Cancer genomics biomarker testing – Canadian Association of Provincial Cancer Agencies

The 2024-25 annual report from the Pan-Canadian Cancer Genomics Community of Practice showcases achievements throughout the year and details next steps toward equitable, standardized biomarker testing.

Members of the Pan-Canadian Cancer Genomics Community of Practice contributed to the development of a consensus-based assessment framework to support the standardized, efficient, and transparent evaluation of molecular, genetic, and genomic biomarkers in cancer care in Canada.

The Pan-Canadian Cancer Genomics Community of Practice is prioritizing the development of a consensus-based assessment framework to guide adoption and funding decisions for genetic and genomic biomarkers in cancer care.

We acknowledge that the work of the Canadian Association of Provincial Cancer Agencies takes place on the traditional lands of First Nations, Inuit and Métis communities across Canada.

We honour the unique cultures, languages, and histories of these nations, recognizing their enduring connections to the land. We commit to working collaboratively with First Nations, Inuit and Métis to achieve health and well-being, acknowledging the historical and ongoing impacts of colonialism. Together, we strive for equity in cancer care for all.
