摘要
In 2006, The National Institutes of Health Office of Rare Diseases announced the Collaboration, Education, and Test Translation (CETT) Program, a pilot project to increase and improve the translation of genetic tests for rare diseases from research laboratories to clinical laboratories. The CETT Program created a new paradigm in which applicants must form a collaborative group consisting of a clinical laboratory, researcher, research laboratory, clinical expert, and disease-specific advocacy group. In addition, each collaborative group must assure that test results are written in a style and format appropriate for nonexpert clinicians; provide educational materials for clinicians and patients about the disease, as well as the use and limitations of the test in the care of persons with the disease; agree to collect clinical data necessary for test result interpretation; and store genotype information and clinical data in a publicly accessible deidentified database.
