Product catalog summary
Introduction
The document discusses the QuantideX® qPCR BCR-ABL IS Kit, an FDA-cleared assay designed for the ultra-sensitive detection and monitoring of BCR-ABL1 transcripts in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) patients. This assay is crucial for assessing treatment response and determining eligibility for treatment-free remission.

Specifications
The kit offers a clinical sensitivity of 0.002% IS (MR4.7), allowing molecular laboratories to measure deep molecular responses with ease. It includes a multi-point standard curve to reduce variability and eliminate the need for complex sample exchanges. The QuantideX® Reporter software automates the calculation and reporting of %IS, minimizing manual calculation errors.

Optimized Workflow
The assay features a multiplexed design that amplifies and detects fusion and endogenous control genes in a single reaction. All reagents are sourced and quality controlled from a single vendor, ensuring consistency and reliability.

Quality Performance
The Limit of Detection (LOD) is confirmed at MR4.7 (0.002% IS) using clinical human RNA specimens. The kit uses Armored RNA®-based, IS-calibrated standards for accurate RNA quantification.

Proven Sensitivity
Rigorous testing based on CLSI EP17-A2 guidelines determined the LOD by testing human RNA dilutions from MR4.4 to MR6.0, with 60 replicates at each dilution.

Minimal Variability
The assay demonstrates robustness across the entire dynamic range of MR values, with precision evaluated using five different MR levels across multiple lots, operators, runs, and qPCR instruments.

Ordering Information
The QuantideX® qPCR BCR-ABL IS Kit is available for 60 reactions under the order number 49574.

QuantideX® qPCR BCR-ABL IS Kit-1

For Measuring Deep Molecular Responses in CML Patients Advances in TKI therapy have driven 5-year survival rates in CML patients to nearly 90%1 and are making treatment-free remission a reality2. To accurately assess treatment response and determine eligibility for cessation, a rapid, accurate and highly sensitive assay for measurement of disease burden is required. The QuantideX® qPCR BCR-ABL IS Kit is the only FDA-cleared assay for ultra-sensitive detection and precise monitoring of BCR-ABL1 transcripts resulting from the Major breakpoints (e13a2, e14a2). With its simple workflow, direct reporting on the IS, and best-in-class clinical sensitivity - 0.002% IS (MR4.7), any molecular laboratory can now assess the deepest molecular responses with unprecedented ease. REDUCED COMPLEXITY • Multi-point standard curve reduces variability and removes need for costly, complex sample exchange • QuantideX® Reporter software automates calculation and reporting of %IS, reducing burden of manual calculations OPTIMIZED WORKFLOW • Multiplexed design amplifies and detects fusion and endogenous control genes in the same reaction • All-inclusive reagent kits sourced and quality controlled together from a single vendor Figure 1: Kit components QUALITY PERFORMANCE • Limit of Detection (LOD) of MR4.7 (0.002% IS) confirmed in clinical human RNA specimens, not cell lines • Armored RNA®-based, IS-calibrated standards provide true RNA quantification American Cancer Society 2 Saußele S, et al.

Proven Sensitivity Based on Rigorous Testing Criterion to Assess Complete Molecular Response Table 1: LOD as determined by CLSI EP17-A2 guidelines by testing Human RNA dilutions ranging from MR4.4 to MR6.0 - 60 replicates at each dilution for a total of 1680 data points. 10 of the 28 specimens near LOD that maintained <5% undetected results were used to determine LOD. Minimal Variability Across the Entire Dynamic Range of MR Values Demonstrates the Robustness of the Assay Table 2: Precision was evaluated by using 5 different MR levels composed of 5 unique positive specimens each.
