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 Cente, and Colin Murphy, CEO of mTuitive.

March 2016—Sakura Finetek USA announced the acquisition of Genemed Biotechnologies’ tissue-based advanced staining business for cancer detection, diagnosis, and monitoring. Genemed’s liquid-based molecular testing products were not included in the acquisition and will be spun out as an independent business.
March 2016—ScyTek Laboratories announced the availability of its Multiplex TTF-1 and Cytokeratin 5 Cocktail. This multiplex cocktail of TTF-1 and cytokeratin 5 produces two-color, high-contrast staining for differentiating primary adenocarcinoma of the lung from metastatic carcinomas of the breast and malignant mesothelioma. This cocktail can increase sensitivity and diagnostic utility in differential diagnosis of the tumor.
March 2016—PerkinElmer has acquired Vanadis Diagnostics. Based in Sweden, Vanadis is developing a novel solution for non-invasive prenatal testing based on digital analysis of cell-free DNA.
March 2016—Definiens released its Tissue Studio 4.2 software package. The updated product suites provide improved image analysis functionality for scientists in academic medical centers, comprehensive cancer centers, and biotech and pharmaceutical companies.
March 2016—Quidel has received the CE mark for its Sofia S. pneumoniae fluorescent immunoassay for use with the Sofia Fluorescent Immunoassay Analyzer. The Sofia S. pneumoniae FIA enables the qualitative detection of Streptococcus pneumoniae antigen in the urine of patients with pneumonia and in the cerebral spinal fluid of patients with meningitis in 10 minutes.
March 2016—Medivation and NanoString Technologies have entered into a collaboration, together with Astellas Pharma, to pursue the translation of a novel gene expression signature algorithm from Medivation into a companion diagnostic assay using NanoString’s nCounter Dx Analysis System.
March 2016—Quantimetrix introduced a new formulation for Dip&Spin Urinalysis Dipstick/Microscopics Control. The formulation now features improved crystal sediment components with calcium oxalate dihydrate in their native octahedral morphology and are readily identifiable via standard light microscopy and automated microscopy methods.
March 2016—Advanced Biological Laboratories launched its DeepChek SingleRound HIV and Hepatitis C Virus Genotyping and Sequencing assays. The DeepChek SingleRound HIV RT-PCR and Sequencing Assay detects the major HIV-1 subtypes and combines the reagents (including enzymes) and protocols required to perform the amplification and sequencing of reverse transcriptase, protease, and integrase.
March 2016—ArcherDX, in partnership with Horizon Discovery Group, launched the Archer SureShot ALK, RET, ROS1 Fusion Control to benchmark greater confidence in gene fusion detection using Archer FusionPlex Panels. The reference control is composed of FFPE curls of homogeneously mixed, precisely defined cell lines that contain EML4-ALK, CCDC6-RET, and SLC34A2-ROS1 fusions.
March 2016—Beckman Coulter Diagnostics obtained a CE mark for and released its new Access TSH (3rd IS) assay for use with the company’s Access family of immunoassay systems. This assay is the next generation of the Access Hypersensitive hTSH and Access Fast hTSH assays for the quantitative determination of human thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH, thyrotropin) levels in human serum and plasma.
