The problem<br />

Only recently survived children begin <strong>to</strong> reach the<br />

reproductive age<br />

Small families<br />

Most forms occur sporadically<br />

families with clear Mendelian inheritance are scarce and<br />

characterized by variable penetrance and a wide range <strong>of</strong><br />

expressivity<br />

very few cases have been described involving lowpenetrant<br />

mutations <strong>of</strong> single genes<br />

Improving the effectiveness <strong>of</strong> healthcare means that genetic<br />

diagnosis HAS TO BE obtained for most diseases in short times<br />

thus cutting the diagnostic odyssey <strong>of</strong> patients<br />

Roma - June 23, 2011<br />

REMARKS<br />

There is no comprehensive and affordable diagnostic<br />

platform for several diseases<br />

Substantial delay in the diagnosis<br />

We are developing different approaches and<br />

different projects <strong>to</strong> cover a large set <strong>of</strong> disorders<br />

Shortening time and costs <strong>to</strong> diagnosis<br />

Therapeutic decisions & clinical trials<br />

We are ready for clinical<br />

applications <strong>of</strong> targeted NGS!<br />
