Applied BioCode panel gets FDA clearance

February 2020—Applied BioCode has received FDA 510(k) clearance for its BioCode Respiratory Pathogen Panel for use on the company’s BioCode MDx-3000 system. The panel tests nasopharyngeal swabs for common viruses and bacteria, including influenza A and subtypes H1, H1N1 2009pdm, and H3; influenza B; respiratory syncytial virus A/B; parainfluenza virus types 1–4; human metapneumovirus A/B; adenovirus; rhinovirus/enterovirus; coronavirus (229E, NL63, OC43, and HKU1); Mycoplasma pneumoniae; Chlamydia pneumoniae; and Bordetella pertussis.

FDA approves first vaccine for Ebola virus

February 2020—The U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced the approval of Ervebo (Merck), the first FDA-approved vaccine for the prevention of Ebola virus disease, caused by Zaire ebolavirus, in people 18 years of age and older. Ervebo is administered as a single-dose injection and is a live, attenuated vaccine that has been genetically engineered to contain a protein from the Zaire ebolavirus.

FDA clears Simplexa VZV Swab Direct

February 2020—DiaSorin Molecular has received FDA clearance for its Simplexa VZV Swab Direct assay. The CLIA moderate-complexity assay is designed for use on the Liaison MDX instrument to detect varicella-zoster virus DNA from cutaneous and mucocutaneous swab specimens. The assay complements the company’s Simplexa VZV Direct kit, which is for use with cerebrospinal fluid samples.

Eppendorf launches 25-mL conical tubes

February 2020—Eppendorf has launched 25-mL conical tubes. It is the same diameter as a conventional 50-mL conical tube and comes with either the SnapTec snap cap or screw cap, both of which have high centrifugation stability. The SnapTec cap allows for single-handed opening and closing of the cap. The wide opening of the tube, combined with the lower height, is designed to offer easy sample access.

Genomenon partners with Sophia

February 2020—Genomenon announced a partnership with Sophia Genetics that includes incorporating Genomenon’s Mastermind genomic search engine into the Sophia platform and the Alamut suite.

Qiagen panels for simultaneous DNA, RNA analysis

February 2020—Qiagen introduced QIAseq Multimodal Panels, which offer a consolidated workflow to enrich DNA variants, RNA fusions, and gene expression levels from a single sample, with input as low as 10 ng of total nucleic acid. It reduces the workflow to approximately nine hours, the company reports, by eliminating the need for two workflows from separate DNA and RNA samples.

Codexis, Roche license agreement

February 2020—Codexis, a protein engineering company, announced a license agreement to provide Roche with its EvoT4 DNA ligase high-performance molecular diagnostic enzyme. The enzyme was developed using Codexis’ CodeEvolver protein engineering platform and is expected to be incorporated into Roche’s next-generation sequencing library preparation kits and other sequencing products. The license grants Roche worldwide rights to include the EvoT4 DNA ligase in its nucleic acid sequencing products and workflows.

Roche, Sarepta enter licensing agreement

February 2020—Roche and Sarepta Therapeutics signed a licensing agreement providing Roche exclusive commercial rights, outside the United States, to SRP-9001 (AAVrh74.MHCK7.micro-dystrophin), Sarepta’s investigational gene therapy for Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Under the terms of the agreement, Sarepta will receive an upfront payment of $750 million in cash and $400 million in equity. In addition, Sarepta is eligible to receive regulatory and sales milestones, and royalties on net sales. Roche and Sarepta will equally share global development expenses. As part of the agreement, Roche also obtains an option to acquire ex-U.S. rights to certain future DMD-specific programs from Sarepta, in exchange for separate milestone and royalty considerations, and cost sharing.
