Secondary ID
606090Useful For
Detecting, at diagnosis, recurrent common high-risk chromosome abnormalities associated with multiple myeloma or other plasma cell proliferative disorders, using a laboratory-designated probe set algorithm
Identifying prognostic markers associated with multiple myeloma or other plasma cell proliferative disorders
Testing Algorithm
This test includes a charge for the probe application, analysis, and professional interpretation of results for 1 probe set (2 individual fluorescence in situ hybridization [FISH] probes) on pre-sorted plasma cells. Additional charges will be incurred for all reflex or additional probe sets performed. Analysis charges will be incurred based on the number of cells analyzed per probe set. If an insufficient number of plasma cells are available for analysis, no analysis charges will be incurred.
If sufficient plasma cells are identified, the plasma cell FISH panel includes testing for the following abnormalities using the FISH probes listed:
1p loss/1q gain, CDKN2C/1q22 probe set
t(8q24.21;var) or MYC rearrangement, MYC break-apart probe set
t(14q32;var) or IGH rearrangement, IGH break-apart probe set
-17/17p-, TP53/D17Z1 probe set
If an IGH rearrangement is identified, appropriate reflex testing will be performed in an attempt to identify the translocation partner using the FISH probes listed:
t(4;14)(p16.3;q32) IGH::FGFR3 fusion, FGFR3/IGH probe set
t(6;14)(p21;q32) IGH::CCND3 fusion, CCND3/IGH probe set
t(11;14)(q13;q32) or IGH::CCND1 fusion, CCND1/IGH probe set
t(14;16)(q32;q23) IGH::MAF fusion, IGH/MAF probe set
t(14;20)(q32;q12) IGH::MAFB fusion, IGH/MAFB probe set
Hyperdiploidy, as determined by flow cytometry, will be incorporated into the final interpretation. For samples with an unsuccessful flow evaluation for hyperdiploidy and sufficient plasma cells, FISH testing for the following abnormalities will be performed using the probes listed:
+3 (trisomy 3) and/or +7 (trisomy 7), D3Z1/D7Z1 probe set
+9 (trisomy 9) and/or +15 (trisomy 15), D9Z1/D15Z4 probe set
Appropriate ancillary probes may be performed at consultant discretion to render comprehensive assessment. Any additional probes will have the results included within the final report and will be performed at an additional charge.
