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.

2016 Issues

Non-melanocytic lesions—preventing pitfalls in diagnosis

February 2016—Musician Lauryn Hill has been quoted as saying, “Reality is easy. It’s deception that’s the hard work.” That viewpoint just might resonate with pathologists who sometimes have to diagnose deceiving-looking skin lesions. In a talk at CAP ’15, Deborah L. Cook, MD, professor of pathology and director of dermatopathology at the University of Vermont, shared several case examples that illustrate that investigative effort. All of them involve non-melanocytic malignancies known to mimic benign entities and the converse—“the proverbial wolf in sheep’s clothing” and “sheep in wolf’s clothing,” as she puts it.

Anatomic Pathology Abstracts, 2/16

February 2016—Subtype classification of lung adenocarcinoma in patients undergoing complete resection: The classification for invasive lung adenocarcinoma by the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer, American Thoracic Society, European Respiratory Society, and World Health Organization is based on the predominant histologic pattern—lepidic, papillary, acinar, micropapillary, or solid—present in the tumor.

Newsbytes, 2/16

February 2016—IT staffing considerations for the NGS laboratory: For the past five years, the University of Washington Department of Laboratory Medicine has been expanding its next-generation sequencing capabilities, adding the latest technologies and offering new tests in genetics, cancer, and infectious disease—and honing its information technology staffing skills along the way.

Q&A column, 2/16

February 2016— I am a practicing board-certified pathologist and I have one cytotechnologist to screen Pap tests. She is moving to another city, and I must decide whether to send all Paps to a reference laboratory or to another lab just for screening and then returned to me for sign-out of normal and abnormal Paps.

Put It on the Board, 2/16

February 2016—FDA open to whole-slide imaging as class II device: The Digital Pathology Association says that manufacturers interested in marketing whole-slide imaging devices for primary diagnosis in the U.S. should submit de novo applications to the Food and Drug Administration.

Put It on the Board, 1/16

January 2016—2016 may be year of action on laboratory-developed tests: During a session at the Association for Molecular Pathology’s annual meeting in November, Rep. Michael Burgess, MD (R-Tex.), said he expects the Food and Drug Administration to issue its long-awaited final guidance on laboratory-developed tests during the first quarter of 2016.

When to fire up large multiplex PCR?

January 2016—Multiplex PCR panel tests for viral and gastrointestinal pathogens as well as the rapid identification of bloodstream infections can detect more pathogens more quickly than traditional microbiology methods.The question that continues to bedevil is how to offer this newer breed of tests.

Rebooting IHC for companion diagnostics

January 2016—Immunotherapy has taken cancer treatment by storm. And given the number of proteins that are targets for immunotherapy and other targeted therapies, immunohistochemistry should theoretically be the ideal method for classifying patients as responders versus non-responders. But there are several reasons why IHC hasn’t reached this status within personalized medicine, says Clive R. Taylor, MD, DPhil, professor of pathology in the Keck School of Medicine of the University of Southern California.

In next-gen sequencing, panel versus exome

January 2016—As next-generation sequencing takes its place in clinical laboratory medicine, a difference is developing between its use when there is a defined phenotype, as with hereditary oncology syndromes or hereditary cardiovascular disorders, and its use in diagnosing hereditary developmental disorders. In oncology, targeted panels remain the optimal mode of application.

From the President’s Desk: Flexibility matters, 1/16

January 2016—Pathology is becoming more vital, complex, variable, integrated, and interactive. Once upon a time, we trained to enter practice. Today, we must train to be continually trained. Our ability to stay current with science and explain its potential is a critical variable in the quality of care our patients receive. As a department chair and laboratory medical director, I encourage each member of our group to embrace a coordinated approach.
