Diagnostic and clinical utility of comprehensive multigene panel testing for patients with neuropathy
Background and Aims
Prior to next-generation sequencing (NGS), the evaluation of a patient with neuropathy typically consisted of screening for acquired causes, followed by clinical genetic testing of PMP22, MFN2, GJB1, and MPZ in patients with a positive family history and symptom onset prior to age 50. In this study, we examined the clinical utility of NGS in a large cohort of patients analyzed in a commercial laboratory.
Methods
A cohort of 6849 adult patients underwent clinician-ordered peripheral neuropathy multigene panel testing ranging from 66 to 111 genes that included NGS and intragenic deletion/duplication analysis.
Results
A molecular diagnosis was identified for 8.4% of the cohort (n = 573/6849). Variants in PMP22, MFN2, GJB1, MPZ, and TTR accounted for 73.8% of molecular diagnoses. Results had potential clinical actionability for 398 (69.5%) patients. Our results suggest that 225/573 (39.3%) of molecular diagnoses and 113/398 (28.4%) of clinical interventions would have been missed if the testing approach had been restricted to older guidelines.
Interpretation
Our results highlight the need for expanded genetic testing guidelines that account for the increased number of genes associated with hereditary neuropathy, address the overlap of acquired and hereditary neuropathy, and provide broader access to genetic diagnosis for patients.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the Peripheral Nervous System is the official journal of the Peripheral Nerve Society. Founded in 1996, it is the scientific journal of choice for clinicians, clinical scientists and basic neuroscientists interested in all aspects of biology and clinical research of peripheral nervous system disorders.
The Journal of the Peripheral Nervous System is a peer-reviewed journal that publishes high quality articles on cell and molecular biology, genomics, neuropathic pain, clinical research, trials, and unique case reports on inherited and acquired peripheral neuropathies.
Original articles are organized according to the topic in one of four specific areas: Mechanisms of Disease, Genetics, Clinical Research, and Clinical Trials.
The journal also publishes regular review papers on hot topics and Special Issues on basic, clinical, or assembled research in the field of peripheral nervous system disorders. Authors interested in contributing a review-type article or a Special Issue should contact the Editorial Office to discuss the scope of the proposed article with the Editor-in-Chief.
