Precision health and oncology• White House Precision Health Initiative mission statement
– To enable a new era of medicine through research, technology, and policies that empower patients, researchers, and providers to work together toward development of individualized care.
• National Cancer Institute defines precision medicine as– Discovering unique therapies that treat an individual’s cancer based on
the specific abnormalities of their tumor.

FFPE tumor tissue
• Preferred method for tissue preservation in clinical practice
• Routinely used for multiple analyses methods, including immunohistochemistry (IHC), in situ hybridization, and next generation sequencing
• Notorious for suboptimal DNA quantity and quality
• Sample quality evaluation is key to optimizing downstream processing

• Quality and yield of DNA extracted from FFPE samples are likely influenced by preservation and fixation
• QC methods predict final library complexity• Increased shearing and added pre-capture PCR cycles were required for
FFPE samples• It is important to perform QC on FFPE DNA to determine the minimum
input required for deep coverage• Sequencing depth is dependent on DNA quality and input amount
