NeoTYPE® DNA & RNA - Lung

  • Next Generation Sequencing (NGS)

NeoTYPE® DNA & RNA - Lung is a targeted next-generation sequencing profile that detects single nucleotide variants (SNV), insertions/deletions (InDels), copy number variants (CNV), and RNA fusions and splice variants in a total of 50 genes (44 genes analyzed by DNA and 19 by RNA), plus microsatellite instability (MSI) and tumor mutation burden (TMB). PD-L1 immunohistochemistry is optional. Results are summarized and details provided for prognostic findings, therapy susceptibility or resistance, available clinical trials, and more.

A microsatellite instability (MSI) NGS result of "indeterminate" will create a reflex to MSI by PCR as long as the tumor percentage is ≥20% and paired normal tissue is available. If the sample is insufficient to produce either DNA or RNA results, the available results will be reported and alternate CPT® Codes may apply.

SNVs/Indels/CNVs (44 genes):
AKT1, ALK, ARAF, ARID1A, ATM, ATR, ATRX, BRAF, CDKN2A, CDKN2B, EGFR, ERBB2*, ERBB3, ERBB4, FBXW7, FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3, FGFR4, KEAP1, KIT, KMT2D, KRAS, MAP2K1, MET*, NF1, NFE2L2, NOTCH1, NRAS, NTRK1, NTRK3, PDGFRA, PIK3CA, PTEN, RB1, RBM10, RET, ROS1, SMAD4, SMARCA4, SMO, STK11, TERT Promoter, and TP53* CNV detection in addition to SNVs and indels. The full coding sequence of each DNA gene is tested.

RNA Fusions (19 genes):
ALK, BRAF, FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3, FGFR4, MET** including METex14 skipping, NOTCH1, NOTCH2, NRG1, NTRK1, NTRK2, NTRK3, PDGFB, PDGFRA, PDGFRB, RAF1, RET, ROS1 ** Splice variant detection in addition to fusions. The full coding sequence of each RNA gene is tested.

Specimen Requirements

A block is preferred for testing: >20% tumor and >5 mm2 of tissue surface area for NGS (~500 tumor cells)(additional 100 neoplastic cells for PD-L1). If submitting 5-micron unstained slides, the following number of slides are requested: Samples with >25 mm2 of tissue: 10 unstained slides (2 sections per slide preferred) Samples with 10-24 mm2 of tissue: 20 unstained slides (2 sections per slide preferred) Please submit 1 additional unstained slide for H&E and 3 additional unstained slides if performing PD-L1 testing.

Storage and Transportation

Storage & Transportation: Use cold pack for transport, making sure cold pack is not in direct contact with specimen. NYS clients please provide date and time of Collection.
