Test Id : EOSMF

This test includes a charge for the probe application, analysis, and professional interpretation of results for one probe set (2 individual fluorescence in situ hybridization [FISH] probes or 3 individual FISH probes). Additional charges will be incurred for all reflex or additional probe sets performed.

If the patient is being treated for known abnormalities, indicate the abnormality and which probes should be used.

When specified, any of the following probes will be performed:

4q12 deletion or rearrangement, FIP1L1, CHIC2, PDGFRA

4q12 rearrangement, PDGFRA

5q32 rearrangement, PDGFRB

t(5;12), PDGFRB/ETV6

8p11.2 rearrangement, FGFR1

9p24.1 rearrangement, JAK2

9q34 rearrangement, ABL1

t(9;22), BCR/ABL1

Appropriate ancillary probes may be performed at consultant discretion to render comprehensive assessment. Any additional probes will have the results included within the final report and will be performed at an additional charge.

For more information see Eosinophilia: Bone Marrow Diagnostic Algorithm.

This test is intended for instances when limited chronic eosinophilia fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) probes are needed. The FISH probes to be analyzed must be specified on the request, otherwise test processing may be delayed in order to determine the intended analysis. If specific probes are not included with this test request, this test may be canceled and automatically reordered by the laboratory as EOSDF / Chronic Eosinophilia, Diagnostic FISH, Varies.

If the entire chronic eosinophilia FISH panel is preferred, order EOSDF / Chronic Eosinophilia, Diagnostic, FISH, Varies.

Paraffin embedded tissue testing is not available for these probe sets.

This test is ordered for targeted FISH probes to be evaluated based on specific abnormalities or on abnormalities identified in the diagnostic sample.

At diagnosis, a EOSDF / Chronic Eosinophilia, Diagnostic, FISH, Varies panel and a conventional chromosome study should be performed.

1. A list of probes requested for analysis is required. Probes available for this test are listed in the Testing Algorithm section.

2. A reason for testing should be with each specimen. The laboratory will not reject testing if this information is not provided; however, appropriate testing and interpretation may be compromised or delayed. If not provided, an appropriate indication for testing may be entered by Mayo Clinic Laboratories.

3. A pathology and/or flow cytometry report may be requested by the laboratory to optimize testing and aid in interpretation of results.

Detecting a neoplastic clone associated with the common chromosome abnormalities seen in patients with myeloid/lymphoid neoplasms with eosinophilia and gene rearrangement (including PDGFRA, PDGFRB, FGFR1, JAK2, and ABL1) using specified probes set

The myeloid/lymphoid neoplasms with eosinophilia and rearrangements of PDGFRA, PDGFRB, FGFR1, and JAK2 represent a significantly diverse group of hematologic malignancies. Despite the disparate clinical presentations, which include chronic myeloid neoplasms (chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, chronic myeloproliferative neoplasms, chronic eosinophilic leukemia) versus more acute myeloid and lymphoid neoplasms (acute myeloid leukemia, B- and T-lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma and mixed phenotypic acute leukemias), this diagnostic subgroup shares rearrangements involving 4 specific gene regions: PDGFRA, PDGFRB, FGFR1, and JAK2.

While conventional chromosome studies may detect many of the rearrangements associated with these gene rearrangements, several are cytogenetically "cryptic", including the most common abnormality involving PDGFRA activation. This one megabase submicroscopic, intrachromosomal deletion results in loss of the CHIC2 gene region with subsequent fusion of neighboring genes FIP1L1 and PDGFRA. In addition to this more common, cryptic deletion, the PDGFRA gene has many translocation partners described (at least 15) that similarly result in PDGFRA upregulation.

The PDGFRB, FGFR1, and JAK2 gene regions similarly have numerous translocation/inversion partners described, at least 50 for PDGFRB, 10 for FGFR1, and 40 for JAK2. Despite the significant heterogeneity in gene partners, the identification of PDGFRA, PDGFRB, FGFR1, and JAK2 rearrangements is critical for disease categorization and potential therapeutic intervention. Both PDGFRA and PDGFRB have the potential for response to targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapies such as imatinib mesylate. Similarly, JAK2 rearrangements have the potential for response to targeted inhibitor therapy. Rearrangements of FGFR1 are typically more aggressive and less responsive to targeted inhibitors.

While not formally included in the World Health Organization categorization of myeloid/lymphoid neoplasms with PDGFRA, PDGFRB, FGFR1, or JAK2 rearrangements, rearrangements of the ABL1 gene, other than with the BCR locus, can result in similar clinical phenotypes. Thus, the ABL1 gene region has been included in this fluorescence in situ hybridization panel evaluation to appropriately interrogate this gene region, particularly since these patients may not be identified by conventional karyotype analysis and may significantly benefit from targeted tyrosine kinase therapies.

An interpretive report will be provided.

A neoplastic clone is detected when the percent of cells with an abnormality exceeds the normal reference range for any given probe.

This test is not approved by the US Food and Drug Administration, and it is best used as an adjunct to clinical and pathologic information.

Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is not a substitute for conventional chromosome studies because the latter detects many chromosome abnormalities associated with other hematological disorders that would be missed by this FISH panel test.

Bone marrow is the preferred sample type for this FISH test. If bone marrow is not available, a blood specimen may be used if there are neoplastic cells in the blood specimen (as verified by a hematopathologist).

Each probe was independently tested and verified on unstimulated peripheral blood and bone marrow specimens. Normal cutoffs were calculated based on the results of 25 normal specimens. Each probe set was evaluated to confirm the probe set detected the abnormality it was designed to detect.

This test is performed using commercially available and laboratory-developed probes. Rearrangements or deletions involving CHIC2, PDGFRA, PDGFRB, FGFR1, JAK2, and ABL1 are detected using a tri or dual-color break-apart (BAP) strategy probe. Dual-color, dual-fusion fluorescence in situ hybridization (D-FISH) strategy probe sets are used in reflex testing when rearrangements of the PDGFRB and ABL1 gene are detected. For enumeration and BAP strategy probe sets, 100 interphase nuclei are scored; 200 interphase nuclei are scored when D-FISH probes are used. All results are expressed as the percent abnormal nuclei.(Unpublished Mayo method)
