Perspectives and Experiences of Parents and Adolescents Who Participate in a Pediatric Precision Oncology Program: "When You Feel Helpless, This Kind of Thing Is Very Helpful".

This study suggests that parents and adolescents benefit from NGS evaluation beyond the return of clinically relevant results. Our findings lay the framework for future work evaluating the value of NGS in pediatric precision oncology care through assessment of patient-reported outcomes and experiences. These results also guide provision of pre- and post-test education and support, which will facilitate patient-centered delivery of NGS practices.
