Revolutionizing healthcare one cell at a time HPV OncoTect E6, E7 mrna Kit A highly specific molecular test for early detection of cervical cancer
Numerous studies confirm that the presence of HR HPV DNA is a necessary cause of cervical cancer. 1 However, only a small percentage of HR HPV DNA infections result in pre-cancerous lesions ( CIN2). 2 Additional data now demonstrates that E6 and E7 mrna is a more specific indication of cellular transformation and the presence of CIN2. 3,5,6,7,8,9,10
HPV OncoTect E6, E7 mrna Kit A highly specific molecular test for early detection of cervical cancer NOW AVAILABLE: The HPV OncoTect E6, E7 mrna Kit is a unique detection method that measures both the number of transforming cells and the quantity of E6, E7 mrna in each cell. 5 These two measurements precisely assess the overexpression of E6, E7 mrna in routine patient samples collected in ThinPrep and Surepath vials to further refine accuracy and specificity of HPV testing. Flow cytometry simplified: No requirement for extraction of nucleic acid, eliminating cross contamination Results available in 3 hours for fast turnaround time Variable batch sizes (24 or 96 specimens) for flexible throughput Result output is clearly stated to indicate positive or negative Adaptable to most flow cytometers Clinical Performance of HPV OncoTect E6, E7 mrna Kit: Equivalent clinical sensitivity to HR HPV DNA Tests (95% detection of CIN2) Significant increase in specificity Unique specimen adequacy feature: > Quantifies number of ectocervical and endocervical cells > Quantifies the presence of obscuring inflammatory cells
REVOLUTIONIZING HEALTHCARE ONE CELL AT A TIME Overexpression of E6, E7 within the cell makes the difference Many women with positive test results from a HR HPV DNA Test will have normal biopsy. The HPV OncoTect E6, E7 mrna Test is only positive if there is overexpression of E6, E7. In the life cycle of the human papillomavirus, the overexpression of E6, E7 mrna in a cell is the molecular switch leading to cervical cancer. 3,4 Mature Squamous Layer HR HPV DNA Positive HPV OncoTect E6, E7 mrna Test Positive Normal Biopsy CIN 3 E6, E7 inside nucleus Squamous Layer Para-Basal (non-dividing) Keratinocytes Transit Layer Cell Cell Nucleus APC Epithelial Basement Membrane APC=Antigen Presenting Cell Developed from: N. Muñoz et al. / Vaccine 24S3 (2006) The HPV virus invades the mucosa of the basal membrane of the cervix. From there the infected cell divides and spreads out in a lateral fashion. Some of the virus migrates to the suprabasal layers where viral genes are activated.
