Detecting CALR mutations should always be this easy

Empower oncologist-hematologists with the confidence they need

CALR gene mutations in MPNs

A significant number of patients with o myelaproliferotive neoplasm (MPN) hove a mutation in the CALR gene. A CALR mutation is found in 20%-25% o f essential thrombocythem ia (ET) and primary myelofibrosis (PMF) cases.*

The presence o f CALR mutations is a major diagnostic criterion for MPNs in WHO 2016 guidelines.**

Detecting relevant biomarkers like CALR enables oncologist-hematologists and researchers to help advance MPN research.

Reliably detect CALR mutations 

Our CALR solutions let you analyze CALR mutations with the same workflow you use for JAK2 V617F testing.

With the CALR mutation testing kits, you can be sure of :

  • Reliable qualitative detection of CALR exon 9 mutations (c.1091_1162 region) and identification of Types 1 & 2 in the same real-time PCR run
  • Multiple results with just one instrument and one real-time PCR step
  • An Integrated, ready-to-use workflow that saves time and lowers costs.
  • Increased lab efficiency

Confident CALR detection 

Our CE-IVD certified ipsogen CALR RGQ PCR Kit improves MPN diagnosis with easy and sensitive CALR mutation detection

The ipsogen CALR RGQ PCR Kit lets you:

  • Follow diagnostic algorithm testing and WHO 2016 guidelines by reliably testing clinically relevant MPN biomarkers
  • Analyze JAK2 V617F, followed by CALR, from the same sample in the same workflow 
  • Optimize sample use, save time and increase lab efficiency
  • Access direct results interpretation and reporting
