Development of a System for Providing Cancer Genomic Medicine in Hokkaido-From the Standpoint of a Designated Core Hospital for Cancer Genomic Medicine

Hokkaido University Hospital has been designated as a Core Hospital for Cancer Genomic Medicine and developed a system to provide cancer genomic medicine in Hokkaido with its liaison hospitals. Since being reimbursed in June 2019, comprehensive cancer genome profiling (CGP) testing showed certain therapeutic efficacy in patients with no standard treatment options, but it also revealed some problems such as the small number of patients who can receive therapeutic drugs matched with gene abnormalities. Since candidate drugs are often unapproved or off-label, it is necessary to smoothly introduce clinical trials, advanced medical treatment system, and patient-proposed health care service. At our hospital, we are focusing on sharing information on clinical trials being conducted in Hokkaido, launching investigator-initiated clinical trials, promoting patient-proposed health care service, promoting a registry study of genetic profiling and targeted therapies in patients with rare cancers and accompanying clinical trials, and incorporating pediatric cancer patients. This paper describes Hokkaido's cancer genomic medicine provision system, including its exit strategy, and the human resource development that serve as its foundation.
