PATIENT FACT SHEET TM
PROSTATE ADENOCARCINOMA Definition: The most common form of cancer in men. It is a growth that originates in the peripheral cells of the prostate and is malignant, meaning that it can spread to other organs of the body. The prostate is a gland that surrounds the male urethra and secretes a fluid during ejaculation. ______POSSIBLE RISK FACTORS_________________________________________________ -Age -Prostate cancer is very rarely found in men under 40 years old. -Men over 65 are 40 times more likely to have prostate cancer than are men under 65. -Prostate cancer is the most common cause of death from cancer in men over 75. - Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) levels PSA of up to 4.0 is considered normal. PSA of 4.1 to 10.0 is associated with a 15%-20% risk of prostate adenocarcinoma. PSA of over 10.0 is associated with a 50% risk of prostate adenocarcinoma. -Race -Prostate cancer is most common in black men over age 60. -Prostate cancer is least common in men of Asian (Oriental) decent. -Heredity Patients with a family history of prostate cancer are more likely to develop it than are patients without a family history. ______STAGES OF PROSTATE CANCER_____________________________________________ Stage A. The carcinoma is confined to the prostate, and is not palpable (detectable) by Digital Rectal Examination (DRE). Patients usually do not complain about symptoms, and it can only be detected by elevated PSA levels or a biopsy. Stage B. The cancer is confined to the prostate, but is palpable by DRE. There are usually no symptoms. Stage C. In this stage, the carcinoma has spread to regions outside the prostate. Patients usually experience some pain. Stage D. The carcinoma has spread into the spinal column, causing back pain in addition to the pains found in stage C. ______DIAGNOSIC TESTS_______________________________________________________ -Digital Rectal Examination (DRE) Your doctor inserts a gloved, lubricated finger into the rectum and feels for any abnormalities in the prostate. -Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) Test PSA is a chemical that is produced only by the prostate. A high PSA level in your blood suggests that your prostate is enlarged. ______METHOD OF DIAGNOSIS___________________________________________________ Clinicians can occasionally make the diagnosis by careful observation. However, the removal of a small sample from the affected area for analysis at a reputable pathology laboratory was required for absolute confirmation of the diagnosis, as other conditions can mimic it clinically. Your sample was studied by a specialized pathologist at Acupath Laboratories, Inc. before being conclusively diagnosed as Prostate Cancer. ______METHODS OF TREATMENT__________________________________________________ Prostate adenocarcinoma usually requires surgery. However, other non-surgical methods are appropriate in some cases. Your doctor will determine which treatment is best suited for your specific case. ______COMMENTS______________________________________________________________
BENIGN PROSTATIC HYPERPLASIA (BPH) Definition: A non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate that often begins around age 45 and can continue indefinitely. The prostate is a gland that surrounds the male urethra and secretes a fluid during ejaculation. As the prostate grows, it begins to pinch the urethra, causing the symptoms associated with BPH. There are many causes of an enlarged prostate, and it is important that BPH be distinguished from prostate cancer. _____FACTS________________________________________________ -BHP may be the result of the hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT), which triggers the enlargement of the prostate. -BHP affects 50% of men age 60 or older, and 90% of men age 85 or older. -Most cases of an enlarged prostate are BPH, not cancer. _____SYMPTOMS_____________________________________________ -Frequent urination -Weak or interrupted urinary stream -Feeling that bladder will not empty completely -Feeling of delay or hesitation when you begin to urinate -Feeling that you cannot postpone urination -Pain in lower back, pelvis, and/or upper thigh -Burning pain during urination sometimes indicates that an infection is present _____DIAGNOSIC TESTS________________________________________ -Digital Rectal Examination (DRE) Your doctor inserts a gloved, lubricated finger into your rectum and feels for an enlargement of the prostate. _____METHOD OF DIAGNOSIS_____________________________________ Clinicians can occasionally make the diagnosis by careful observation. However, the removal of small samples from the affected area for analysis at a reputable pathology laboratory is required for absolute confirmation of the diagnosis, as other more serious conditions can mimic it clinically. Your sample is studied by a specialized pathologist at Acupath Laboratories, Inc. before being conclusively diagnosed as a Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia. _____METHODS OF TREATMENT____________________________________ There are various surgical and non-surgical methods of treating BPH, including several technologically advanced methods. Each method is applicable for certain specific cases, and your doctor will determine which method is best suited for you. _____COMMENTS_____________________________________________

