In Brazil, the most frequent types of neoplasm are prostate cancer in men and breast cancer in women. Understanding the molecular variants in tumors, which result from mutations and variants that occur during carcinogenesis, can affect treatment response and disease prognosis and is an important target of oncology research. Detecting hereditary genetic syndromes also helps in oncological follow-up, allowing prediction of the risk of new neoplasms. This project aims to perform complete sequencing of the somatic (tumor) and germline exomes during clinical investigation of cancer patients treated through the Brazilian Unified Health System to generate genomic and phenotypic data for the Brazilian Ministry of Health's National Precision Genomics and Health Program, called Genomas Brasil, as well as to collect data on the population's ancestry.
