Overview

The purpose of the CLL NGS Panel is to provide a comprehensive molecular and cytogenetic profile of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia to aid in diagnosis, prognosis, and therapeutic decision-making. It helps identify high-risk genetic aberrations such as TP53 mutations and del(17p) that predict resistance to standard chemotherapy, enabling oncologists to choose targeted therapies like ibrutinib or venetoclax. IGVH mutation status distinguishes between mutated (better prognosis) and unmutated (poorer prognosis) CLL. FISH and karyotyping reveal chromosomal abnormalities that influence disease progression. Overall, this panel supports personalized management of CLL patients.

Understanding Your Results

The CLL NGS Panel results provide a comprehensive genomic profile that guides prognosis and therapy. Interpretation should be performed by a qualified oncologist or geneticist.
📊

del(17p) or TP53 mutation

High-risk; poor response to chemoimmunotherapy; consider targeted agents (BTK inhibitors, BCL2 inhibitors)

📊

del(11q)

Intermediate-high risk; may benefit from targeted therapy

📊

Trisomy 12

Intermediate risk; variable prognosis

📊

del(13q) as sole abnormality

Good prognosis; standard chemoimmunotherapy may be effective

📊

Unmutated IGVH

Poor prognosis; more aggressive disease

📊

Mutated IGVH

Better prognosis; indolent course

📊

Complex karyotype

High-risk; associated with poorer outcomes

⚠️ When to Consult a Doctor:

Consult your oncologist if you have been diagnosed with CLL or if you experience symptoms such as persistent fatigue, unexplained weight loss, night sweats, or enlarged lymph nodes. The results of this panel should be discussed with your doctor to plan appropriate treatment.

Limitations

  • FISH only detects targeted abnormalities; other cryptic aberrations may be missed
  • Karyotyping requires viable cells; culture failure may occur
  • IGVH analysis may be inconclusive in cases with low B-cell count
  • NGS TP53 analysis may miss large deletions or deep intronic variants
  • Results should be interpreted in conjunction with clinical and pathological findings

Risks & Considerations

  • Minimal risk of bruising or bleeding at venipuncture site
  • Rare risk of infection
  • No radiation exposure from blood sample

Interfering Factors

  • Recent chemotherapy or radiation therapy may affect cell viability and karyotyping
  • Insufficient sample volume or poor sample quality
  • Clotted blood sample
  • Delayed processing of sample
  • Maternal cell contamination in FFPE blocks

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the cost of the CLL NGS Panel?
The cost is INR 39000, which includes FISH, karyotyping, IGVH mutation analysis, and NGS TP53 mutation analysis. Free home sample collection is provided for online bookings.
What sample is required for this test?
Peripheral blood (2 mL Sodium Heparin + 2 mL EDTA) and FFPE block are required.
Is fasting required before the test?
No, fasting is not required.
How long does it take to get the report?
Reports are available within 3 weeks.
What is the purpose of IGVH mutation analysis?
IGVH mutation status is a prognostic marker in CLL. Mutated IGVH is associated with better prognosis, while unmutated IGVH indicates a more aggressive disease.
What does TP53 mutation analysis detect?
It detects mutations in the TP53 gene, which are associated with poor response to chemotherapy and guide the use of targeted therapies.
Can this test be done without a doctor's prescription?
No, a doctor's prescription is mandatory for this test.
Is home sample collection available?
Yes, free home sample collection is available for online bookings across major cities in India.
What is the significance of FISH in CLL?
FISH detects chromosomal abnormalities like del(17p), del(11q), del(13q), and trisomy 12, which are important for prognosis and treatment planning.
What is the turnaround time for the test?
The turnaround time is 3 weeks.
Are there any risks associated with the test?
The test involves a simple blood draw, which carries minimal risks like bruising or infection.
How should the sample be transported?
Blood samples should be transported at room temperature or with a cool pack for long transit. FFPE blocks should be shipped in a sealed container.