Dear Dr. U. Doe:
Re: Jack S. Jones456 Sample Blvd. New York, NY 10011
Dr. Jane U. Doe
I had the pleasure of treating your patient Jack S Jones, a 58 year old male, on September 18, 20XX. The specimens were sent for pathologic interpretation to Acupath Laboratories, Inc. The histopathologic interpretation of the specimen from the (A) Right Base revealed benign prostatic hyperplasia. The histopathologic interpretation of the specimen from the (B) Right Mid revealed benign prostatic hyperplasia with atrophic features.

FISH ANALYSIS DATA
Assay # 1 Probe Region: Chromosomes 3, 7, 17 and 9p21 25 No. of Cells Scored: Process and limitations of use: This test was developed and its performance characteristics determined by Acupath Laboratories. It has not been cleared or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
TEST RESULT: Abnormal- Positive Aneuploidy of chromosomes 3, 7, 17 and/or 9p21 locus. A positive control had all 25 cells with an abnormal hybridization pattern.
INTERPRETATION: The Vysis UroVysion Bladder Cancer FISH assay was performed on the analyzable cells from the patient’s voided urine. A minimum of twenty-five morphologically abnormal cells were analyzed. Of these cells, 25 of 25 (100%) were determined to have an abnormal profile. A review of the entire specimen slide revealed ten cells which were aneuploid for chromosomes 3, 7, 17 and/or the 9p21 locus. Aneuploidy of these chromosomes is associated with urothelial carcinoma progression. In addition, sixty other cells were observed which were tetraploidy/ near tetraploidy for chromosomes 3,7,17, and/or the 9p21 locus. This is greater than the 10 cells needed to consider the specimen abnormal by tertaploidy/ near tetraploidy (Bubendorf et al., Am J Clin Pathol 2001; 116:79-86). These results should be correlated with other clinical and laboratory tests.

ABNORMAL: LOSS OF HMGN1 AND DSCAM, RESULTING IN ERG REARRANGEMENTS IN 33% OF THE CELLS:
HETEROZYGOUS LOSS OF THE PTEN, FAS AND WAPAL LOCI IN 28% OF THE CELLS ANALYZED.
FINAL DIAGNOSIS:
Assay # FISH ANALYSIS DATA
Probe Region Chromosome or Locus Normal Reference Range
Interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was completed on the submitted formalin fixed paraffin embedded lower prostate biopsy (part I), using a panel of four locus specific identifier probes for the following loci: ERG (centromeric), HMGN1, DSCAM, and TMPRSS2 (telomeric), all located in the long arm of chromosome 21 (21q22.2). One hundred non overlapping cells were identified, of which 33/100 (33%) showed a heterozygous loss of both the HMGN1 and DSCAM, and TMPRSS loci – resulting in the ERG locus rearranging with an unknown fusion partner. This is greater than the 10% of the tissue needed with an ERG rearrangement to consider the specimen abnormal. These are ABNORMAL results. Patients with ERG rearrangements and with loss of PTEN are associated with a poor prognosis (Reid et al. British Journal of Cancer (2010) 102, 678-684). In addition, FISH was also completed using a panel of three locus specific identifier probes and one chromosome enumeration probe for the following loci: CEP10 (10p11.1-q11.1), telomeric FAS (10q23.31), PTEN (10q23.31), and centromeric WAPAL (10q23.31). A minimum of one hundred non overlapping cells were identified. Of these, 28/100 cells showed a heterozygous loss of the PTEN locus as well as a heterozygous loss of the WAPAL and FAS loci - showing the deletion is more likely the whole arm. This is greater than the 20% of the tissue needing to have the heterozygous loss of the PTEN locus to consider the specimen abnormal. The heterozygous PTEN deletion is associated with a much earlier onset of biochemical recurrence (Yoshimoto M, et al. Br J Cancer (2007) p678-685).

