In selected populations of patients with advanced cancer, universal sequencing of germline and tumor DNA for a broad panel of cancer-related genes may detect more potentially clinically significant heritable mutations than a targeted approach based on current clinical guidelines. It is not known if this will result in improved outcomes.
