Abstract
PURPOSE We designed a comprehensive multiple myeloma targeted sequencing panel to identify common genomic abnormalities in a single assay and validated it against known standards. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN The panel comprised 228 genes/exons for mutations, 6 regions for translocations, and 56 regions for copy number abnormalities (CNA). Toward panel validation, targeted sequencing was conducted on 233 patient samples and further validated using clinical FISH (translocations), multiplex ligation probe analysis (MLPA; CNAs), whole-genome sequencing (WGS; CNAs, mutations, translocations), or droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) of known standards (mutations). RESULTS Canonical immunoglobulin heavy chain translocations were detected in 43.2% of patients by sequencing, and aligned with FISH except for 1 patient. CNAs determined by sequencing and MLPA for 22 regions were comparable in 103 samples and concordance between platforms was R2 = 0.969. Variant allele frequency (VAF) for 74 mutations were compared between sequencing and ddPCR with concordance of R2 = 0.9849. CONCLUSIONS In summary, we have developed a targeted sequencing panel that is as robust or superior to FISH and WGS. This molecular panel is cost-effective, comprehensive, clinically actionable, and can be routinely deployed to assist risk stratification at diagnosis or posttreatment to guide sequencing of therapies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Here we present three cases of chromosomal abnormalities with favorable outcomes. CASE REPORT In Case 1, conventional karyotyping revealed a karyotype of 46, XY,t(7; 14) (q35; q13)[4]/46,XY[26]. Array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analysis revealed no genomic imbalance. In Case 2, conventional karyotyping revealed a norma karyotype but aCGH analysis revealed a 3.2M chromosomal duplication (13q12.11q12.12(22, 073, 046_25, 230, 759)x3). In Case 3, aCGH analysis revealed a 5.5M chromosomal deletion (9q21.13q21.32 (78, 645, 382_84, 115, 555) x1). In all three cases, ultrasound examination showed no dysmorphisms and intrauterine growth restrictions (IUGRs) in the fetus. All three pregnancies resulted in phenotypically normal babies. CONCLUSION Chromosomal abnormalities may be associated with favorable outcomes. Combining conventional karyotyping, aCGH analysis and ultrasound results can provide a more accurate risk assessment for pregnant women with advanced age.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This integrative review describes the genomic variants that have been found to be associated with poor prognosis in patients diagnosed with multiple myeloma (MM). Second, it identifies MM genetic and genomic changes using next-generation sequencing, specifically whole-genome sequencing or exome sequencing. DATA SOURCE A search for peer-reviewed articles through PubMed, EBSCOhost, and DePaul WorldCat Libraries Worldwide yielded 33 articles that were included in the final analysis. CONCLUSION The most commonly reported genetic changes were KRAS, NRAS, TP53, FAM46C, BRAF, DIS3, ATM, and CCND1. These genetic changes play a role in the pathogenesis of MM, prognostication, and therapeutic targets for novel therapies. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE MM genetics and genomics are expanding rapidly; oncology nurse clinicians must have basic competencies in genetics and genomics to help patients understand the complexities of genetic and genomic alterations and be able to refer patients to appropriate genomic professionals if needed.
