a

Scenarios 1–3 assume 50% uptake for FoundationOne CDx (Foundation Medicine, Cambridge, MA, U.S.A.). PD-L1 expression is immunohistochemical assays and used in conjunction with FoundationOne testing.

b

FoundationOne CDx replaces all reflex testing.

c

FoundationOne CDx replaces hotspot panel.

d

FoundationOne CDx used after negative reflex and hotspot panel.

e

FoundationOne Liquid testing only.

Conv. = conventional testing; FO = FoundationOne testing.
