Assay Profile

This profile inlcudes 16 data elements to represent the molecular assay specifications.

Data Element Data Type Description Terminology Required

date_tumor_prof_rept Date The date/time this report was issued N/A Required
tumor_test_type CodeableConcept The method used to perform the genetic test. Examples include Fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH), polymerase chain reaction-based assays (PCR), and next-generation sequencing (NGS). Code Set Required
tumor_prof_provider CodeableConcept The name of the organization producing the report Code Set Required
assay CodeableConcept The range(s) of the DNA sequence examined Code Set Required
other_assay String Additional description if “Other” is selected in the “Test Assay” question N/A Required
surg_path_id_assay String The ID number from the surgical pathology report N/A Required
tumor_prof_case_id String The tumor profiling case ID N/A Required
coverage String Sequencing depth N/A Required
tmb Integer The total number of mutations (changes) found in the DNA of cancer cells N/A Required
loh String The genomic loss of heterozygosity N/A Required
loh_assay String The assay loss of heterozygosity N/A Required
msi_status CodeableConcept Microsatellite status Code Set Required
msi_date Date MSI date N/A Required

cur_by_assay String The name of the curator who modified the instrument N/A Required if known

Notes

1. This profile is repeatable and more than one records can be expected per patient
2. The “Code Set” is a custom set of codes defined by the JHU Team
