Pricing Comments

Our favored testing approach is exome based NextGen sequencing with CNV analysis. This will allow cost effective reflexing to PGxome or other exome based tests. However, if full gene Sanger sequencing is desired for STAT turnaround time, insurance, or other reasons, please see link below for Test Code, pricing, and turnaround time information. If the Sanger option is selected, CNV detection may be ordered through Test #600.

An additional 25% charge will be applied to STAT orders. STAT orders are prioritized throughout the testing process.

The Sanger Sequencing method for this test is NY State approved.

Turnaround Time

3 weeks on average for standard orders or 2 weeks on average for STAT orders.

Please note: Once the testing process begins, an Estimated Report Date (ERD) range will be displayed in the portal. This is the most accurate prediction of when your report will be complete and may differ from the average TAT published on our website. About 85% of our tests will be reported within or before the ERD range. We will notify you of significant delays or holds which will impact the ERD. Learn more about turnaround times here.

Clinical Features and Genetics

Clinical Features

Congenital Dyserythropoietic Anemia (CDA) is a disorder that affects erythropoiesis leading to anemia. There are four types of CDA caused by mutations in different genes. Overlapping symptoms include jaundice and splenomegaly. Chronic anemia can cause secondary hemochromatosis and lead to tissue damage and organ failure in severe cases. Genetics is helpful in differential diagnosis of CDA types and from other broader syndromes where CDA also occurs including Majeed Syndrome, Mevalonate Kinase Deficiency, and exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (Iolascon et al. 2012; Tamary and Dgany 2009). Type I CDA is the second most prevalent form of disease and is characterized by moderate to severe anemia through mutations in either the CDAN1 or CDIN1/C15ORF41 genes. Patients with Type I CDA via CDIN1 gene mutations had severe anemia requiring blood transfusions during early childhood. Other clinical features included megaloblastic erythrocytosis with bi and multi-nuclear erythroblasts (Babbs et al. 2013; Iolascon et al. 2012).

Genetics

Type I CDA is primarily inherited in an autosomal recessive manner through mutations in the CDAN1 gene. Recently, Babbs et al. (2013) identified recessive causative mutations in a second gene, CDIN1. Two missense mutations have been reported with the c.533T>A (p.Leu178Gln) and the c.281A>G (p.Try94Cys) variants being reported in one Middle-Eastern family and two East Asian families respectively (Babbs et al. 2013). While the exact function of the CDIN1 protein is unknown, it is a member of the Holliday junction resolvase family and thought to be involved in DNA repair (Babbs et al. 2013).

Clinical Sensitivity - Sequencing with CNV PGxome

Analytical sensitivity for the CDIN1 gene should be high because all mutations reported to date are detectable by this method. Clinical sensitivity for CDIN1 is unknown due to the small number of patients reported to date.

Testing Strategy

This test provides full coverage of all coding exons of the CDIN1 gene plus 10 bases of flanking noncoding DNA in all available transcripts along with other non-coding regions in which pathogenic variants have been identified at PreventionGenetics or reported elsewhere. We define full coverage as >20X NGS reads or Sanger sequencing. PGnome panels typically provide slightly increased coverage over the PGxome equivalent. PGnome sequencing panels have the added benefit of additional analysis and reporting of deep intronic regions (where applicable).

Dependent on the sequencing backbone selected for this testing, discounted reflex testing to any other similar backbone-based test is available (i.e., PGxome panel to whole PGxome; PGnome panel to whole PGnome).

Indications for Test

Candidates have clinical features consistent with CDA including jaundice, anemia, splenomegaly, gallstones, and secondary hemochromatosis. Patients with Type I CDA have bone marrow morphology analysis indicating abnormal chromatin bridging by light microscopy and spongy heterochromatin with invagination of the cytoplasm into the nucleus by electron microscopy (Iolascon et al. 2012). This test may also be considered for the reproductive partners of individuals who carry pathogenic variants in CDIN1.

myPrevent - Online Ordering

  • The test can be added to your online orders in the Summary and Pricing section.
  • Once the test has been added log in to myPrevent to fill out an online requisition form.
  • PGnome sequencing panels can be ordered via the myPrevent portal only at this time.

Requisition Form

  • A completed requisition form must accompany all specimens.
  • Billing information along with specimen and shipping instructions are within the requisition form.
  • All testing must be ordered by a qualified healthcare provider.

For Requisition Forms, visit our Forms page

If ordering a Duo or Trio test, the proband and all comparator samples are required to initiate testing. If we do not receive all required samples for the test ordered within 21 days, we will convert the order to the most effective testing strategy with the samples available. Prior authorization and/or billing in place may be impacted by a change in test code.
