Includes
LUNGSEQ Panel Components: AKT1 (p.E17K); BRAF (p.G466V, p.G469A, p.L597V, p.V600E); EGFR (p.G719C/S/A, p.T790M, p.L858R, p.L861Q, exon 19 deletions, exon 20 insertions); HER2 (exon 20 insertions); KRAS (all mutations in codons 12, 13, and 61); MEK (p.Q56P, p.K57N, p.D67N); NRAS (all mutations in codon 61); PIK3CA (p.E542K, p.E545K/Q, p.H1047R); PTEN (p.R233X); ALK.

Please note: KRAS, along with others, is an emerging biomarkers in NSCLC (non-small cell lung cancer) and other tumor types. Currently, in NSCLC the KRAS G12C mutation is prevalent in approximately 13% of patients and represents nearly half (44%) of all KRAS mutations. Investigational agents targeting KRAS G12C are currently in clinical trials.

Limitations
Laboratory test results should always be considered in the context of clinical observations. This test was developed and its performance characteristics determined by med fusion. It has not been cleared or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
(FDA). The FDA has determined that such clearance or approval is not necessary. This test is used for clinical purposes. It should not be regarded as investigational for research. This laboratory is certified under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments
of 1988 (CLIA) as qualified to perform high complexity clinical laboratory testing.


Reference Range
An interpretive report will be provided.


Clinical Significance
This test is intended to be used for the molecular genotyping of tumors from patients with Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer in order to help prioritize treatment.
