Conclusions Prospective, multiplexed genotyping can be efficiently incorporated into clinical practice to aid clinical decision-making and to accelerate stratified clinical trial enrollment. Broad-based tumor genotyping can identify new prognostic/therapeutic markers not previously identified in a specific cancer type. Emerging tumor genotyping technologies including Next Generation Sequencing will be an important tool in expanding our efforts to: identify novel therapeutic targets understand differential response to treatment discover additional mechanisms of acquired resistance
