PD-L1 IHC 28-8 pharmDx interpretation training

More Personalized Cancer Results. One Test Makes it Possible.
Agilent Dako
PD-L1 IHC 28-8 pharmDx is FDA-approved assay for use in the detection of PD-L1 protein in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), non-squamous NSCLC (nsNSCLC), squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN), and urothelial carcinoma (UC)

The PD-L1 IHC 28-8 pharmDx interpretation training is a comprehensive program with in-depth content and practice cases focused on helping pathologists to:

  • Understand the role of immune checkpoint pathways
  • Learn about technical considerations for optimal slide staining results
  • Learn how to evaluate NSCLC, non-squamous NSCLC, SCCHN and UC specimens stained with PD-L1 IHC 28-8 pharmDx
Enhanced NSCLC, non-squamous NSCLC, SCCHN, and UC training programs with virtual microscope for increased confidence in scoring PD-L1 stained slides.

Intended Use

For in vitro diagnostic use.

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), squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN), and urothelial carcinoma (UC) tissues using EnVision FLEX visualization system on Autostainer Link 48.

PD-L1 protein expression is defined as the percentage of evaluable tumor cells exhibiting partial or complete membrane staining at any intensity.

PD-L1 IHC 28-8 pharmDx is indicated as an aid in identifying NSCLC patients for treatment with OPDIVO® (nivolumab) in combination with YERVOY® (ipilimumab).

PD-L1 expression (≥ 1% or ≥ 5% or ≥ 10% tumor cell expression), as detected by PD-L1 IHC 28-8 pharmDx in non-squamous NSCLC may be associated with enhanced survival from OPDIVO®.

PD-L1 expression (≥ 1% tumor cell expression), as detected by PD-L1 IHC 28-8 pharmDx in SCCHN may be associated with enhanced survival from OPDIVO®.

PD-L1 expression (≥ 1% tumor cell expression), as detected by PD-L1 IHC 28-8 pharmDx in UC may be associated with enhanced response rate from OPDIVO®.

See the OPDIVO® and YERVOY® product labels for specific clinical circumstances guiding PD-L1 testing.
