Abstract: detection of other fusion oncogenes.In particular, the readout by a lateral flow strip is a simple and fast POC test with the potential to foster the rapid and reliable detection of disease-defining fusiononcogenes outside of tertiary cancer centers or high-income countries.Still, the utility and performance need to be confirmed in appropriately designed prospective studies within the targeted test environment.Moreover, the accessibility to the test should be ensured by adequate storage and shipment conditions as well as acceptable costs for the economically less privileged countries.Nonetheless, SHERLOCK represents a promising technological advance for the fast and reliable diagnosis of patients suffering from fusion-driven leukemias, especially in lower-resource environments.Conflict-of-interest disclosure: N.B. declares
