NeoTYPE AML Prognostic Profile
MessageThis test is performed by sequencing the entire coding regions of the genes listed. ASXL1, BCOR, BRAF, CEBPA, CSF3R, DNMT3A, ETV6, EZH2, FLT3, HRAS, IDH1, IDH2, JAK2 including V617F and Exons 12+14, KIT, KMT2A (MLL), KRAS, NPM1, NRAS, PDGFRA, PHF6, PTPN11, RUNX1, SETBP1, STAG2, TET2, TP53 and WT1. FLT3 is performed by multiple methods. Individual genes from a validated list of myeloid genes can be added-on. Test orders include summary interpretation of all results together. The AML Prognostic Profile may also be ordered as reflex after intermediate cytogenetics in the AML Reflex Panel (see separate AML Reflex Panel listing). For patients with therapy-related AML, AML that evolved from MDS, and AML with myelodysplasia, we recommend instead the NeoTYPE MDS/CMML Profile.

Preferred Specimen
•Bone marrow (Preferred): 2 mL in EDTA tube.
•Peripheral blood: 5 mL in EDTA tube.
•FFPE tissue: Paraffin block. Alternatively, send 1 H&E slide plus 5-10 unstained slides cut at 5 or more microns. Please use positively-charged slides and 10% NBF fixative is the recommended fixative. Do not use zinc or mercury fixatives (B5). Highly acidic or prolonged decalcification processes will not yield sufficient nucleic acid to accurately perform molecular studies.

Clinical Significance
Molecular profiling with the NeoTYPE AML Prognostic Profile is appropriate for AML patients with intermediate-risk cytogenetic abnormalities, which is a heterogeneous group. This Profile can refine and improve risk stratification by confirming intermediate risk or reclassifying patients to more favorable or unfavorable risk categories. This change in risk classification may have therapeutic implications. For patients with therapy-related AML, AML that evolved from MDS, and AML with myelodysplasia, we recommend instead the NeoTYPE MDS/CMML Profile.
