Determine DNA variants and their allele frequencies in genes commonly mutated in myeloid malignancies and related disorders, at diagnosis, relapse and during remission. This assay serves as a primary approach and a complement to morphology, immunophenotyping by flow cytometry and cytogenetic workups.

Additional Information
This Myeloid Multi Gene Panel (MMGP) Next Generation Sequencing test detects and determines the variant allele frequency (VAF) of DNA variants in exons and flanking splice sites in 52 genes (listed below) that are commonly mutated in myeloid malignancies. Pathogenicity of the detected DNA variants are reported based on established criteria in databases such as ClinVar and COSMIC, while Variants of Unknown Significance (VUS) are reported based on their potential disruption of gene and/or protein function and whether they are unlisted or occur at very low allelic frequencies in general population databases such as GnomAD.
This assay is particularly relevant for the detection of DNA variants at diagnosis of suspected myeloid malignancies and for minimal residual disease (MRD) monitoring at relapse and during remission. The sensitivity of mutation detection of this assay routinely down to 1% variant allele frequency (VAF) includes FLT3-ITD and other variants, which can also be reported at < 1% when monitoring for previously detected variants in the same patient.
To determine the FLT3 ITD allele ratio, an automatic reflex FLT3 assay by capillary electrophoresis (CE) will be ordered (with an additional charge) if a FLT3 ITD is detected and the FLT3 CE assay was not previously ordered on the same specimen. To skip this reflex test, please call the lab directly at (415)514-8488 or email ClinLabMDx@ucsf.edu.
