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.
Moderated by: Bob McGonnagle, Publisher, CAP TODAY

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

February 2024—TechLab’s C. Diff Quik Chek Complete test is a rapid membrane enzyme immunoassay for the simultaneous detection of Clostridium difficile glutamate dehydrogenase antigen and toxins A and B in a single reaction well. Results are available in less than 30 minutes.
February 2024—Fujirebio announced the availability of its Lumipulse G pTau 217 plasma assay for the fully automated Lumipulse G immunoassay systems. The chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay provides a quantitative measurement of pTau 217 in human K2EDTA plasma within 35 minutes. The assay is for research use only.
February 2024—Roche launched the LightCycler Pro system, designed and labeled for research and in vitro diagnostic workflows. Enhancements of this LightCycler system include a new vapor chamber for temperature uniformity across the block, new and improved software algorithms, and updated software and user interface. Users can develop their own tests or choose from a portfolio of more than 200 LightMix modular research assays and more than 60 LightMix CE-IVD assays from Roche subsidiary TIB Molbiol.

January 2024—The Food and Drug Administration approved Adzynma (Takeda Pharmaceuticals), the first recombinant protein product indicated for prophylactic or on-demand enzyme replacement therapy in adult and pediatric patients with congenital thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (cTTP), a rare and life-threatening blood clotting disorder.
January 2024—The Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute, Association of Public Health Laboratories, American Society for Microbiology, the CAP, and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have jointly developed a breakpoint implementation toolkit (BIT) to assist clinical laboratories in updating minimal inhibitory concentration breakpoints. The toolkit includes links to other resources that explain the rationale behind breakpoint updates, regulatory requirements for updating breakpoints, and detailed instructions for performing an AST breakpoint validation or verification. Manufacturers of AST systems can provide guidance on breakpoints used and clearance status with their systems.
