April 2022—The FDA has approved Bristol Myers Squibb’s Opdivo (nivolumab) in combination with platinum-doublet chemotherapy for adult patients with resectable non-small cell lung cancer in the neoadjuvant setting. The treatment is approved regardless of PD-L1 status and is based on the CheckMate -816 trial, the first positive phase three trial of an immunotherapy-based combination used before surgery for resectable NSCLC.
April 2022—Beckman Coulter Life Sciences has entered into an agreement with AmoyDx to develop applications on the Biomek NGenius liquid handling system. The Biomek NGenius system is scheduled to launch in the second quarter of this year; it is not intended or validated for use in diagnosis of disease or other conditions.
April 2022—Roche launched its Avenio Edge System, an all-in-one preanalytical platform that is designed to minimize manual touchpoints and includes ready-to-load reagents, validated protocols, onboard capabilities, and intuitive software to manage next-generation sequencing sample workflows.
April 2022—Roche announced the launch of the Cobas Pulse system, the company’s newest generation of connected POC solutions for professional blood glucose management, in select countries accepting the CE mark.
April 2022—Tribun Health announced it won a 2022 “Best in KLAS” award for digital pathology in Europe. The Best in KLAS report from KLAS Research recognizes software and services companies that excel in helping health care professionals improve patient care.
January 2022—Death investigators are tasked with the responsibility of providing irrefutable and accurate determinations in the cause and manner of death in a timely fashion for ongoing investigations. Outcomes of any death may be revealed by the specimens submitted for toxicology analysis. The conundrum of ample opinions is that there is no “one size fits all” when selecting appropriate specimens. Human nature tends to rely on traditional approaches for the collection, processing, and reporting of results because it’s easier to stay status quo. However, with drug overdose deaths increasing, reports are further delayed, causing an influx of backlogged cases. To assist with these issues, our laboratory developed an economical, time-efficient, safe, and less-invasive collection method that delivers real-time results within 24 to 48 hours, accelerating the autopsy process and the ability to close cases expeditiously.
January 2022—Roche launched its Cobas 5800 system in countries accepting the CE mark. The real-time PCR molecular testing solution is built to offer a fully automated workflow that encompasses sample supply, transfer and preparation, amplification and detection, result calculation, and delivery to the laboratory information system. The single module enables a walkaway time of up to eight hours.
January 2022—Seegene unveiled the Novaplex SARS-CoV-2 Variants VII assay for research use only. The assay identifies positive COVID-19 cases and distinguishes between alpha, beta, gamma, delta, and omicron and its stealth version. The RT-PCR test targets five analytes including the RdRP gene and three omicron S-gene mutations, E484A, N501Y, HV69/70 deletion. It also targets endogenous internal controls, which serve as a control to verify specimen validity.
December 2021—Hardy Diagnostics has released its HardyChrom Candida plus auris, a chromogenic media recommended for the selective isolation and differential identification of Candida species. This medium allows for the identification of C. albicans, C. tropicalis, and C. krusei, and the presumptive identification of C. glabrata.
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.
