cobas 4800 for hpv detection and genotyping
TRANSCRIPT
cobas® 4800 HPV Test1
Designed for clinical relevance, reliability, and accuracy
Assay Design and Sample Options
Multiple Specimen Types
Primary Vial Loading On the Automated Sample Preparation Instrument
Minimal Sample Input Volume Required
State-of-the-Art Sample Prep
High Throughput
Designed as a qualitative single tube multiplex assay that simultaneously detects 14 high-risk genotypes, identifies HPV Type 16 & 18, and ß-globin is used as an internal control.
Test options include:• HPV-HR only (which provides qualitative result)• HPV-HR + Genotype (GT) 16/18 (which provides HPV-HR result
and separate qualitative result for Type 16 and Type 18)
Plans include validation in both PreservCyt® and SurePathTM Liquid Based Cytology (LBC) vials. A Roche labeled specimen collection kit is also planned for stand-alone DNA tests for samples run separately or cases where conventional PAP smears are common.
Sample carriers are available to load primary LBC vials directly onboard the sample prep system, minimizing hands on time for transfer of sample.
Only 400 µL input volume is required for each test. Depending on residual volume remaining from PAP process, options include: loading primary vial or transferring to a secondary tube (requires 800 µL total volume). Ideal when residual samples are below 4 mL.
Sample preparation is based on the state-of-the-art magnetic glass particles chemistry. Onboard heating and mixing of media and cervical cells provides superior sample preparation product. Specialized pipetting technology combined with AmpErase enzymes reduces cross contamination risk.
The cobas® 4800 System is designed to process up to 280 samples in one day. One test can provide up to 3 results: (HPV-HR, GT 16, GT 18) to enhance testing efficiency.
1 System and assay in development; Not available for in vitro diagnostic use at this time
Less Hands-On Time
Clinical Relevance
Robust PCR Test
Quality Controls
Clear and Definitive Results
Workflow Timeline*
Collection tubes are placed directly onto the sample preparation instrument, eliminating the need for manual handling of samples, reducing time and the potential for cross contamination. Manual processing intervention is limited to the transfer of the plate to the cobas z 480 analyzer for amplification and detection.
Newly designed primers and probes target a well defined L1 region for DNA
Expect to correlate to detect medically relevant pre-cancer ≥ CIN2+
Medical decision point to balance clinical specificity and clinical sensitivity to ensure application is suitable for screening and to achieve guidelines and benchmarks2
Information on infection with genotypes 16 and 18, which have been shown to increase risk for cervical disease and provide “actionable” data for immediate follow-up3
Assay designed to correctly identify genotypes important for HPV–HR panel and not to cross react with low–risk types
• Internal Control (ß-globin) for full process monitoring – from extraction to detection, ensuring effective sample preparation, amplification, and target detection
• Positive and Negative Controls are included in every run – to validate the results obtained
• AmpErase enzymes helps control contamination from amplicon carry over
Results can be Positive, Negative, or Invalid.*
No indeterminate results are expected; reduces need for retesting.
* Invalid results identify specimen inhibition detected by the Internal Control as means to prevent false negative results.
Total run time to result: 4.5 hours per run – 94 patient samplesSample prep: 2.5 hoursDetection: 2 hoursHands-on time: < 20 minutes (estimated)**
Next run can start as soon as the PCR plate is transferred from cobas x 480 instrument. No centrifugation or incubation required.
*Each laboratory may have a different workflow that may result in a somewhat different outcome.
**Limited to loading of samples and reagents and transfer of microwell plate from cobas x 480 instrument to cobas z 480 analyzer.
