Test ID: NGAMT    
Next-Generation Sequencing Acute Myeloid Leukemia, Therapeutic Gene Mutation Panel (FLT3, IDH1, IDH2, TP53)

Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful

Evaluation of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) using a focused 4-gene panel at the time of diagnosis, or possibly relapsed or refractory disease, to help determine optimal (eg, targeted) therapeutic approaches

Genetics Test Information Provides information that may help with selection of the correct genetic test or proper submission of the test request

This test includes next-generation sequencing to evaluate for the following 4 genes: FLT3, IDH1, IDH2, and TP53.

Highlights

Next-generation sequencing detection of somatic gene mutations, including type, pattern, and distribution, has diagnostic, prognostic, and potential therapeutic implications for patients with hematologic cancers, such as acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

 

This test identifies targets for more accurate therapeutic management of AML.

Testing Algorithm Delineates situations when tests are added to the initial order. This includes reflex and additional tests.
