The Need

Breast cancer biomarker ER/PGR/HER2/Ki-67 results need to be dependable and objective

Clinicians need more reliable ER/PGR/HER2/Ki-67 assessment in FFPE tumor tissues.
5% of HER2 IHC results are equivocal based upon guide line recommended classifications.¹
Resolving HER2 IHC2+ equivocal results with FISH is challenging.^1-4
Technical and observer variability can lead to approximately 20% inaccurate ER and PGR results.⁵
Ki-67 IHC scores deviate due to a lack of standardization.⁶

The Solution

Xpert^® Breast Cancer STRAT4 paves the way for a standardized, precise and reliable ER/PGR/HER2/Ki-67 mRNA assessment in less than 2 hours

Xpert Breast Cancer STRAT4 delivers semi-quantitative determination of ER/PGR/HER2/Ki-67 mRNA levels in FFPE invasive breast cancer sections
- CYFIP1* reference gene is used for sample normalization
- Three controls included in each test
- Software report allows for objective and easy result interpretation
- External FFPE controls^# available for identifying errors, shifts, trends and operator variabilities

CYFIP1: Cytoplasmic FMR1 interacting protein 1
^# For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedure. Not reviewed by any regulatory body.
