Action
Roche issued Urgent Medical Device Correction letter on 9/3/21 via UPS Ground. Letter states reason for recall, health risk and action to take: Follow the cobas DNA Sample Preparation Kit (catalog number 05985536190) IFU for sample input with regard to the number of FFPET sections and DNA concentration. Follow the cobas cfDNA Sample Preparation Kit (catalog number 07247737190) IFU for plasma samples. " If an Ex20Ins Mutation Detected result is generated with the cobas EGFR Mutation Test v2, you must confirm the result with another method (e.g., sequencing or other PCR-based tests). " Consider reviewing results generated since May 2021. Amivantamab was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for NSCLC patients with EGFR Ex20Ins on May 21, 2021. Test result reports with Ex20Ins Mutation Detected may be considered for confirmatory testing using sequencing or other PCR-based tests, upon the discretion of a CAP/CLIA laboratory director. " Consult with your facility physician and/or pathologist to determine any clinical implications specific to your patients. " Complete all sections of the enclosed faxback form (TP-01381) and fax it to 1-855-208-4038 or email it to Roche8166@sedgwick.com. " File this UMDC for future reference.
