Enzyme calibration verifiers for creatine kinase testing

September 2024—Verichem Laboratories now offers multilevel calibration verification materials for creatine kinase activity as part of its liquid-stable, ready-to-use Enzyme ER Verifier kit. The calibration verifiers are intended to be treated as patient specimens and are available for use on a variety of wet clinical chemistry systems, including from Beckman Coulter, Abbott, Siemens Healthineers, and Roche. The kit contains 5 mL of material for each of the six levels and is stable for 18 months from the manufacturing date.

Thermo Fisher, NCI partner on myeloMATCH umbrella trial

September 2024—Thermo Fisher Scientific is partnering with the National Cancer Institute on the myeloMATCH (Molecular Analysis for Therapy Choice) precision medicine umbrella trial to help accelerate research into new treatments for acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome. The study involves testing patients’ bone marrow and blood for certain genetic biomarkers using Thermo Fisher’s next-generation sequencing technology so clinical sites can more quickly match patients with an appropriate clinical trial that tests a treatment designed to target specific mutations present in the samples.

Cepheid Xpert HCV gets FDA authorization, waiver

September 2024—Cepheid has received FDA de novo marketing authorization and CLIA waiver approval for its Xpert HCV, the first point-of-care hepatitis C RNA test. The test can accurately detect active HCV infection from individuals at risk and/or with signs and symptoms of HCV infection with or without antibodies to HCV from a capillary blood sample.

Qiagen, Myriad to develop HRD test

September 2024—Qiagen and Myriad Genetics announced they will develop a globally distributable kit-based test for analyzing homologous recombination deficiency status. This next-generation sequencing test aims to support research into personalized medicine in multiple solid tumor types, including ovarian cancer, and is expected to enhance decentralized testing capacities once a regulated product is developed with pharmaceutical partners. The project builds on the master collaboration agreement that the companies announced in October 2023.

Bio-Rad launches Specialty Immunoassay Plus controls

September 2024—Bio-Rad Laboratories has launched its Specialty Immunoassay Plus, a four-level, comprehensive, independent specialty immunoassay quality control designed to monitor the precision of laboratory specialty immunoassay testing procedures. The product is available in barcoded, load-and-go InteliQ and standard vial Liquichek configurations and features clinically relevant ana­lytes such as procalcitonin, interleukin-6, active vitamin B12, anti-TSH receptor, thyroid stimulating immunoglobulins, fructosamine, and others. It also contains optimized vitamin D ranges to support Vitamin D Standardization Program–compliant assays and improved intact parathyroid hormone open-vial stability to minimize QC waste. With the Unity data management software, laboratories can compare results across a large peer group of reporting labs.
