What is Chronic Myeloproliferative Disorder (CMPD)?

Chronic Myeloproliferative Disorders (CMPDs) are a group of rare blood cancers that cause an abnormal increase in the number of blood cells produced by the bone marrow. These disorders include:

• Polycythemia Vera (PV): Characterized by an overproduction of red blood cells.
• Essential Thrombocythemia (ET): Marked by an excessive number of platelets.
• Primary Myelofibrosis (PMF): Leads to scarring of the bone marrow, disrupting normal blood cell production.
• Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML): A type of cancer that starts in certain blood-forming cells of the bone marrow.

Understanding the genetic mutations associated with these disorders is crucial for accurate diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment planning.

CMPD Gene Panel Testing Using NGS

The CMPD gene panel test utilizes Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) to analyze multiple genes simultaneously, identifying mutations associated with chronic myeloproliferative disorders. This comprehensive test provides valuable insights into the genetic basis of these disorders, enabling personalized treatment strategies.

Tests Description and Purpose

1. JAK2 Gene Mutation Analysis
   • Description: The JAK2 gene mutation, particularly the V617F mutation, is commonly associated with PV, ET, and PMF. This test detects the presence of this mutation in the patient’s DNA.
   • Purpose: Identifies the JAK2 V617F mutation, aiding in the diagnosis of CMPDs and guiding treatment decisions.
2. CALR Gene Mutation Analysis
   • Description: CALR (calreticulin) gene mutations are found in a significant proportion of ET and PMF patients who do not have the JAK2 mutation. This test detects mutations in the CALR gene.
   • Purpose: Helps diagnose ET and PMF in patients negative for the JAK2 mutation, providing additional diagnostic clarity.
3. MPL Gene Mutation Analysis
   • Description: Mutations in the MPL (myeloproliferative leukemia virus oncogene) gene are associated with ET and PMF. This test screens for MPL mutations.
   • Purpose: Detects MPL gene mutations, contributing to the diagnosis of ET and PMF and assisting in the development of targeted therapies.
4. CSF3R Gene Mutation Analysis
   • Description: The CSF3R (colony-stimulating factor 3 receptor) gene is associated with certain subtypes of CMPDs, particularly chronic neutrophilic leukemia (CNL) and atypical CML. This test identifies mutations in the CSF3R gene.
   • Purpose: Aids in diagnosing CNL and atypical CML, enhancing the accuracy of genetic profiling in CMPDs.
5. SETBP1 Gene Mutation Analysis
   • Description: Mutations in the SETBP1 (SET binding protein 1) gene are linked to atypical CML and other myeloid disorders. This test detects SETBP1 mutations.
   • Purpose: Identifies SETBP1 gene mutations, providing important information for the diagnosis and management of atypical CML and related conditions.

Benefits of CMPD Gene Panel Testing

• Comprehensive Genetic Profiling: The CMPD gene panel test provides a thorough analysis of multiple genes, offering a complete genetic profile of the patient’s disorder.
• Personalized Treatment: Identifying specific genetic mutations helps healthcare providers tailor treatment plans to the patient’s unique genetic makeup.
• Early Diagnosis: Genetic testing can detect mutations before clinical symptoms appear, allowing for early intervention and better disease management.
• Prognostic Information: Understanding the genetic basis of CMPDs aids in predicting disease progression and patient outcomes.
