Eligibility statements

You are here: Home / 100,000 Genomes Project / Healthcare Professionals / Eligibility statements

The eligibility statements provide guidance to recruiting clinicians across England about the patients most likely to benefit from the opportunity of diagnostic whole genome sequencing and who are therefore eligible for recruitment into the Genomics England Rare Diseases Programme.

For each disease in the approved conditions list an “eligibility statement” is provided composed of the following key information:

  1. Inclusion criteria – the clinical features, characteristics or investigations that probands with a given disease must have in order to be eligible for recruitment.
  2. Exclusion criteria – the clinical features, characteristics or investigation findings that participants with a given disease must not have in order to be eligible for recruitment.
  3. Prior genetic testing – this sets out both in general terms, and where appropriate more specifically, the genetic testing which participants with a given disease must have performed prior to recruitment.

The eligibility statements will be continuously reviewed and developed over time in light of new discoveries and changes in clinical practice.

  • Butterflies are genetically wired to choose a mate that looks just like them February 8, 2019
    A team of academics from the University of Cambridge, in collaboration with the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute in Panama, observed the courtship rituals and sequenced the DNA from nearly 300 butterflies to find out how much of the genome was responsible for their mating behaviour.   The research, published in PLOS Biology, is one of […]
  • Slim people have a genetic advantage when it comes to maintaining their weight January 24, 2019
    More than six in ten adults in the UK are overweight, and one in four adults is obese. By age five, almost one in four children is either overweight or obese. Excess weight increases the risk of related health problems including type 2 diabetes and heart disease. While it is well known that changes in […]
  • Researchers develop comprehensive new way to predict breast cancer risk January 15, 2019
    They have a developed a way of calculating the risk of developing the disease by combining information on family history and genetics with other factors such as weight, age at menopause, alcohol consumption and use of hormone replacement therapy. Although individually some of these things have a small impact on the likelihood of developing the […]
