? What Is The Oncomine Comprehensive Myeloid/Leukemia Panel?
The Oncomine Comprehensive Myeloid Panel (DNA + RNA Fusions) is a next-generation sequencing (NGS) test designed to detect a wide range of mutations and gene fusions involved in myeloid malignancies, including AML, MDS, MPN, CMML, and acute leukemias. By analyzing both DNA mutations and RNA fusion transcripts, it provides an all-in-one genomic solution for accurate diagnosis, risk stratification, and personalized therapy.

? Why Do People In Dubai Choose This Test?

✔️ Detects over 40 myeloid-related genes and fusion transcripts
✔️ Covers both DNA mutations and RNA-based gene fusions
✔️ Supports decisions for targeted therapies & clinical trials
✔️ Ideal for newly diagnosed, relapsed, or refractory cases
✔️ Trusted by leading hematologists and cancer centers in Dubai

? Methodology Of The Test

1. Sample Collection:
   A bone marrow aspirate or peripheral blood sample is collected under clinical supervision.

2. DNA & RNA Extraction:
   Genetic material is isolated from the sample to capture both mutations and gene fusions.

3. NGS Sequencing & Fusion Detection:
   Advanced NGS technology sequences over 40 key genes and detects complex RNA fusions like RUNX1-RUNX1T1, CBFB-MYH11, PML-RARA, and many others.

4. Bioinformatics Analysis:
   Data is interpreted using clinical-grade software to classify mutations and predict therapeutic responses.

5. Result Reporting:
   A comprehensive report is delivered in 10–14 working days, including therapeutic implications and clinical recommendations.

? Cost Of The Oncomine Myeloid Panel In Dubai

The price of the test typically ranges from AED 4,500 – AED 8,500, depending on the number of genes, lab processing, and whether additional genetic counseling is included.

? Where To Get This Test In Dubai

?‍♀️ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the benefit of testing both DNA and RNA?
Testing both provides a complete genetic profile, capturing point mutations, insertions/deletions, and fusion genes, which are often missed in single-type tests.

Q2: Is this test suitable for children with leukemia?
Yes, the test is applicable to both pediatric and adult patients, based on clinical recommendation.

Q3: Can this test identify resistance mutations?
Absolutely. It can detect mutations that may lead to treatment resistance, helping doctors adjust medications accordingly.

Q4: How long does it take to get results?
Results are typically ready in 10 to 14 business days.

Q5: Is fasting required before the test?
No fasting is needed. Sample collection is a simple blood or marrow draw.
