Clinical Information
Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
The JAK2 V617F variant is present in 95% to 98% of patients with polycythemia vera, 50% to 60% of patients with primary myelofibrosis (PMF), and 50% to 60% of patients with essential thrombocythemia (ET). Detection of the JAK2 V617F is helps establish the diagnosis of a myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN). However, a negative JAK2 V617F result does not indicate the absence of MPN. Other important molecular markers in BCR::ABL1-negative MPN include CALR exon 9 alterations (20%-30% of PMF and ET) and MPL exon 10 alterations (5%-10% of PMF and 3%-5% of ET). Variants in JAK2, CALR, and MPL are essentially mutually exclusive. A CALR variant is associated with decreased risk of thrombosis in both ET and PMF and confers a favorable clinical outcome in patients with PMF. A triple negative (JAK2 V617F, CALR, and MPL-negative) genotype is considered a high-risk molecular signature in PMF.
Reference Values
Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.
Only orderable as a reflex. For more information see MPNCM / Myeloproliferative Neoplasm, CALR with Reflex to MPL, Varies.
An interpretive report will be provided.
Interpretation
Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
The results will be reported as 1 of the 3 following states:
-Positive for CALR variant
-Positive for MPL variant
-Negative for CALR and MPL variants
Positive variant status is highly suggestive of a myeloid neoplasm and clinicopathologic correlation is necessary in all cases.
Negative variant status does not exclude the presence of a myeloproliferative neoplasm or other neoplasms.
Cautions
Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
A positive result is not specific for a particular subtype of myeloproliferative neoplasm and clinicopathologic correlation is necessary in all cases.
A negative result does not exclude the presence of a myeloproliferative neoplasm or other neoplastic process.

Method Description
Describes how the test is performed and provides a method-specific reference
Genomic DNA is extracted, and Sanger sequencing is used to evaluate for alterations in MPL, exon 10. The sensitivity of this assay is approximately 20%, such that samples containing lower percentages of altered DNA will appear negative.(Unpublished Mayo method)

Day(s) Performed
Outlines the days the test is performed. This field reflects the day that the sample must be in the testing laboratory to begin the testing process and includes any specimen preparation and processing time before the test is performed. Some tests are listed as continuously performed, which means that assays are performed multiple times during the day.
Monday through Friday
Report Available
The interval of time (receipt of sample at Mayo Clinic Laboratories to results available) taking into account standard setup days and weekends. The first day is the time that it typically takes for a result to be available. The last day is the time it might take, accounting for any necessary repeated testing.
Specimen Retention Time
Outlines the length of time after testing that a specimen is kept in the laboratory before it is discarded
Performing Laboratory Location
Indicates the location of the laboratory that performs the test
