Overview
AI-generated summary, 18 Sep 2026
The Idylla CDx MSI Test is an in vitro diagnostic test for the qualitative detection of seven monomorphic biomarkers (ACVR2A, BTBD7, DIDO1, MRE11, RYR3, SEC31A and SULF2) to identify microsatellite instability (MSI) in colorectal cancer (CRC) tissue. It uses formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue sections from CRC patients, extracting nucleic acids and analyzing them through PCR amplification and melt-curve analysis to report MSI status as Microsatellite Stable (MSS), Microsatellite Instability-High (MSI-H), or invalid.
The test is intended as a companion diagnostic to identify CRC patients with MSI-H status who may benefit from treatment with OPDIVO (nivolumab) as monotherapy and/or in combination with YERVOY (ipilimumab). It is for in vitro diagnostic use only, requires prescription, and is designed for use exclusively on the Biocartis Idylla System. The device is classified as a Class III nucleic acid-based assay for microsatellite instability.
Questions
AI-generated answers, 18 Sep 2026
What is the purpose of the Idylla CDx MSI Test?
The test is designed to detect microsatellite instability (MSI) in colorectal cancer tissue by identifying seven specific biomarkers. It helps identify patients with MSI-H status who may benefit from treatment with OPDIVO (nivolumab) alone or in combination with YERVOY (ipilimumab).
What type of tissue sample is required for the Idylla CDx MSI Test?
The test requires formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue sections from patients with colorectal cancer. These samples are used to extract nucleic acids for analysis through PCR amplification and melt-curve analysis.
How is the Idylla CDx MSI Test supplied and stored?
The test is supplied as an in vitro diagnostic device that must be used exclusively on the Biocartis Idylla System. It requires prescription and is for in vitro diagnostic use only. Specific storage conditions are not detailed in the provided information.
What are the possible results from the Idylla CDx MSI Test?
The test reports MSI status as either Microsatellite Stable (MSS), Microsatellite Instability-High (MSI-H), or invalid. This classification helps determine potential treatment options for colorectal cancer patients.
Is the Idylla CDx MSI Test approved by regulatory authorities?
The device has received FDA PMA approval, as indicated by the FDA_PMA authorization status and the decision code APPR with a decision date of 2025-08-15. It is classified as a Class III nucleic acid-based assay for microsatellite instability.
