TEST:
MRDx BCR-ABL Test

Company:
Icon plc
Type:
FDA Approved
The MolecularMD MRDx BCR-ABL Test is an in vitro diagnostic test for the quantitative detection of BCR-ABL1 transcripts (e13a2/b2a2 and/or e14a2/b3a2) and the ABL1 endogenous control mRNA in peripheral blood specimens from patients previously diagnosed with t(9:22) positive chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). The test utilizes quantitative, real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction performed on the Applied Biosystems 7500 Fast Dx instrument. The MolecularMD MRDx BCR-ABL Test is intended to measure BCR-ABL mRNA transcript levels in patients diagnosed with t(9;22) positive CML during monitoring of treatment with Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors (TKIs).
