PATHWAY anti-HER2/neu (4B5) Rabbit Monoclonal Primary Antibody

Roche Pathway HER2 4B5 assay slide and therapy image

Leading the way in HER2 testing

The use of pre-diluted PATHWAY anti-HER2/neu (4B5) Rabbit Monoclonal Primary Antibody1 (PATHWAY HER2 (4B5)), in combination with the fully automated BenchMark IHC/ISH slide staining instrument, standardizes all IHC processes from baking through staining, and reduces the possibility of human error.1 It also minimizes inherent variability resulting from individual reagent dilution and other processes found in manual and semi-automated IHC methods.

The Roche HER2 (4B5) clone* empowers you to:

  • Achieve consistently high proficiency assessment scores with the Roche HER2 (4B5) clone, compared to other clones2
  • Employ the most widely adopted and reliable HER2 IHC primary antibody2
  • Demonstrate high concordance with HER2 FISH3,4

*Refers to the PATHWAY anti-HER2/neu (4B5) Rabbit Monoclonal Primary Antibody and VENTANA anti-HER2/neu (4B5) Rabbit Monoclonal Primary Antibody products.

Intended use

The PATHWAY anti-HER2/neu (4B5) Rabbit Monoclonal Primary Antibody (PATHWAY anti-HER2 (4B5) antibody) is a rabbit monoclonal antibody intended for laboratory use for the semi-quantitative detection of HER2 antigen in sections of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded normal and neoplastic breast tissue using the ultraView Universal DAB Detection Kit on a BenchMark ULTRA instrument.

This IHC device is indicated for identifying breast cancer patients who are eligible for treatment with Herceptin® (IHC 3+ or IHC 2+/ISH amplified), KADCYLA® (IHC 3+ or IHC 2+/ISH amplified) or ENHERTU® (IHC 1+ or IHC 2+/ISH non-amplified).

This product should be interpreted by a qualified pathologist in conjunction with histological examination, relevant clinical information, and proper controls.

This antibody is intended for in vitro diagnostic (IVD) use.

HER2 positive / overexpression
* Recommend re-reading by a second pathologist for cases with “faint, partial staining of the membrane” and %TC near the threshold of 10%, when the range of %TC is between 5%-25%
** Recommend reflex test to assess gene amplification per ASCO/CAP guidance

Intended use

The PATHWAY anti-HER2/neu (4B5) Rabbit Monoclonal Primary Antibody (PATHWAY HER2 (4B5)) is a rabbit monoclonal antibody intended for laboratory use for the semi-quantitative detection of HER2 antigen in sections of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded normal and neoplastic tissue following staining on a BenchMark XT or BenchMark ULTRA instrument. It is indicated as an aid in the assessment of breast cancer patients for whom Herceptin® (trastuzumab) or KADCYLA® are being considered.

This antibody is intended for in vitro diagnostic (IVD) use.

Note: All of the patients in the Herceptin clinical trials were selected using a clinical trial assay. None of the patients in those trials were selected using PATHWAY anti-HER2/neu (4B5). PATHWAY anti-HER2/neu (4B5) was compared to PATHWAY HER2 (clone CB11) Primary Antibody on an independent sample set and found to provide acceptably concordant results. The actual correlation of PATHWAY anti-HER2/neu (4B5) to clinical outcome has not been established.

This product should be interpreted by a qualified pathologist in conjunction with histological examination, relevant clinical information, and proper controls.

This antibody is intended for in vitro diagnostic (IVD) use.
