Genomic Profiling of Relapsed and Refractory Childhood Cancers

Through clinical trials focused on molecularly guided therapy in pediatric cancers (NCT01355679, NCT01802567, NCT02162732), the Beat Childhood Cancer Consortium performed paired tumor/normal whole exome sequencing and/or tumor mRNA sequencing for 202 pediatric or adolescent young adult patients with rare, relapsed and refractory cancers (including neuroblastoma, Ewing sarcoma, osteosarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, ependymoma, glioma, and other rare solid tumors). A subset of these patients had multiple biopsies sequenced, including longitudinal profiling.
