Oncomine™ Myeloid Assay GX
Innovative technology now enables simultaneous investigation of various myeloid malignancies in one streamlined approach. The Oncomine™ Myeloid Assay GX uses a highly automated workflow for fast, accurate, and cost-effective testing.
What is it?
The Oncomine™ Myeloid Assay GX is a Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) solution that detects:
- All clinically relevant myeloid genetic biomarkers
- Mutations and fusions
- All in one comprehensive assay
Key Advantages
- Comprehensive Testing
Detects mutations in 53 genes (DNA) and 30 fusions (RNA) - High Accuracy
Outperforms FISH by detecting a broader range of gene rearrangements with greater sensitivity - Fast Turnaround
Genexus’ automated workflow delivers results quickly without compromising quality - Cost-Effective
One assay covers all clinically actionable genes and fusions
Sample Requirements
- 1 EDTA tube with ≥ 2ml bone marrow aspirate or peripheral blood
- Must reach the lab within 72 hours for RNA extraction
Limitations
- Does not detect copy number variations (e.g., trisomies/monosomies) or large structural deletions
How to Request
- Use mnemonic: OMAGEN
- For DNA/RNA extraction on hold: OMAHOLD only
Why Choose OMAGEN?
- Faster results
- Informative
- Highly accurate
- Cost-effective
