Abstract

CONTEXT.—: Precise determination of biomarker status is necessary for clinical trial enrollment and endpoint analyses, as well as for optimal treatment determination in real-world practice. However, variabilities may be introduced into this process due to the processing of clinical specimens by different laboratories and assessment by distinct pathologists. Machine learning tools have the potential to minimize inconsistencies, although their use is not presently widespread.
