While the last decade has witnessed major advances in the treatment of late stage cancers with targeted and immune-based therapies, there is a critical unmet need to develop new approaches to impact the prevention and early detection of cancer. Recent advances in the field of genomics and computational biology offer unprecedented opportunities to understand the earliest molecular events associated with carcinogenesis, leading to novel strategies to intercept the development of invasive cancers. This review will highlight emerging “big data” genomic approaches that have the potential to accelerate advances in cancer prevention, screening and early detection across a variety of tumor types along with the challenges inherent in developing these tools for use in the clinic. Through coordinated multicenter consortia, these genomic approaches promise to transform the landscape of cancer interception in the coming years.
