A Retrospective analysis of Genomic Sequencing in Veterans with Malignancy
-
- STATUS
- Not Recruiting
Summary
This is a descriptive retrospective analysis to understand the patterns of incorporating genomic testing in the care of cancer patients at the Indianapolis VA. We will aim to describe the concordance of these patterns with existing guidelines, and thus regulate the use of this investigation at the VA as a quality measure. We will also identify patterns of gene mutations in various cancers that may be specific to our veteran population due to their unique exposure risk profiles. The ultimate goal of this research is to strengthen the genomic program at the Indianapolis VA and then expand this care model to other VA's nationally as well.
