Ordering Guidance
Multiple oncology (cancer) gene panels are available. For more information see Hematology, Oncology, and Hereditary Test Selection Guide.
Necessary Information
Pathology report (final or preliminary) at minimum containing the following information must accompany specimen for testing to be performed:
1. Patient name
2. Block number-must be on all blocks, slides, and paperwork (can be handwritten on the paperwork)
3. Tissue collection date
4. Source of the tissue
5. Pathologic diagnosis (final or preliminary)
Specimen Required
This assay requires at least 20% tumor nuclei. However, 40% tumor is preferred.
-Preferred amount of tumor area: 720 mm(2) tissue on up to 20 unstained slides
-Minimum amount of tumor area: 192 mm(2) tissue on up to 20 unstained slides
-Tissue fixation: 10% neutral buffered formalin, not decalcified
-For this test, at least 6 mm x 6 mm areas on 20 unstained slides is preferred: this is approximately equivalent to 720 mm(2). The minimum acceptable area is 3.1 mm x 3.1 mm on 20 unstained slides: approximately equivalent to 192 mm(2).
Preferred:
Specimen Type: Tissue block
Collection Instructions: Submit a formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue block with an acceptable amount of tumor tissue
Acceptable:
Specimen Type: Tissue slide
Slides: 1 stained and 20 unstained
Collection Instructions: Submit 1 hematoxylin and eosin (H and E) stained slide and 20 unstained, nonbaked 5-micron thick sections
Note: The total amount of required tumor can be obtained by scraping up to 20 slides from the same block.
Specimen Type: Cytology slides (direct smears or ThinPrep)
Slides: 2 to 6 slides
Collection Instructions: Submit 2 to 6 stained and coverslipped slides with a preferred total of 10,000 nucleated cells or a minimum of at least 6000 nucleated cells
Note: Glass coverslips are preferred; plastic coverslips are acceptable but will result in longer turnaround times.
Additional Information: Cytology slides will not be returned. An image of the slides will be stored per regulatory requirements.
Useful For
Assisting in tumor profiling for diagnosis, predicting prognosis, and identifying targeted therapies for the treatment and management of patients with solid tumors
Identifying somatic alterations including single nucleotide variants, small deletions/insertions, gene amplifications, homozygous gene deletions, fusions, and splice variants in genes known to be associated with the tumorigenesis of solid tumors
Assessment of microsatellite instability and tumor mutational burden status
