This systematic review highlights where genomic medicine is likely cost-effective across the cancer care continuum, from:
🔹 Prevention & early detection
🔹 Diagnosis, staging & planning
🔹 Treatment
🔹 Managing refractory/relapsed disease
🔹 Palliative & end-of-life care

Using #MCDA, we elicited expert preference values for the diagnostic, clinical, family, economic, and societal components of genomic utility. This enabled the development of a scoring system ranging from 0% to 100%. The utility indicators used in the scale are shown in the table.
