This session is designed to improve understanding and application of recent updates to synoptic pathology reporting protocols such as the latest Reporting Template for Reporting Results of Biomarker Testing of Specimens from Patients with Carcinoma of the Breast. These changes reflect evolving clinical guidelines that directly influence diagnostic accuracy and treatment selection in breast cancer care.
Webinar presenters Thaer Khoury, MD, FCAP, Chair, Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center, and Colin Murphy, CEO of mTuitive.
Moderated by: Bob McGonnagle, Publisher, CAP TODAY

In this webinar, we will examine how immune recognition after allogeneic HCT can influence leukemia relapse and disease progression. The session will highlight the clinical relevance of HLA loss of heterozygosity (LOH), approaches used for its detection, and how LOH findings may support transplant strategies, including considerations for donor selection in subsequent transplantation.
Webinar presenter Alberto Cardoso Martins Lima, PhD, Clinical consulting scientist in histocompatibility,
specializing in allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) at IGEN/AFIP São Paulo and CHC/UFPR in Curitiba, Brazil

July 2022—Sarstedt has launched a web shop for direct online ordering of its labware consumables, specimen collection devices, and small instruments. The shop is available to customers in the United States and can be accessed via the company website at www.sarstedt.com or directly at www.shop.sarstedt.us.
July 2022—PerkinElmer has launched its research use only BioQule NGS system, an automated benchtop solution for next-generation sequencing library preparation of up to eight samples. The system requires as little as 10 ng of starting material per run to create libraries. By incorporating automated thermocycling, integrated quality control through optical quantification, and robust liquid-handling technology in a single device, the company says the system enables researchers to produce high-quality NGS libraries that yield reliable, reproducible results.
July 2022—Creative Diagnostics has released a range of Nipah virus recombinant antigens and monoclonal antibody pairs. The monoclonal antibodies can be used as a pair in sandwich ELISA with the recombinant protein or in capture IgM assays. The products are specific to Nipah virus, with no cross-reaction with dengue, Zika, and chikungunya envelope proteins.
July 2022—Scopio Labs received FDA 510(k) clearance for its X100HT hematology digital cell morphology platform with peripheral blood smear review.
July 2022—BD announced the U.S. launch of its fully automated, high-throughput infectious disease molecular diagnostics platform, the BD COR MX. The 510(k)-cleared instrument is an analytic option for the modular and scalable BD COR system.
July 2022—Bio-Rad Laboratories introduced three StarBright dyes designed for use with a 355 nanometer UV laser in flow cytometry applications. StarBright UltraViolet 510, 665, and 795 dyes offer exceptional brightness, the company says, with narrow excitation and emission profiles for precise resolution.
July 2022—Streck, in partnership with Ceres Nanosciences, announced the availability of its viral extraction kit for clinical samples containing SARS-CoV-2 and influenza A.
July 2022—Illumina announced that a companion diagnostic indication has been added to its CE-marked in vitro diagnostic TruSight Oncology Comprehensive (EU) test. The CDx pan-cancer indication will allow identification of cancer patients with solid tumors who are positive for neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase gene fusions including NTRK1, NTRK2, or NTRK3 and who may benefit from targeted therapy with Bayer’s Vitrakvi (larotrectinib), a genomically matched treatment.
July 2022—GenScript USA has reached an agreement with Euroimmun US, a PerkinElmer company, for the distribution of the GenScript cPass SARS-CoV-2 Neutralization Antibody Detection Kit in the United States and Canada.
July 2022—The CAP has been looking to identify areas where pathologists can help overcome institutional bias in medicine. As you may have seen, the CAP recently issued a statement supporting a new position from the American Medical Association that calls for a change to the FDA’s policy about blood donations from men who have sex with men. The current rule, established in early 2020 in response to a drastic blood shortage associated with pandemic lockdowns, prohibits blood donations from gay or bisexual men who have engaged in sexual activity in the prior three months. Previously, only gay or bisexual men who abstained from sex for a full year were eligible to donate blood. Many of you remember as I do the societal rejection of HIV-positive patients that occurred in the late ’80s. I was in medical school at this time, working at the county hospital in Kansas City, Mo. A lack of access to health care elsewhere was only one form of rejection to which our HIV-positive patients were subjected.
