Introduction: Molecular diagnostics is undergoing a great development, especially in the field of oncology. Recently, Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) has been incorporated as a molecular diagnostic tool. Extended genomic sequencing has made it possible to increase knowledge of oncogenic alterations and the use of this information to apply treatments directed against these alterations, individualising the treatment of each patient. In a strategy towards precision medicine.
Objectives: The main objectives of this work have been to show the growing healthcare need for the use of new molecular diagnostic techniques and what the introduction of precision medicine of genomic alterations entails in daily clinical practice in the hospital.
Material and methods: descriptive study of 491 oncology patients at the Hospital General Universitario de Alicante, in whom molecular diagnostic techniques have been performed from 2020 to 2024. We analysed the indications according to tumor type and stage, together with the results of the molecular studies and their potential therapeutic implications.
Results: The most commonly used molecular diagnostic technique was NGS (76%). In recent years, there has been an increase of 25.52% in the use of PCR and a decrease of 15.77% in the use of NGS. In 13% of the samples analysed, genomic alterations have been documented that could benefit from targeted treatments. The majority of cases corresponded to non-small-cell lung cancer (59.2%).
Conclusions: Precision medicine continues to be a challenge today, the growing need for which has enabled the development of new molecular diagnostic techniques such as NGS. The implementation of molecular diagnostics will facilitate more specialised care in the treatment of cancer patients.
