PGmax™ - Inborn Errors of Immunity/Primary Immunodeficiency (PID) Panel
Use
This test is designed for individuals with a clinical or suspected diagnosis of an inborn error of immunity or primary immunodeficiency. It is especially relevant for those having a family history of unknown etiology immunodeficiency, as well as for infants exhibiting abnormal T cells identified via a positive newborn screen result or showing signs of recurrent, severe infections. The panel includes 651 genes associated with these conditions.
Special Instructions
Users have an option for Exome-wide CNV analysis which is included in the test. STAT testing available, with a specified turnaround time.
Limitations
The test is aimed at detecting variations in a defined list of 651 genes associated with primary immunodeficiency. However, there may be genetic alterations outside of this panel or within non-coding regions that could contribute to the disease phenotype. Interpretation of sequence and CNV data requires comprehensive clinical information and may not identify all potential genetic causes of immunodeficiency.
