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.

December 2014

Put It on the Board, 12/14

December 2014—Crizotinib shrinks tumors in ROS1-positive NSCLC: A recently published New England Journal of Medicine study that shows promise for the treatment of ROS1-positive lung cancer patients also demonstrates the value of advanced diagnostics, says John Iafrate, MD, PhD, the article’s senior author. Thirty-six of 50 study participants whose non-small cell lung cancer was driven by a rearrangement of the ROS1 gene saw their tumors shrink significantly when they received treatment with the drug crizotinib (Xalkori). The drug suppressed tumor growth in another nine ROS1-positive patients in the study, a phase one trial.

Q&A column, 12/14

December 2014—What are the legal ramifications for medical technologists or medical laboratory technicians if they release results on suboptimal specimens on the insistence of physicians? What are the consensus recommendations for the diagnosis of eosinophilic esophagitis, eosinophilic gastroenteritis, and eosinophilic colitis? What is the clinical significance of increased lymphocytes in esophageal biopsy? Has there been a significant increase in diagnosed eosinophilic disorders over the past 10 or so years?

Full speed ahead through tight corners

December 2014—Like sailing ships, laboratories hope for fair winds as they chart their business plans. But smooth sailing is never a sure bet; rough sea conditions are an ever-present possibility that can make ships hard to steer. Perhaps the tide is with the vessel but the winds are against it. That’s a situation that could aptly describe a health care system facing a growing patient population at the same time that hospital admissions and reimbursement are in decline.

Newsbytes, 12/14

December 2014—Why lab report formatting remains a work in progress: As a guiding principle, “form follows function” may be as appropriate for pathology reports as it was for 20th century architecture and industrial design. So, if the primary function of a lab report is to communicate diagnostic information, it should be designed and formatted to make it easy for the reader to assimilate data that will impact patient care. But achieving this result may require due diligence, say two pathologists who have embraced the cause of better-looking, more effective reports.

Clinical Pathology Selected Abstracts, 12/14

December 2014—Prevalence of antimicrobial use in U.S. acute care hospitals: Inappropriate antimicrobial drug use is associated with adverse events in hospitalized patients as well as the emergence of resistant pathogens. Targeting effective interventions to improve antimicrobial use in the acute care setting may help guide safe and effective therapy while reducing the risks and complications of resistant and difficult-to-treat pathogens.

Anatomic Pathology Selected Abstracts, 12/14

December 2014—Value of autopsies in the era of high-tech medicine: Although the autopsy is still the gold standard for quality assessment of clinical diagnoses, autopsy rates have declined to less than 10 percent. The authors conducted a study to investigate the value of autopsies in the era of high-tech medicine by determining the frequency of discrepancies between clinical and autopsy diagnoses. The authors classified all adult autopsy cases (n=460) performed at the Symbiant Pathology Expert Centre in Holland, in 2007 and from 2012 to 2013, as having major or minor discrepancy or total concordance.

Labs ramp up for Ebola patients, specimens

December 2014—Clinical laboratories have made impressive headway in their Ebola preparedness, though their plans are shaping up in different ways. That’s due, in part, to varying opinions about how to manage a dangerous and unpredictable virus. “We are really learning as we go along with this,” says D. Jane Hata, PhD, D(ABMM), director of microbiology and serology at Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Fla. For years there has been talk of the possibility of an airplane passenger bringing Ebola into the U.S., she says. “But we are on the ground now and we’re all actively planning to deal with this.”
