Colorectal cancer IHC portfolio

Roche colorectal IHC assay panel slide icon
Deliver diagnostic confidence with the Roche colorectal cancer IHC portfolio

Roche offers a robust menu of tools to aid in colorectal cancer diagnostics. The Roche portfolio of assays, including IHC diagnostic assays, deliver the high sensitivity and specificity pathology professionals need.

 

Fully-automated IHC/ISH staining

 

Roche antibodies are ready to use on the fully-automated BenchMark IHC/ISH staining platforms, reducing the time-to-result and resources required with manual or semi-automated solutions.

Featured assays

MLH-1
VENTANA anti-MLH1 (M1) Mouse Monoclonal Primary Antibody
 

VENTANA anti-MLH1 (M1) Mouse Monoclonal Primary Antibody is used to qualitatively identify human DNA mismatch repair (MMR) protein MLH1, expressed in the nucleus of normal proliferating cells.1 Loss of MLH1 is associated with MMR deficiency and microsatellite instability (MSI) in colorectal and other cancers.2,3,4,5

  • Mouse monoclonal antibody
  • Loss of MLH1 in solid tumors may help identify patients eligible for certain immunotherapies1
  • Loss of MLH1 in colorectal cancer may help identify patients with probable Lynch syndrome1
  • Fully automated
PMS2 (EPR3947) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody
VENTANA anti-PMS2 (A16-4) Mouse Monoclonal Primary Antibody
 

VENTANA anti-PMS2 (A16-4) Mouse Monoclonal Primary Antibody is used to qualitatively identify human PMS2 protein, expressed in the nucleus of normal proliferating cells.6 Loss of PMS2 is associated with MMR deficiency and microsatellite instability (MSI) in colorectal and other cancers.6

  • Mouse monoclonal antibody
  • Loss of PMS2 in solid tumors may help identify patients eligible for certain immunotherapies6
  • Loss of PMS2 in colorectal cancer may help identify patients with probable Lynch syndrome6
  • Fully automated
MSH2 (G219-1129)
VENTANA anti-MSH2 (G219-1129) Mouse Monoclonal Primary Antibody
 

VENTANA anti-MSH2 (G219-1129) Mouse Monoclonal Primary Antibody is used to qualitatively identify human MSH2 protein, expressed in the nucleus of normal proliferating cells.7 Loss of MSH2 is associated with MMR deficiency and microsatellite instability (MSI) in colorectal and other cancers.7

  • Mouse monoclonal antibody
  • Loss of MSH2 in solid tumors may help identify patients eligible for certain immunotherapies7
  • Loss of MSH2 in colorectal cancer may help identify patients with probable Lynch syndrome7
  • Fully automated
CONFIRM anti-MSH6 (44)
VENTANA anti-MSH6 (SP93) Rabbit Monoclonal Primary Antibody
 

VENTANA anti-MSH6 (SP93) Rabbit Monoclonal Primary Antibody is used to qualitatively identify human MSH6 protein, expressed in the nucleus of normal proliferating cells.8 Loss of MSH6 is associated with MMR deficiency and microsatellite instability (MSI) in colorectal and other cancers.9,10

  • Rabbit monoclonal antibody
  • Loss of MSH6 in solid tumors may help identify patients eligible for certain immunotherapies8
  • Loss of MSH6 in colorectal cancer may help identify patients with probable Lynch syndrome8
  • Fully automated
BRAF V600E (VE1)
VENTANA anti-BRAF V600E (VE1) Mouse Monoclonal Primary Antibody
 

VENTANA anti-BRAF V600E (VE1) Mouse Monoclonal Primary Antibody is used to qualitatively identify BRAF V600E protein as an aid to differentiate between sporadic colorectal cancer and probable Lynch syndrome, as expression is tightly linked with hypermethylation of the MLH1 promoter and subsequent loss of MLH1 expression in sporadic colorectal cancer.11,12,13,14

  • Mouse monoclonal antibody
  • Expression of BRAF V600E mutant protein in the presence of MLH1 loss in colorectal cancer cells differentiates sporadic cancer from probable Lynch syndrome14
  • Fully automated
  • >95% concordance with Sanger sequencing14
CDX-2 (EPR2764Y)
CDX-2 (EPR2764Y) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody
 

CDX-2 is a caudal-related homeobox transcription factor whose expression in the adult is normally restricted to the intestinal epithelium.15 Loss of CDX-2 protein expression has been correlated with loss of differentiation in colorectal cancers.16 Anti-CDX-2 antibody has been useful in distinguishing gastrointestinal origin of metastatic adenocarcinomas and carcinoids.17

  • Rabbit monoclonal antibody
  • Fully automated
