Using ClinVar to Share Germline & Somatic Variant Classifications from Clinical Genomic Testing

Описание: CGC Webinar: Using ClinVar to Share Germline and Somatic Variant Classificationsfrom Clinical Genomic Testing for Cancer
December 17, 2024

Clinical genetics testing laboratories have benefited from sharing variant classifications of germline variants for monogenic disorders with ClinVar since its introduction in 2013. In January 2024, ClinVar was updated to accept classifications of somatic variants for cancer, including assertions of oncogenicity and clinical impact. In this webinar, Melissa J. Landrum PhD and Sharon E. Plon MD, PhD will describe how genetic testing laboratories have benefited from sharing germline variants through ClinVar, and how cancer testing laboratories can take advantage of sharing classifications of somatic variants.
