Understanding Your Results

The PDGFRß (CMML) test results indicate the presence or absence of PDGFRß gene rearrangements. Interpretation should be done by a qualified healthcare professional in conjunction with clinical context.
📊

Positive

PDGFRß gene rearrangement detected, consistent with Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia (CMML). Further evaluation and treatment planning are recommended.

📊

Negative

No PDGFRß gene rearrangement detected. Clinical correlation is advised to rule out other conditions.

⚠️ When to Consult a Doctor:

If you experience symptoms such as persistent fatigue, unexplained weight loss, easy bruising, or enlarged spleen, consult a hematologist or oncologist for evaluation and possible testing.

Limitations

  • ⚠This test detects only PDGFRß mutations; other genetic abnormalities may require additional testing.
  • ⚠Results should be correlated with clinical findings and other diagnostic tests.

Risks & Considerations

  • ●For bone marrow biopsy: risk of infection, bleeding, or discomfort at the collection site.
  • ●For blood draw: minor pain, bruising, or dizziness.

Interfering Factors

  • ●Sample contamination
  • ●Improper sample storage or handling
  • ●Hemolyzed or clotted samples

What is the PDGFRß (CMML) test?
The PDGFRß (CMML) test is a genetic test that detects mutations in the PDGFRß gene associated with Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia (CMML), a type of blood cancer.
Why is the PDGFRß test recommended?
It is recommended to diagnose CMML, assess prognosis, and guide targeted treatment options for patients with suspected or confirmed disease.
What are the symptoms of CMML?
Symptoms include fatigue, weakness, shortness of breath, fever, weight loss, easy bruising, night sweats, enlarged spleen or liver, and bone pain.
How is the PDGFRß test performed?
The test uses Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH) on a bone marrow or peripheral blood sample to detect PDGFRß gene rearrangements.
What is the cost of the PDGFRß test in India?
The cost is INR 5250 at DNA Labs India, with free home sample collection available across many cities.
Is home sample collection available for this test?
Yes, DNA Labs India offers free home sample collection for the PDGFRß test in numerous cities across India.

Is the PDGFRß test covered by insurance?
Coverage depends on your insurance plan. It is not typically covered under government schemes like PMJAY or CGHS; check with your provider.
What does a positive PDGFRß test result mean?
A positive result indicates the presence of PDGFRß gene rearrangement, which is consistent with CMML and may require further treatment planning.
What are the risks of the PDGFRß test?
Risks are minimal and related to sample collection, such as infection or bleeding from bone marrow biopsy, or bruising from blood draw.
How accurate is the PDGFRß test?
The test is highly accurate for detecting PDGFRß rearrangements using FISH, but results should be interpreted alongside clinical findings.
