VENTANA PD-L1 SP263 Assay UC

Driving diagnostic certainty for life-changing decisions in pathology

The VENTANA PD-L1 (SP263) Assay guides immunotherapy decisions by identifying patients with non-small cell carcinoma (NSCLC), eligible for treatment with TECENTRIQ® (atezolizumab) or LIBTAYO® (cemiplimab).1

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for approximately 85% of all lung cancer cases.2 In more than half of newly diagnosed patients, the disease has already metastasized, severely impacting long-term prognosis. While historical five-year relative survival rates for distant disease hovered below 5%, the widespread integration of precision targeted therapies and immunotherapies has nearly doubled that benchmark, though advanced NSCLC remains a critical area of unmet medical need.3,4
