Hear an expert discuss how Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) is utilizing
the oncoReveal® Nexus 21-gene panel to redefine turnaround time and actionable insights
in cancer care. Dr. Ewalt shares a perceptive look at the clinical need for rapid, front-line NGS sequencing, and how a unique, purpose built targeted NGS panel (Pillar Biosciences’ oncoReveal Nexus 21 gene Panel) was developed, validated and implemented clinically by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK-REACT) to complement their current comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) approach.

December 2021—Bio-Rad Laboratories launched an enhanced version of its Liquichek Diabetes Control. The liquid, human whole-blood–based control comes in three levels to address the HbA1c precision monitoring needs of a wide range of test methods.
December 2021—Bio-Rad Laboratories launched its Bio-Plex Pro Human IgA and IgM SARS-CoV-2 panels to detect IgA and IgM antibodies against four SARS-CoV-2 antigens. The two new panels along with the company’s existing Bio-Plex Pro Human IgG SARS-CoV-2 N/RBD/S1/S2 4-Plex panel aim to assist researchers in developing vaccines and to help public health researchers who perform seroprevalence studies based on serology specimens identify individuals who may have been exposed to SARS-CoV-2.
December 2021—Qiagen announced that the FDA has approved the Liaison QuantiFeron-TB Gold Plus assay for use on DiaSorin’s automated Liaison XS platform. The Liaison QuantiFeron-TB Gold Plus tests for interferon gamma released from T cells that have encountered TB. The assay was developed by Qiagen and DiaSorin to offer streamlined laboratory automation for latent TB screening.
December 2021—PixCell Medical (Yokne’am Illit, Israel) announced it has opened a U.S. subsidiary in the Denver metropolitan area. The new office aims to increase logistical and commercial support for the company’s U.S. clients and will handle order fulfilment across the country as well as provide additional clinical and technical support to customers.
December 2021—Sysmex introduced its TH-11 Urine Sample Decapper Unit, which is designed to be used in conjunction with the Sysmex UN-Series Automated Urinalysis Solution. The unit is intended to eliminate manual decapping work, which can reduce workplace repetitive injuries, streamline work processes, and reduce exposure to biological hazards. The TH-11 comes in desktop or wagon modules.
December 2021—Lighthouse Lab Services announced that the FDA has granted emergency use authorization for its CovidNow SARS-CoV-2 assay kit. The EUA covers use for symptomatic and asymptomatic patients with a provider’s order.
December 2021—Roche has launched the Avenio Tumor Tissue Comprehensive Genomic Profiling Kit, complementing the current CGP portfolio offered by Roche and Foundation Medicine.
December 2021—The results of Olympus’ ongoing joint research program to create an AI-based pathology diagnostic tool were announced at the Japan Society of Digital Pathology Study annual meeting. The AI tool was able to achieve 100 percent sensitivity and 50 percent or higher specificity for all gastric biopsy pathology specimens analyzed from the six facilities participating in the study.
December 2021—Bio-Rad announced its Exact Diagnostics RP Positive Run Control for syndromic respiratory panels is now available with inactivated whole virus for SARS-CoV-2. The unassayed external quality control contains 23 respiratory analytes in one vial and is intended to monitor the performance of clinical respiratory assays. The control is a combination of whole, intact virus and bacteria that have been heated or chemically inactivated and synthetic RNA transcripts.
December 2021—LumiraDx announced that the FDA’s emergency use authorization for its SARS-CoV-2 antigen test has been expanded to include screening of asymptomatic individuals. This claim builds on its existing claim that covers use of the test in individuals suspected of having COVID-19 by their health care provider within 12 days of symptom onset. The test received EUA in August 2020.
