Barring unforeseen circumstances, Friday of the week following the week testing is started.

Notes

Curls may be submitted instead of slides if the percent tumor has been assessed by the submitting physician or designee and no macrodissection is necessary. This panel includes the following clinically actionable genes: ALK, AKT1, APC, BRAF, CDH1, CTNBB1, EGFR, ERBB2/HER2, FBXW7, FGFR2, FOXL2, GNAQ, GNAS, KIT, KRAS, MAP2K1, MET, MSH6, NRAS, PDGFRA, PIK3CA, PTEN, SMAD4, SRC, STK11, and TP53

Interpretive Data

NOTES:
This test simultaneously assesses the mutation status of multiple genes that have been shown to be involved in a variety of cancer types. Determining mutation status may assist in rendering diagnoses, provide prognostic information and/or help guide the choice of chemotherapeutic agents. Chemotherapeutic agents that target specific altered proteins are increasingly used in the treatment of patients with cancer. The efficacy of these drugs is highly related to the genetic makeup of individual tumors. The test detects only alterations included in the test design (see below) and a negative result does not exclude the possibility of other mutations even within the same gene. Intronic (non-coding) variants are not reported unless they are known to be clinically significant. Sequence variants that have been identified in general population and known to be benign are not included in the test report unless specifically requested.
 
TEST PERFORMED:
The test was performed after DNA preparation using the Illumina TruSight Oncology 500 preparation kit and next-generation sequencing (NGS) on the Illumina NextSeq instrument. TruSight Oncology Mutation Panel 26 (TSO26) library preparation kit uses hybrid-capture chemistry combined with bioinformatics, and utilizes inclusive of unique molecular indexes (UMIs) for high sensitivity in variant detection.  TSO26 simultaneously identifies point mutations and insertions/deletions in specific regions of 26 genes (listed below). This test routinely detects heterozygous mutations in tissue with 10% or greater tumor content or homozygous mutations in tissue with more than 5% or greater tumor content. Any sequence variants not reported in the result section were deemed non-deleterious (e.g., benign single nucleotide polymorphisms, synonymous variants) or not detected by this assay unless otherwise indicated in the interpretation above. The Emory Healthcare GenomOncology Pathology Workbench was used to annotate this case.
