Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia CLL Mutations Detection Panel 2 Test
Introduction
The Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia CLL Mutations Detection Panel 2 Test is a specialized diagnostic tool designed to identify genetic mutations associated with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). This test plays a pivotal role in guiding treatment decisions, monitoring disease progression, and improving patient outcomes. By providing oncologists with critical genetic information, this test enhances personalized medicine approaches in managing CLL.
What the Test Measures
This test detects several key mutations that are clinically significant in the context of CLL, including:
- SF3B1 K700E mutation
- MYD88 L265P mutation
- NOTCH1 p.2514 fs mutation
- PTEN loss at 10q23.31
- 11q deletion
- Trisomy 12
- 13q14 deletion
- 14q deletion
- 17p deletion
- Trisomy 19
Who Should Consider This Test
This test is recommended for individuals diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or those exhibiting symptoms such as:
- Unexplained fatigue
- Swollen lymph nodes
- Frequent infections
- Unintentional weight loss
Additionally, those with a family history of CLL or other hematological malignancies may also benefit from this test.
Benefits of Taking the Test
Understanding the genetic landscape of CLL through this test provides numerous benefits:
- Informs treatment options and strategies tailored to individual genetic profiles.
- Helps predict disease progression and response to therapies.
- Facilitates monitoring of treatment effectiveness and disease recurrence.
Understanding Your Results
Results will be interpreted by qualified oncologists who will discuss the implications of any detected mutations and how they influence treatment decisions. It’s essential to have a follow-up consultation to understand the results fully.
