February 2020—Foundation Medicine has received FDA approval for its FoundationOne CDx to be used as a companion diagnostic for Piqray (alpelisib) in combination with fulvestrant for the treatment of postmenopausal women, and men, with hormone receptor–positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2–negative, PIK3CA-mutated advanced or metastatic breast cancer following progression on or after an endocrine-based regimen.
February 2020—Quest Diagnostics has acquired certain assets of the clinical laboratory services business of Boston Clinical Laboratories, based in Waltham, Mass.
February 2020—Myriad Genetics announced that the FDA has approved BRACAnalysis CDx for use as a companion diagnostic to identify patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer who have a germline BRCA mutation and are candidates for treatment with PARP inhibitor olaparib (Lynparza, AstraZeneca). BRACAnalysis CDx is the first FDA-approved genetic test for this indication, the company reports. Myriad Genetics, 801-584-3600
February 2020—The FDA authorized marketing of the Cobas VivoDx MRSA (Roche Molecular Systems) diagnostic test based on bacterial viability and novel technology to detect methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus bacterial colonization. The Cobas VivoDx MRSA test uses a new bacteriophage technology based on bioluminescence to detect MRSA from nasal swab samples in as few as five hours compared with 24 to 48 hours for conventional culture. The FDA reviewed data from performance studies in which the Cobas VivoDx MRSA test correctly identified
February 2020—The FDA granted accelerated approval to Enhertu (fam-trastuzumab deruxtecan-nxki) for the treatment of adults with unresectable or metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer who have received two or more prior anti-HER2–based regimens in the metastatic setting. Enhertu is a human epidermal growth factor receptor 2–directed antibody and topoisomerase inhibitor conjugate.
February 2020—Siemens Healthineers announced the availability of its Enhanced Liver Fibrosis testing service in the United States, excluding New York State, and Puerto Rico. The testing service is provided by the Siemens Healthcare Laboratory.
January 2020—Olympus introduced its Slideview VS200 slide scanner, designed to capture high-resolution images for quantitative analysis for brain, cancer, and stem cell research, as well as drug discovery. The scanner uses Olympus X Line objectives, which are designed to deliver flatter images with a wide field of view and no intensity fall off at the periphery, improve numerical aperture, and offer a wider range of chromatic correction.
January 2020—ALPCO announced that the FDA granted its Calprotectin Chemiluminescence ELISA 510(k) clearance. It is intended for in vitro diagnostic use as an aid in the diagnosis of inflammatory bowel disease, specifically Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, and as an aid in the differentiation of IBD from irritable bowel syndrome, in conjunction with other clinical and laboratory findings.
January 2020—Personal Genome Diagnostics received the CE mark for the PGDx Elio Tissue Complete assay. The panel is a 507-gene test for somatic alterations that detects single nucleotide variants, small indels, amplifications, rearrangements, microsatellite instability, and tumor mutation burden.
January 2020—Genentech announced positive data from the phase three IMpower110 study evaluating Tecentriq (atezolizumab) as a first-line monotherapy compared with cisplatin or carboplatin and pemetrexed or gemcitabine in advanced nonsquamous and squamous non-small cell lung cancer without ALK or EGFR mutations.
