ONE & ONLY PCR Panel With 167 Variants Across 11 Target Genes in a Single Run
The AmoyDx® Pan Lung Cancer PCR Panel (PLC Panel) is a tissue-based, real-time, qPCR assay for in vitro diagnostics (IVD). The PLC Panel enables qualitative detection of up to 167 variants (85 DNA mutations and 82 RNA fusions) in 11 genes (EGFR, ALK, ROS1, KRAS, BRAF, HER2, RET, MET, NTRK1, NTRK2, and NTRK3), identifying all NCCN recommended biomarkers in a single PCR run. The PLC Panel is intended to assist in identifying clinically relevant biomarkers for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who may be eligible for approved targeted therapies at minimal cost. The kit is for in vitro diagnostic use and intended to be used by trained professionals in a laboratory environment.
Clinical Performance
The clinical performance of PLC Panel was validated in a concordance study by LC-SCRUM-Japan.1 Results were highly concordant with the reference NGS assay for alterations (fusion, indels, SNVs) across 11 actionable biomarkers.
