IDH1-R132H IHC

Wednesday 25 February 2015

IHC for IDH1-R132H is relatively sensitive and specific, but there is a discordance rate that is not trivial, with NGS mutation profiling. In addition, a significant proportion of patients harbor IDH1 non-R132H mutations not detectable by IHC, potentially limiting utility of IHC screening for IDH1 mutations.
