The only FDA-approved and CE-IVD marked test for PD-L1 expression associated with enhanced survival with OPDIVO® (nivolumab) for non-squamous NSCLC.2
PD-L1 IHC 28-8 pharmDx is a complementary diagnostic for PD-L1 expression in non-squamous NSCLC.
Patients with PD-L1 expression by all predefined expression levels in the OPDIVO group were associated with enhanced survival compared to docetaxel.
≥ 1% PD-L1 expression → 41% Reduction in Risk of Death (HR = 0.59) 17.1 months median OS vs. 9 months for docetaxel
≥ 5% PD-L1 expression → 57% Reduction in Risk of Death (HR = 0.43) 18.2 months median OS vs. 8.1 months for docetaxel
≥ 10% PD-L1 expression → 60% Reduction in Risk of Death (HR = 0.40) 19.4 months median OS vs. 8 months for docetaxel
PD-L1 testing is not required for the use of OPDIVO, but it will provide additional information for physicians and inform patient dialogue.
In patients with no PD-L1 expression (< 1%), survival with OPDIVO was similar to docetaxel.
Dako PD-L1 IHC 28-8 pharmDx is FDA approved and, as well as CE-IVD marked and fully validated with analytical performance having met all pre-determined acceptance criteria for sensitivity, specificity and precision.1

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-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and melanoma tissue using EnVision FLEX visualization system on Autostainer Link 48. PD-L1 protein expression is defined as the percentage of tumor cells exhibiting positive membrane staining at any intensity.
PD-L1 expression as detected by PD-L1 IHC 28-8 pharmDx in non-squamous NSCLC may be associated with enhanced survival from OPDIVO® (nivolumab).
PD-L1 expression as detected by PD-L1 IHC 28-8 pharmDx in melanoma may be used as an aid in the assessment of patients for whom OPDIVO® (nivolumab) and YERVOY® (ipilimumab) combination treatment is being considered.1
