This antibody labels the cytoplasm of histiocytes and neoplasms of histiocytic origin, as well as monocytes and macrophages of human colon, tonsil and skin.

BCL-10 is an N-terminal CARD (Caspase Recruitment Domain) containing protein that is involved in the adaptive immune response. It is also a substrate for MALT1. Mutations in the gene can lead to lymphoma, mucosa-associated lymphoid type. It is useful in the assessment of pancreatic tumors to distinguish acinar cell carcinoma from primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET), solid pseudopapillary tumor (SPT) and pancreatic blastoma (PB).

CancerTYPE ID is a proprietary molecular cancer classifier used to identify unknown or unclear tumor types and subtypes in patients with metastatic cancer. When ordered through NeoGenomics, classification with CancerTYPE ID is followed by tumor profiling for actionable biomarkers using the NeoTYPE^® Cancer Profile most appropriate for the tumor type identified by Cancer TYPE ID.^† Tech-only options for FISH and IHC within the NeoTYPE Cancer Profile are available.

CancerTYPE ID is performed and billed separately by NeoGenomics’ contracted reference laboratory, Biotheranostics, Inc., an independent CLIA-licensed and CAP-accredited reference laboratory. The test uses quantitative RT-PCR to measure the expression of 92 genes in the patient’s specimen and classifies the tumor by matching the gene expression profile to a database of more than 2000 known tumor types and subtypes. Using this technology, CancerTYPE ID can identify 50 different tumor types and subtypes, covering >95% of all solid tumors based on incidence.¹ The test reports a main cancer type with the highest probability, as well as a list of tumor types that may be ruled out with 95% confidence. 

^†CancerTYPE ID may be ordered as a stand-alone test directly from Biotheranostics, Inc. Please see www.cancertypeid.com.

Testing will be put on hold until signatures are received.

INSM1 is a transcription factor that is a sensitive and specific marker for neuroendocrine tumors.  It is a nuclear stain, and is as good if not better than synaptophysin and is superior to chromogranin. It is rarely expressed on adenocarcinoma or squamous cell carcinomas without neuroendocrine differentiation. 

Ki67 is a nuclear protein that is expressed in proliferating cells. Ki67 is preferentially expressed during late G1, S, M, and G2 phases of the cell cycle, while cells in the G0 (quiescent) phase are negative for this protein. Increased proliferative activity is associated with more aggressive tumor and decreased disease-free survival period.
Note: Computer-assisted image analysis for Ki-67 is only validated for breast cancer and neuroendocrine carcinoma.

Bi-directional sequencing of exon 4 of the KRAS gene corresponding to amino acids  R97 through Q150.  Codon 117 and 146 mutations are detected. For solid tumors, tumor enrichment is performed before extraction.  This test may be ordered separately or by reflex after standard KRAS Mutation Analysis. Testing is available separately or in combination with BRAF, HRAS and NRAS in the RAS/RAF Panel. Testing is approved for specimens from the state of New York.

Bi-directional sequencing of exons 2 and 3 of the KRAS gene. High-sensitivity sequencing is used for enhanced detection of mutations in codons 12, 13, 59, and 61.  For solid tumors, tumor enrichment is performed before extraction. Testing is available separately or in combination with BRAF, HRAS and NRAS in the RAS/RAF Panel. Testing is approved for specimens from the state of New York.  

Bi-directional Sanger sequencing of MET is performed using PCR primers designed to target hotspot mutations in exons 14, 16, 17 and 19.

Mucin 1 (MUC1) is a high molecular weight glycoprotein that is found on the apical surface of many glandular epithelia, including the gastrointestinal, respiratory, urinary, reproductive tracts and some hematopoietic cell lineages. MUC1 has been implicated in progression of numerous types of cancer, including breast, colon, lung, gastric and pancreatic cancers. MUC1 expression in tumors is greatly increased and accompanied by altered aberrant expression patterns that become more diffuse when compared to the normal apically restricted pattern.

The NeoARRAY SNP/Cytogenetic Profile is available for hematological, solid tumor, and pregnancy loss indications. With the best genome-wide coverage available, this test employs an enhanced SNP microarray with over 2.6 million SNP and non-polymorphic markers for detection of copy number variants (deletions, duplications, and amplifications) and loss of heterozygosity or uniparental disomy (LOH or UPD) in any chromosome. Sensitivity and specificity for detection of copy number variants >400 kb is >99%. Testing may not reliably detect abnormalities present in less than 20% of the cells tested. Balanced rearrangements, including translocations and inversions, are not detectable by this method. Clients may request NeoARRAY on POC as the sole test, or they may order POC cytogenetics with reflex to NeoARRAY if the POC culture fails or if cytogenetic results are normal. For reflex orders, if there is no cell attachment or growth after 14 days in culture, a cytogenetics failure report will be issued and NeoARRAY will be performed. If there is limited cell attachment after 14 days in culture, NeoGenomics will contact the client for instructions. When array testing is not performed, a fee will be charged for DNA extraction (which is performed upon specimen receipt).

Bi-directional sequencing of TP53 exons 4-9.

Tumor Mutation Burden (TMB) testing at NeoGenomics measures the number of non-synonymous DNA coding sequence changes per megabase of sequenced DNA. Testing is performed routinely within the NeoTYPE™ Discovery Profile, can be added to any of the NeoTYPE Solid Tumor Profiles, and is available as a stand-alone test. Results are reported as low, high intermediate, and high upper quartile in reference to the median genomic TMB value determined across a wide variety of tumor types in an internal validation study. TMB is also called tumor mutational burden or tumor mutation load (TML).