1. The PTEN FISH assay is not an FDA-approved FISH test. It is designed to aid in the detection of chromosomal abnormalities related to patients with Adenocarcinoma of the prostate. This FISH assay is intended for use as an adjunct to traditional diagnostic procedures and should not be used as the sole basis for the diagnosis of new cancers or for the surveillance of tumor recurrence. 2. A positive result by the PTEN FISH assay requires that a total of 100 non overlapping interphase cells be evaluated and that these cells show at least two copies of the CEP10 locus, homozygous loss of PTEN in >30% of the tissue, or heterozygous loss of PTEN in >20% of the tissue. Loss of FAS or WAPAL are included to determine the size of the deletion, and to prevent truncation artifact reporting. 3. This PTEN FISH assay was developed and its performance characteristics determined by the Acupath Cytogenetics Laboratory. Although it has not been cleared or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the FDA has determined that such clearance or approval is not necessary. Pursuant to the requirements of CLIA ’88, however, this laboratory has established and verified the test’s accuracy and precision, and is therefore used for clinical purposes. 4. The ERG:TMPRSS2 FISH assay is not an FDA-approved FISH test. It is designed to aid in the detection of chromosomal abnormalities related to patients with Adenocarcinoma of the prostate. This FISH assay is intended for use as an adjunct to traditional diagnostic procedures and should not be used as the sole basis for the diagnosis of new cancers or for the surveillance of tumor recurrence. 5. A positive result by ERG:TMPRSS2 FISH assay requires that a total of 100 non overlapping interphase cells be evaluated and that these cells show at least two copies of at least three of the four loci tested to prevent truncation artifact reporting. Specific cut-off values have been established at Acupath Laboratories, Inc. 6. The ERG:TMPRSS2 FISH assay was developed and its performance characteristics determined by the Acupath Cytogenetics Laboratory. Although it has not been cleared or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the FDA has determined that such clearance or approval is not necessary. Pursuant to the requirements of CLIA ’88, however, this laboratory has established and verified the test’s accuracy and precision, and is therefore used for clinical purposes.

INTERPRETATION: Positive for one or more of the following strains of HPV: 6/11/16/18/31/33/35/45/51/52. The HPV Wide Spectrum is used to detect HPV DNA by In Situ Hybridization (ISH) in biopsies; it does not discriminate between the HPV subtype. The HPV Wide Spectrum detects subtypes 6, 11, 16, 18, 30, 31, 33, 35, 45, 51, and 52. The absence of hybridization with HPV subtypes 6, 11, 16, 18, 31, and 33 may indicate other subtypes that were not analyzed in this study. Positive for Low-Risk HPV strains 6/11. Negative for High-Risk HPV strains 16/18. Negative for High-Risk HPV strains 31/33.
This analysis is an adjunct to the evaluation of the referring physician and does not represent a final diagnosis.

PATIENT FACT SHEET TM
CONDYLOMA ACUMINATA Definition: Commonly known as genital warts, Condyloma Acuminata is a sexually transmitted disease caused by the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV). It is characterized by wart-like growths on the penis, vagina, vulva, and/or rectum. In rarer cases HPV may cause warts on the throat, tongue, and mouth. _____FACTS/RISK FACTORS________________________________________ Over 50 different types of HPV have been identified. Some lead to rough raised warts, while others to soft flat ones. Several types have been associated with abnormal pap smears in women, which may indicate an increased risk for cervical cancer. Unsafe sexual practices such as multiple/unknown sexual partners and lack of condom use increase the risk of contracting HPV. _____SYMPTOMS__________________________________________________ Although many patients display no symptoms at all, infection by HPV may cause: - warts/lesions in the genital and/or anal areas - cauliflower-like growths around the genitals and/or anus - dampness - itching _____METHOD OF DIAGNOSIS_______________________________________ Many clinicians can diagnose Condyloma by careful observation. However, the removal of a small sample from the affected area for analysis at a reputable pathology laboratory is required for absolute confirmation of the diagnosis, as other conditions can mimic it clinically. Your sample is studied by a specialized pathologist at Acupath Laboratories, Inc. before being conclusively diagnosed as Condyloma Acuminata. _____METHODS OF TREATMENT______________________________________ Methods of treatment include both topical medications and minor surgical procedures. Your doctor will decide which type of therapy is best suited for you. _____COMMENTS__________________________________________________
