Orderable Test Description
<p>PD-L1 IHC 28-8 pharmDx is a qualitative immunohistochemical assay using Monoclonal Rabbit Anti-PD-L1, clone 28-8 intended for use in the detection of PD-L1 protein in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tissues using EnVision FLEX visualization system on Autostainer Link 48. PD-L1 IHC 28-8 pharmDx is indicated as an aid in identifying NSCLC patients for treatment with OPDIVO&reg; (nivolumab) or OPDIVO in combination with YERVOY&reg; (ipilimumab). Results are considered positive for either treatment when PD-L1 is expressed in &ge;1% of tumor cells (TC). Stain-only (tech-only) testing is available to clients who have completed the test kit manufacturer&trade;s online interpretation training. Please note: PD-L1 testing is not required for use of OPDIVA&reg; in non-squamous NSCLC, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma or urothelial carcinoma, but may provide physicians more information and inform patient dialogue.</p>
