Description: AMP has been actively engaged in multiple related oncology molecular biomarker reporting projects. While many areas of consensus are being established, some aspects of optimal biomarker reporting still remain contentious. Members of the AMP Provider-friendly (often referred to as "Oncologist-friendly") and Patient-friendly Molecular Biomarker Reporting Working Groups will engage in a panel discussion about some of these areas and gather attendee feedback on how additional progress could be made.

Learning Objectives:
1. Identify current challenges for clinical laboratories for NGS molecular biomarker reporting.
2. Discuss upcoming AMP guidance that seeks to improve NGS molecular biomarker reporting considering both provider and patient perspectives.

Presentations:

• 2:30 PM – 3:30 PM PST
