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.

June 2022—Appendiceal orifice mucosae often appear inflamed endoscopically, even when other colonic segments appear normal. Histological findings in biopsy samples taken from endoscopically abnormal mucosae may simulate a variety of inflammatory colitides.
June 2022—Sickle cell disease is caused by a point mutation in the gene encoding β-globin and is characterized by chronic hemolytic anemia, painful vaso-occlusive events, and increased risk of early death. The disease can be managed using supportive therapy, but this does not halt its progression.
June 2022—Laboratories seeking a means to query their repository of archival anatomic pathology reports would do well to follow the advice of former tennis star Arthur Ashe: “Start where you are, use what you have, do what you can.”

Q. Can bronchoalveolar lavage specimens from multiple lobes be pooled for culture? Can multiple biopsies from the same joint be pooled for culture? Read answer.
Q. We verify our reference intervals with each new reagent lot for coagulation tests (PT, APTT, fibrinogen, and TT). What difference in values between lots necessitates establishing a new reference interval?
A CAP TODAY Q&A from January 2015 mentions limits within 1.5 seconds of each other between new and old reagent lots for human recombinant PT. What about limits for APTT and fibrinogen? Read answer.
June 2022—The CAP issued a statement on April 5 in support of the ADVANCE study, which hopes to end discriminatory practices based on sexual identity and/or sexual orientation in donor risk assessments and deferral periods for blood donation. Originally, the FDA instituted such discriminatory criteria on the assumption that potential donors who are gay and bisexual men who have sex with men are at an increased risk of transmission of communicable diseases, such as human immunodeficiency virus. If the results of the ADVANCE study prove this antiquated idea false, the FDA will hopefully amend the official guidance on donor eligibility for blood donation.
June 2022—Daiichi Sankyo and AstraZeneca’s Enhertu (fam-trastuzumab deruxtecan-nxki) in April was granted breakthrough therapy designation for treating patients with unresectable or metastatic HER2-low (IHC 1+ or IHC 2+/ISH-negative) breast cancer who have received a prior systemic therapy in the metastatic setting or developed recurrence during or within six months of completing adjuvant chemotherapy.
