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.

In this webinar, we will examine how immune recognition after allogeneic HCT can influence leukemia relapse and disease progression. The session will highlight the clinical relevance of HLA loss of heterozygosity (LOH), approaches used for its detection, and how LOH findings may support transplant strategies, including considerations for donor selection in subsequent transplantation.

Webinar presenter Alberto Cardoso Martins Lima, PhD, Clinical consulting scientist in histocompatibility,
specializing in allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) at IGEN/AFIP São Paulo and CHC/UFPR in Curitiba, Brazil

AMP Case Reports

AMP case report: Advantages of SNP chromosomal microarray over conventional FISH and DNA tests for methylation-specific PCR-positive Prader-Willi syndrome

March 2020—Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a rare genetic multisystem disorder with a reported incidence of approximately one in 15,000. It is characterized by severe infantile hypotonia with feeding problems, global developmental delay and mental deficiency, behavior problems, small hands and feet, hypogonadism and hyperphagia leading to marked obesity in early childhood, and a characteristic face.

AMP case report: Use of MYD88 sequencing to confirm diagnosis of PIOL in a case with limited sample availability

October 2019—Primary intraocular lymphoma (PIOL) is a rare but aggressive B-cell malignancy usually considered as a subtype of primary central nervous system lymphoma. The most common form of PIOL is primary vitreoretinal lymphoma. PIOL is also known as the masquerade syndrome because it frequently mimics other ocular conditions such as chronic uveitis, which may be steroid-resistant. Its diagnosis is challenging and requires a high degree of suspicion. Here, we present a case of PIOL, the diagnosis of which was clinched based on the identification of a mutation in the myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MYD88) gene.

AMP case report: NGS of a rare metastatic bladder adenocarcinoma

September 2019—Primary bladder adenocarcinoma is a rare vesicle malignancy accounting for up to two percent of malignant neoplasms of the bladder.1 They occur in males more than females and are classically seen in the fifth or sixth decade of life.2 Histologically they are of enteric, mucinous, or mixed types. Morphologically, the enteric type appears identical to a colonic adenocarcinoma and the mucinous type appears as neoplastic cells floating in pools of extravasated mucin. The mixed type is a mixture of the morphologies of the enteric and mucinous types. Immunohistochemically, adenocarcinomas of the urinary bladder classically express CK20 and CDX2.

AMP case report: Coexisting somatic JAK2 V617F pathogenic variant and likely germline calreticulin exon 9 nonpathogenic variant in a patient with newly diagnosed ET

August 2019–Newly discovered pathogenic variants in BCR-ABL1-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (i.e. polycythemia vera, essential thrombocythemia, primary myelofibrosis) led to recent revisions of the World Health Organization diagnostic criteria. Initially JAK2 V617F, MPL (MPL W515K/L), and calreticulin (CALR) exon 9 gene pathogenic variants were deemed mutually exclusive in patients with essential thrombocythemia and primary myelofibrosis. However, coexisting somatic variants in both JAK2 V617F and CALR have been reported with variable frequency, ranging from less than one percent and up to 6.8 percent depending on the employed molecular technique.

AMP case report: Response to second-line osimertinib in primary EGFR p.T790M mutation

May 2019—Non-small cell lung cancer patients with epidermal growth factor receptor activating mutations have excellent response to oral therapy with EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors. However, development of resistance to first- and second-generation TKIs is a well-recognized phenomenon with acquired p.T790M mutation and accounts for most TKI drug resistance. Resistance to EGFR TKI therapy has been described in tumors with coexistent primary p.T790M mutation and an EGFR activating mutation in a small number of patients.

AMP case report: Acute promyelocytic leukemia with cryptic t(15;17) identified by RT-PCR

April 2019—Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is a subtype of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in which promyelocytes predominate. APL accounts for about 10 percent of AML cases, and although APL can be diagnosed at any age, it is most common among young adults with a slight male predominance. APL is defined by the balanced reciprocal translocation (15;17)(q22;q21) between PML and RARA, although variant translocations involving RARA and other partner genes can occur.

AMP case report: FDA-approved DNA blood test for colorectal cancer prompts patient to undergo colonoscopy

March 2019—Colorectal cancer is the third most diagnosed cancer and the second highest cause of cancer mortality in men and women, and in 2016 it accounted for about nine percent of all diagnosed cancers in the United States. When CRC is detected at an early localized stage, the five-year survival rate is 90 percent. With progression to regional disease, five-year survival remains high, at 71 percent.
