INTERPRETIVE...

INTERPRETIVE INFORMATION
This assay is designed to detect the point mutation c.1849G>T (V617F) of the JAK2 gene. JAK2 V617F mutations are present in patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms

Methodology: DNA from whole blood or bone marrow specimens is amplified in an allele-specific droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) multiplex reaction targeting the JAK2 c.1849G>T single nucleotide mutation encoding the V617F mutation. The limit of detection for this assay is 0.5 percent mutated alleles

Limitations: Variants in genes other than JAK2 are not detected. JAK2 variants other than V617F (c.1849G>T) are not reported. Samples with JAK2
V617F mutations below the limit of detection are not reported

Results of this test must always be interpreted in the context of morphologic and other relevant data and should not be used alone for a diagnosis of malignancy

This test was developed and its performance characteristics determined by ARUP Laboratories
It has not been cleared or approved by the U.S
Food and Drug Administration. This test was performed in a CLIA-certified laboratory and is intended for clinical purposes
