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.

November 2017—Molecular analysis of colorectal tumors in Lynch syndrome: Lynch syndrome, most often caused by a germline mutation in MSH2, MSH6, MLH1, or PMS2, contributes to a number of malignancies, including colorectal and endometrial cancer.
November 2017—MCM2: an alternative to Ki-67 for measuring breast cancer cell proliferatio: Breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease comprised of a diversity of tumor subtypes that manifest themselves in a wide variety of clinical, pathological, and molecular features.
November 2017—A laboratory owns chemistry analyzers from company X. Company X recommends that its customers use company X’s calibration material to perform their linearity studies, starting with the highest concentration and using the chemistry analyzer’s autodilution feature to provide a total of four measurable concentrations and a final zero point. Does this protocol fulfill CAP checklist requirements?
November 2017—Study finds biotin interference; FDA clears Flu A/B/RSV assay on Hologic’s Panther Fusion; FDA clears Abbott’s Alinity ci-series; Sysmex introduces CyFlow Antibodies for flow cytometry; Test approved for screening Zika in blood donations; New insights into female reproductive tract development
Biotin pharmacokinetic study results: In Anne Paxton’s September 2016 article, “Beauty fad’s ugly downside: test interference,” I stated a commitment from Roche to reduce possible interferences, including biotin, and provide clear test labeling to ensure that physicians and laboratories can mitigate risk.
November 2017—In the October 2017 issue was a report, “Primary pulmonary adenocarcinoma with an unusual molecular profile of the EGFR gene at initial presentation,” written by members of the Association for Molecular Pathology. Here are answers (in bold) to the three “test yourself ” questions that followed that case report.
July 2017—SeraCare Life Sciences launched the industry’s first multiplexed inherited cancer reference material for inherited disease testing by next-generation sequencing, according to the company. The Seraseq Inherited Cancer DNA Mix reference materials were developed to validate the ability of synthetic reference materials to address technically challenging variants.
