Abstract
This Australian study systematically measures the cost of using precision medicine in high-risk childhood cancers through the Zero Childhood Cancer Precision Medicine Programme. Costs included genomic and preclinical testing, totaling $12,743 per patient for access, $14,262 per molecular cause identification, and $21,769 per MTB recommendation. These findings provide crucial economic data for implementing precision medicine in pediatric oncology.
