Additional Information
This is a methods‑based proficiency challenge for laboratories performing targeted next‑generation sequencing of genes or mutation hotspots in hematologic malignancies. Laboratories will be asked to identify somatic single nucleotide variants and small insertions or deletions in some of these genes: ASXL1, ATM, BRAF, CALR, CEBPA, CREBBP, CSF3R, DNMT3A, EZH2, FLT3, IDH1, IDH2, JAK2, KIT, KMT2D, MPL, MYD88, NOTCH1, NPM1, SF3B1, SRSF2, TET2, TP53, U2AF1.
This Survey includes variants present with a variant allele fraction (VAF) potentially as low as 5%.
