Gynecologic Oncology (GYNPTH) Pathways

These four pathways are composed of paired tumor-germline testing for patients with gynecological cancers, following the UWMC Gynecological Oncology Pathways. The pathways include one or more tests from the following list, as determined by the agreed-upon diagnostic pathway: BROCA Paired Tumor Panel [BROCOP], targeted KRAS Mutations (DNA) [KRAS], BRAF Mutations [BRAF], MLH1 Promoter Hypermethylation [MLH1MT], Microsatellite Instability [MSI], UW OncoPlex Single Gene [OPG], UW OncoPlex Cancer Gene Panel [OPX], PDL1 IHC (send out).

These diagnostic pathways are defined by tumor type. See links below for testing specifics for each pathway:

Specimen Requirements

Peripheral blood for Tumor Test Comparator Sample [OPCOMP] should be submitted.

Tumor tissue will be acquired by the laboratory.

The test order Gynecological Oncology Pathway [GYNPTH] will be initiated per the tumor type Gynecological Oncology Pathway (see above for diagnostic pathway details).

Requisitions and Contact Information
