The genotyping data of full sibling pairs and parent-child pairs of 55 tumor tissues were simulated. The number of total identical alleles (<i>A<sub>n</sub></i>) and identity by state (IBS) scores were calculated within the paired carcinoma (PC), the tumor-unrelated individual (UI), the tumor-simulated full sibling (FS) and the tumor-simulated parent-offspring (PO) groups. The tumor tissue origin identification and prediction models of 8 commonly used STR typing kits were established based on the statistical results obtained above, and an attempt was made to establish a specific model for tumor tissue origin identification.
