The BD Onclarity HPV Assay is a qualitative in vitro test designed for the detection of Human Papillomavirus (HPV) in cervical specimens. It utilizes Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) amplification and nucleic acid hybridization to identify 14 high-risk HPV types in a single analysis, specifically distinguishing types 16, 18, and 45 while concurrently detecting others.

This assay is intended for use with cervical specimens collected by a clinician using an endocervical brush, spatula, or broom and placed in a BD SurePath vial. It is indicated for cervical cancer screening, adjunctive screening, and the management of patients with atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASC-US) in accordance with professional guidelines. The device is authorized under FDA PMA and IVDR regulations.
