Thursday, April 30, 2026, 11:00 AM–12:00 PM ET
Hear an expert discuss how Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) is utilizing
the oncoReveal® Nexus 21-gene panel to redefine turnaround time and actionable insights
in cancer care. Dr. Ewalt shares a perceptive look at the clinical need for rapid, front-line NGS sequencing, and how a unique, purpose built targeted NGS panel (Pillar Biosciences’ oncoReveal Nexus 21 gene Panel) was developed, validated and implemented clinically by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK-REACT) to complement their current comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) approach.

Webinar presenter Mark Ewalt, MD, Associate Medical Director for Laboratory Operations for Diagnostic Molecular Pathology in the Molecular Diagnostics Service, Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, MSKCC.

This session is designed to improve understanding and application of recent updates to synoptic pathology reporting protocols such as the latest Reporting Template for Reporting Results of Biomarker Testing of Specimens from Patients with Carcinoma of the Breast. These changes reflect evolving clinical guidelines that directly influence diagnostic accuracy and treatment selection in breast cancer care.

Webinar presenters Thaer Khoury, MD, FCAP, Chair, Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Cente, and Colin Murphy,  CEO of mTuitive.

Abstracts

Anatomic Pathology Abstracts, 8/17

August 2017—Analysis of microglandular adenosis and acinic cell carcinoma of the breast: Acinic cell carcinoma is an indolent form of invasive breast cancer, whereas microglandular adenosis has been shown to be a neoplastic proliferation. Both entities display a triple-negative phenotype and may give rise to, as well as display, somatic genomic alterations typical of high-grade triple-negative breast cancers. The authors compared previously published data on eight carcinoma-associated microglandular adenoses and eight acinic cell carcinomas subjected to massively parallel sequencing targeting all exons of 236 genes recurrently mutated in breast cancer or DNA repair related, or both.

Clinical Pathology Abstracts, 8/17

August 2017—Etiology and clinical presentation of birth defects: a population-based study: Birth defects are inborn errors of development and include any structural or functional anomaly that impacts physical, intellectual, or social well-being. They are a considerable and growing clinical and public health challenge. Major birth defects are common and costly. Collectively, they are estimated to occur in one in 33 births, which translates into approximately 7.9 million babies affected worldwide. In the United States alone, the cost of care during a single year (2004) was estimated to be $2.6 billion.

Clinical Pathology Abstracts, 7/17

July 2017—Effects of early tranexamic acid administration on women with postpartum hemorrhage: The leading cause of maternal death is postpartum hemorrhage, which is defined as blood loss of more than 500 mL within 24 hours of giving birth. The majority of such deaths occur in low-income and middle-income countries.

Anatomic Pathology Abstracts, 7/17

July 2017—Potential quality indicators for lymph node staging of colon cancer: Evaluation of 12 or more lymph nodes is used as a quality indicator for adequacy of pathologic examination of colon cancer resections. The authors conducted a study to evaluate the utility of a focused lymph node search in the immediate vicinity of the tumor and a “second-look” protocol for improving lymph node staging in colon cancer.

Molecular Pathology Abstracts, 7/17

July 2017—Immune checkpoint inhibition therapy, such as blockage of PD-1/PD-L1 interaction, has proven effective in many types of cancers. The mechanism underlying this therapy is postulated to involve “disinhibition” of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes that respond to neoantigens expressed by tumor cells. In theory, the larger the number of neoantigens expressed, the greater the immune response resulting from disinhibition.

Anatomic Pathology Abstracts, 6/17

June 2017—Fallopian tube involvement in uterine serous carcinomas: The authors investigated the frequency and histopathologic and immunohistochemical characteristics of tubal involvement in uterine serous carcinoma to clarify the relationship between serous tubal intraepithelial carcinoma (STIC) and uterine serous carcinoma. They prospectively collected and reviewed, for the presence of tubal involvement, cases of the latter with complete tubal examination.

Clinical Pathology Abstracts, 6/17

June 2017—Stem cell divisions, somatic mutations, cancer etiology, and cancer prevention: Cancers are caused by mutations that may be inherited or induced by environmental factors or that may result from DNA replication errors. The mutations due to random mistakes made during normal DNA replication may explain why cancers occur much more commonly in some tissues than others. Approximately three mutations occur every time a normal human stem cell divides.

June 2017—Whole genome single-cell copy number profiling on FFPE tissue samples

Single-cell genomic methods take the concept of analyzing intratumor genetic heterogeneity to its logical conclusion. Traditionally, however, single-cell methods can only be used to analyze fresh or rapidly frozen tissue because formalin fixation and paraffin embedding degrades tumor DNA and cross-links proteins.

Anatomic Pathology Abstracts, 5/17

May 2017—Value of Ki-67 proliferative index in WHO-classified pulmonary carcinoids; Chromosomal abnormalities and genetic changes in uterine smooth muscle tumors; Expression of divergent endodermal lineage markers in yolk sac tumors; Interobserver reproducibility of percent GP4 in prostatic adenocarcinoma on biopsies; MELF pattern invasion: a report of FIGO grade 1 endometrial endometrioid adenocarcinomas; Cost-effectiveness of identifying H. pylori  in gastric biopsies without ancillary stains
