests [67,68,86]. As an example, in France, the invoice associated with these tests is sent to the physicians (oncologists in the majority of cases) who ask for the molecular biology prescription [83]. As a matter of fact, the NGS tests are partially reimbursed in France,…”

“…In recent years, the use of LDCT to detect early-stage LC has increased by 74.1% (8). Additionally, circulating tumor cells (CTCs), circulating tumor DNAs (ctDNAs), and exosomes have gradually become more vital in the early diagnosis of LUAC (9)(10)(11). Continuous progress is being made to develop novel early-stage LUAC diagnostic methods.…”
