Among Afirma Xpression Atlas (XA) intended use cohort (n = 18 286) (Afirma GSC suspicious Bethesda III/IV nodules [n = 16 594] and Bethesda V/VI nodules [n = 1692]), 45.6% of samples (7190 + 1154) had precisely 1 alteration (variant or fusion) identified. More than 1 alteration was seen in 1.4% of the target population (219 + 5 + 30 + 1 + 6). Six samples had 2 fusions identified.
