This session explores the evolving role of RAS in precision oncology, from the biology of RAS mutations to the expanding landscape of targeted therapies. Through expert presentations, real-world case discussions, and interactive audience polling, participants will examine best practices for RAS biomarker testing across solid tumors, including lung, colorectal, and pancreatic cancers. The session will highlight practical considerations for tissue and liquid biopsy, strategies to address testing gaps, and the importance of multidisciplinary collaboration to ensure timely identification of patients who may benefit from RAS-targeted therapies.

AI virtuosos reveal ins, outs, hopes, doubts

Four views of artificial intelligence in pathology and laboratory medicine. That’s what panelists provided for attendees at the 7th Clinical Lab 2.0 workshop in late February in Chicago. The University of Michigan’s Ulysses G. J. Balis, MD, spoke of AI’s use in laboratory operations and diagnostics. Tom Neufelder of Beckman Coulter spotlighted its use in instruments and postanalytically. Gaurav Sharma, MD, of Henry Ford Health is the skeptic, and the University of Pittsburgh’s Michael Becich, MD, PhD, is the rabid enthusiast who is working to unite pathology’s reports and calls himself a data plumber.

Next-gen sequencing—the anxiety, optimism, and goal

May 2024—Laboratory-developed testing as it relates to next-generation sequencing was up first in the NGS conversation led online by CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle on March 19. Other topics: in-house NGS testing, artificial intelligence, and bioinformatics. “There’s a reality now where bioinformatics is solid, stable, and reliable,” said José Luis Costa, PhD, of Thermo Fisher Scientific.

Cytopathology in focus—POU2F3: A new IHC marker for small cell lung cancer with low neuroendocrine marker expression

May 2024—Classically, immunohistochemical expression of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is characterized by strong expression of neuroendocrine markers, notably synaptophysin, chromogranin A, insulinoma-associated protein 1 (INSM1), and CD-56. However, up to 20 percent of SCLCs demonstrate low or no expression of neuroendocrine (NE) markers by IHC and are termed “NE-low/negative.”

Confronting diagnostic gaps in fungal infection

April 2024—It’s readily apparent in the patient populations at Johns Hopkins Hospital, where he is director of the mycology laboratory. Especially concerning is the increase in Candida auris following the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, both in terms of colonization and infection cases, says Dr. Zhang, who is also associate professor of pathology, Division of Medical Microbiology, Department of Pathology, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. “Since 2022, we suddenly saw an uptick in Candida auris cases across the Johns Hopkins Health System.”

Hybrid practice model beckons as solution

With the technology now available, could and should remote diagnostic pathology, or at least a hybrid model, become more the norm in the future? Timothy Craig Allen, MD, JD, and Casey P. Schukow …

Need for speed in solid tumor molecular testing

April 2024—As the call for fast turnaround of genetic testing results in tumor profiling grows louder, the need for rapid, reliable test methods becomes more pressing. Meanwhile, with new genetic biomarkers emerging at a rapid pace, “everything has tipped the balance toward comprehensive next-generation sequencing analysis,” said Maria E. Arcila, MD, attending pathologist, molecular diagnostics and hematopathology services, Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. In the midst of this complexity, “the ability to provide rapid and simple results is lagging behind,” said Dr. Arcila, in addressing rapid molecular testing in solid tumors at the Association for Molecular Pathology meeting last year.

Microscope to image—big lift but also a blueprint

April 2024—The Food and Drug Administration in February cleared Proscia’s Concentriq AP-Dx digital pathology software for the purpose of primary diagnosis. Shortly after, Proscia cofounder and CEO David West spoke with CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle about achieving new efficiencies, elevating pathology, the heterogeneous nature of the pathology community, and being able to learn from digital pathology’s early adopters. “Laboratories and pathologists going digital don’t have to be first anymore,” West said.
