Molecular Pathology

Pathology navigators bring molecular test efficiencies

November 2023—Few things in the laboratory can do so much at once: boost histotechnologist productivity, safeguard tissue, offer a career path and help retain staff, keep watch on test utilization, and reduce the number of calls to pathologists and turnaround time, all while advocating for the patient.

Fast or comprehensive? Lab offers both for NSCLC

October 2023—For molecular testing in oncology, the choice is often fast or slow. PCR-based platforms are rapid, and comprehensive genomic profiling by next-generation sequencing is slower, and each has its pros and cons.

AMP case report: Identification of multiple germline cancer predisposing gene variants in a single patient during tumor sequencing analysis

October 2023—Next-generation sequencing of tumor tissue has important implications in solid and hematologic malignancies because it can identify genomic variants that provide diagnostic, prognostic, and predictive information to guide clinical management. Variants identified on tumor sequencing can be classified as somatic (acquired after conception) or inherited through germline.

AMP case report: Lung micropapillary adenocarcinomas revisited

September 2023—CAP TODAY and the Association for Molecular Pathology have teamed up to bring molecular case reports to CAP TODAY readers. AMP members write the reports using clinical cases from their own practices that show molecular testing’s important role in diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment. The following report comes from Henry Ford Hospital. If you would like to submit a case report, please send an email to the AMP at amp@amp.org. For more information about the AMP and all previously published case reports, visit www.amp.org.

Genetic counseling within the laboratory: For oncology cases, lab’s consult service plugs gap

September 2023—What happens when an oncologist cannot confidently determine what type of genetic test to order for their patient? Where can a provider turn if they do not know whether a genetic variant is clinically actionable? As genetic testing becomes a more integral part of personalized medicine and health care in general, there is a growing need to bridge the gap between those skilled in molecular diagnostics and those on the patient-facing side of care. In response to this need, the Center for Integrated Diagnostics (CID), a high-complexity molecular diagnostics laboratory at Massachusetts General Hospital, created its Consultation Service.

AMP case report: Small intragenic structural variants in SATB2-associated syndrome

CAP TODAY and the Association for Molecular Pathology have teamed up to bring molecular case reports to CAP TODAY readers. AMP members write the reports using clinical cases from their own practices that show molecular testing’s important role in diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment. The following report comes from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis.

First a probe purchase, then an academic consortium

July 2023—Bringing new technology into laboratories is important for pathology as a field and for patients—and only getting more difficult. “Each new wave of technology is more complicated than the last,” Jeremy Segal, MD, PhD, said at the USCAP meeting this spring.

AMP case report: A germline GATA2 c.121C>G (p.P41A) variant in a patient with an unusual acute promyelocytic leukemia

July 2023—A germline GATA2 c.121C>G (p.P41A) variant in a patient with an unusual acute promyelocytic leukemia CAP TODAY and the Association for Molecular Pathology have teamed up to bring molecular case reports to CAP TODAY readers.

Colorectal cancer next on HER2 horizon

May 2023—Behold the common coin. Note its two sides, its easy flippability. Here is Joseph Pizzolato, MD, with the first coin toss. Given the expanded use of biomarkers with a variety of tumors, and constantly evolving assays, how hard is it for medical oncologists to navigate testing? “It’s not difficult at all now,” says a cheerful Dr. Pizzolato, medical director of the comprehensive therapeutic unit of Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, University of Miami Health System, as well as medical director of the Aventura satellite at Sylvester. With third-party companies integrating test ordering directly into electronic medical records, he adds, “It’s getting even easier to order tests and see the results.” Agreed, says his colleague Rhonda Yantiss, MD, director of surgical pathology, Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. And therein lies the problem. “It’s kind of a mess,” she says. In practice, precision medicine is becoming both more and less precise.
