How to refer a patient for sequencing

Patients with solid tumours can be referred for comprehensive tumour profiling through the MPCCC Precision Oncology Program, in accordance with the guidelines and eligibility provided below.

There is an 8-12 week turnaround time on next-generation sequencing results. Patient results will be compiled into a report for analysis and interpretation through a Molecular Tumour Board, and recommendations will be communicated to a patient’s treating clinician.

The following documents are available for oncology clinicians:

• Patient information sheet
• Information sheet for doctors
• Referral form

Request access to the MoST patient referral documents using the form below. You can also hear directly from Dr Muhammad Alamgeer, Medical Oncologist at Monash Health, about his experience using the MPCCC referral service for molecular tumour sequencing for his patients in the video below.
