Rapid advances in the understanding of solid tumours has lead to exponential growth in the developement of molecularly-targeted therapies.  Patients with tumours harbouring specific mutations may be candidates for specific therapies.  Additionally, molecular testing can aid in prognostic stratification or identification of treatment-resistant tumours.  Due to these advances, molecular testing has been incorporated into international guidelines.
