Inv16 p13q22 t1616p13q22 GENE REARRANGEMENT QUANTITATIVE MRD MONITOR Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the Inv16 p13q22 t1616p13q22 GENE REARRANGEMENT QUANTITATIVE MRD MONITOR Test. This diagnostic test is designed to monitor minimal residual disease (MRD) in patients with genetic rearrangements involving the Inv16 (p13q22) or t(1616)(p13q22) genes.
Test Details
The Inv16 (p13q22) / t(1616)(p13q22) gene rearrangement quantitative MRD monitor test is a diagnostic test used to monitor minimal residual disease (MRD) in patients with certain genetic rearrangements involving the Inv16 (p13q22) or t(1616)(p13q22) genes. MRD refers to the small number of cancer cells that may remain in a patient’s body after treatment, even when there is no evidence of disease.
Monitoring MRD is important in assessing the effectiveness of treatment and predicting the likelihood of relapse. This specific test is designed to detect and quantify the presence of the Inv16 (p13q22) or t(1616)(p13q22) gene rearrangements in a patient’s bone marrow or blood sample. These gene rearrangements are associated with certain types of leukemia, such as acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
The test utilizes a quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) technique to amplify and quantify the specific gene rearrangements. By measuring the levels of the rearranged genes, the test can provide information about the extent of MRD in a patient’s body. The results of the test can help healthcare providers determine the appropriate treatment plan for the patient. If the MRD levels remain high, additional treatments or interventions may be necessary to prevent relapse. Conversely, if the MRD levels are low or undetectable, it indicates a good response to treatment and a lower risk of relapse.
It is important to note that this test is specific to the Inv16 (p13q22) or t(1616)(p13q22) gene rearrangements and may not be applicable to other types of genetic rearrangements or cancers. Additionally, the test should be interpreted by a qualified healthcare professional who is familiar with the specific genetic abnormalities and their implications in the context of the patient’s overall condition.
