  • MalfunctionMay 13, 2026False Negative Result

    IT HAS BEEN DISCOVERED THAT THE ONCOMINE DX EXPRESS TEST (ODXET) MAY NOT DETECT THE FGFR3 C.746C>G P.S249C (COSM715) VARIANT WHEN PRESENT IN A SAMPLE AT VERY LOW ALLELIC FREQUENCIES (AFS) DUE TO A SECONDARY STRUCTURE FORMATION THAT INHIBITS AMPLIFICATION OF THE MUTANT ALLELE, WHICH MAY RESULT IN FALSE-NEGATIVE RESULTS FOR THIS SPECIFIC FGFR3 VARIANT DUE TO AF MEASUREMENT FALLING BELOW THE VARIANT CALLING THRESHOLD. PREDICTIVE MODELING INDICATES THIS IS DRIVEN BY HIGH GUANINE AND CYTOSINE (GC) CONTENT AROUND THE MUTATION SITE AND THE SHORTER AMPLICONS USED IN THE ODXET PANEL, WITH THE SPECIFIC C-TO-G CHANGE OCCURRING WITHIN A GC-RICH REGION THAT PROMOTES SUCH STRUCTURES. THIS EFFECT IS NOT OBSERVED IN WILDTYPE SAMPLES. THERMO FISHER HAS NOT BEEN MADE AWARE OF ANY DEATH, SERIOUS INJURY OR PERMANENT BODILY IMPAIRMENT OCCURRED FROM THE USE OF THE PRODUCT.
