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

Thermo Fisher, Mainz Biomed to develop a next-gen CRC screening test

January 2025—Mainz Biomed, a Germany-based molecular genetics diagnostic company specializing in cancer diagnostics, announced a collaborative agreement with Thermo Fisher Scientific, through its subsidiary Life Technologies Corp. The companies will jointly develop and potentially commercialize Mainz Biomed’s next-generation colorectal cancer screening product. The test targets the early detection of colorectal cancer and focuses on precancerous lesions, particularly advanced adenomas.

Study finds Aspyre Lung is a rapid, low-input solution for NSCLC testing

January 2025—Biofidelity announced the publication of data that highlight how Aspyre technology addresses the need for rapid, accessible molecular diagnostics informing actionable genomic variants in cancer (Herlihy SE, et al. Transl Lung Cancer Res. 2024;13[11]:3083–3095). The study demonstrates that Aspyre Lung reagents can be easily set up and run at external laboratories within a few days, producing reliable results even from challenging sample types.

UllCore BSI test gets breakthrough device designation

January 2025—Deepull announced it has received breakthrough device designation from the FDA for its UllCore bloodstream infection test. The test detects 95 percent of pathogens associated with bloodstream infections that may lead to sepsis, as well as select genetic determinants of antimicrobial resistance, and has a turnaround time of one hour. The real-time multiplex PCR system extracts and analyzes total microbial DNA from 8 mL of whole blood.

RightBio Metrics gastric pH indicators

January 2025—RightBio Metrics has announced the availability of its RightSpot Gastric pH Indicators. The FDA-cleared, CLIA-waived product uses pH to confirm gastric acidity for tubes intended to end in the stomach. Other than an x-ray, the primary identifier of a properly placed nasogastric or orogastric tube tip, RightBio says, is a pH reading of 5.5 or less. Each indicator is individually packaged in high-density copolymer foil with proprietary surface treatment to prevent air, light, and humidity from penetrating and can be stored at temperatures between -40°C and 52°C.

QIAstat-Dx instruments, assays get IVDR certification

January 2025—Qiagen announced that its QIAstat-Dx syndromic testing systems and associated assays have received CE marking under the European Union in vitro diagnostic medical devices regulation. The certification includes the QIAstat-Dx analyzer, QIAstat-Dx Rise, and panels for detecting gastrointestinal and respiratory illnesses. The submission for IVDR certification of the QIAstat-Dx meningitis/encephalitis panel is expected in the coming months. The company is transitioning more than 180 products to the IVDR framework.

FDA clears Accelerate Arc system

December 2024—Accelerate Diagnostics announced FDA 510(k) clearance of the Accelerate Arc system and BC kit for use with Bruker’s MALDI Biotyper CA system and MBT-CA Sepsityper software extension.
