PanCAN Know Your Tumor
PanCAN pays for tumour sequencing for people with pancreatic cancer in the US, so the results can point to a targeted drug or a trial.
Overview
Know Your Tumor is the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network's precision medicine service. Patients or their oncologists apply through PanCAN Patient Services; the charity coordinates collection of tumour tissue and pays for comprehensive genomic profiling, then returns a report to the treating oncologist. PanCAN's published analyses of the programme found that a minority of patients carry an actionable alteration and that those treated on a matched therapy lived longer, which is the argument for testing everyone. The programme is limited to the United States and the programme page states the current eligibility rules.
