Device bcr/abl1 monitoring test
Regulation Description BCR-ABL quantitation test.
Definition A BCR/ABL1 Monitoring Test is a quantitative in vitro diagnostic device used to monitor the BCR/ABL1 to ABL1 ratio by reverse-transcriptase quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RQ-PCR) on whole blood or bone marrow of diagnosed Philadelphia chromosome positive (Ph+) chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients expressing BCR-ABL1 fusion transcripts such as e13a2 and/or e14a2. It is intended for use during monitoring of treatment response by reporting results on the international scale (%IS) and as log molecular reduction (MR) value.
Physical State Multiplex quantitative RT-PCR assay to detect chromosome translocation fusion transcripts and control transcripts test system.
Technical Method The test uses multiplex reverse–transcriptase polymerase chain reaction to detect and determine BCR-ABL1 (such as e13a2 and/or e14a2) fusion transcript levels and quantifies them relative to levels of ABL1 transcript (or other validated control gene). The test may utilize other technologies and/or quantification methods.
Target Area Peripheral human whole blood or bone marrow.
