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.

Clinical Significance
CCND1 gene rearrangement is frequently observed in B-cell malignancies due to t(11;14) resulting in juxtaposition of the CCND1 gene at band 11q13 to an IGH-enhancer sequence at band 14q32. This leads to the CCND1 gene deregulation and, possibly, overexpression. The translocation, t(11;14) is frequently associated with mantle cell lymphoma, but it also may be seen in B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia, prolymphocytic leukemia, multiple myeloma and some large cell lymphomas.
