Abstract  

Discoveries from cancer genome sequencing have great potential application value for cancer prevention, diagnostics, prognostics, treatment and basic biology. Given the diversity of downstream applications, cancer genome-sequencing studies need to be designed to best fulfill specific aims. At the same time, knowledge of second-generation cancer genome-sequencing study design also facilitates assessment of the validity and importance of the rapidly growing number of published studies. Here, we focus on the practical application of second-generation sequencing technology to cancer genomics, and discuss how the study design and method could be adjusted to better achieve the purpose of specific aims.
