@theMMRF @MMRFTeam4Cures An incredible experience. 30 miles of hiking with new friends. The best part: the team raised $75K for MM research! So grateful for the opportunity @GD_251

Standardizing FISH testing in myeloma is critical to reduce lab to lab variability and misinterpretation. We propose guidelines for FISH panel design and reporting to align with the new IMS/IMWG risk stratification. @CG_Consortium @MayoMyeloma.

A recently published paper supports the reporting of these unbalanced MYC-R as positive. Nice to see additional support for unbalanced MYC-R as being real abnormalities .

We have to reach physicians in the community to see how we can get their input. Can @ACCCBuzz help to get this survey out and partnering with them. Apart from risk stratification, can we report that BCL2 inhibitors can be used in the FISH report. @PedalheadPHX @lbaughn.

Are you a myeloma clinician who orders FISH tests? If so, the CGC Plasma Cell Neoplasm Working Group is interested in your feedback! FISH reports can be confusing and we want to learn about your experiences to help optimize cytogenetic reports. Survey:

We propose interpreting unbalanced MYC-r by FISH in HGBCL as “likely positive”. I hope future testing will incorporate WGS and/or RNA seq.

When we surveyed cytogeneticists, we found significant variability in how unbalanced MYC FISH results were interpreted. We discovered using WGS that most of the unbalanced signals represented true MYC-r.

Unbalanced MYC rearrangements are found in about 12% of HGBCLs. We asked: do these represent real MYC rearrangements. Interpretation for a cytogeneticist is challenging.
