    Original Article
    Journal of Pathology and Translational Medicine 2019; 53(6): 386-392.

    Clinical Utility of a Fully Automated Microsatellite Instability Test with Minimal Hands-on Time
    Miseon Lee1, Sung-Min Chun1,2, Chang Ohk Sung1,2, Sun Y. Kim3, Tae W. Kim3, Se Jin Jang1,2, Jihun Kim1,2

    The review of Idylla MSI test by several South Korean authors was quite favorable. See discussion below.

    The positive take away points were. Idylla is:
    1) Fast;
    2) Accurate;
    3) Sensitive;
    4) Requires very little technician sample prep time;
    5) Provides easily interpreted results; and
    6) Requires little room/facility preparation (clean rooms etc.)

    The only negatives were the following:

    1) Idylla is a destructive test procedure. Sample cannot be pulled out and retested by another method;
    2) The throughput is relatively low. Assuming an 8 unit device about 32 analyses can be completed per day. This may be a problem for very high volume testing centers.
    3) The consumable cost was higher for Idylla than Standard PCR.

    I may differ on negative point no. 3 since they do not state how costs were calculated. If reagents, clean space and technician time/salary plus the salary of a qualified genetic scientist to interpret results are included, I would think that Idylla is cheaper. Probably not a problem considering the other advantages listed. I included some of the discussion below:

    DISCUSSION
    In this study, the Idylla MSI assay demonstrated excellent diagnostic performance when we tested the fully automated kit with 115 CRC samples with rigorously confirmed MSI results. In addition, the test successfully detected MSI-H status in samples with very low tumor purity (down to 10%), although the tumor purity estimates were inevitably crude. Our findings suggest that the Idylla MSI assay could be used in the clinic to determine MSI status, at least for CRC samples, and that macro-dissection may not be required in most CRC cases. Since the Idylla MSI assay does not require DNA extraction and reagent loading steps, the hands-on time could be greatly reduced.
    The identification of MMR deficiency is important not only for the identification of the risk for Lynch syndrome but also for the appropriate treatment approach and prognosis for sporadic tumors [10]. MMR deficiency can be diagnosed by PCR fragment analysis, NGS, and MMR protein IHC test [8]. MMR IHC staining is used as a first-line screening method and is used as a good surrogate marker for MSI, but heterogeneity has previously been well described [10,11]. PCR fragment analysis has been widely used as a standard method and NGS-based MSI detection is now increasing, but both methods are time-consuming and labor-intensive. The Idylla MSI assay offers a fully automated workflow from direct FFPE tissue input to a simple final report (Supplementary Fig. S2) and achieved a short turnaround time (about 150 minutes) and minimal hands-on time (less than 2 minutes). When we simulated actual hands-on time in maximum throughput environment (8 samples/run for the Idylla MSI assay, 32 samples/run for the standard MSI PCR assay, and 24 samples/run for the NGS in Illumina NextSeq platform), the hands-on time per sample was 30 seconds for the Idylla MSI assay, 5 minutes for the standard MSI PCR test, and 120 minutes for the NGS. Thus, the Idylla MSI assay may significantly save time and manpower. The downside of the Idylla MSI assay, however, is that only one sample can be processed in each instrument unit at a time. Thus, to increase sample throughput, multiple instruments are required (up to 8 instruments per one console, according to the manufacturer). Requirements for multiple instruments and usage of one sophisticated cartridge per one sample may make this test to be more expensive than the standard PCR assay......

    ...In summary, the Idylla MSI assay is fast, accurate, and reliable, and thus might be clinically applicable. The fully automated workflow may offer a significant reduction in time and labor although the cost for consumables or cartridge is higher than that of the standard MSI PCR test. In addition, colonoscopic biopsy specimens in the case of initially metastatic disease may be easily processed because this test does not require a matched normal tissue sample.

    I think this is important since this assay was just released in the EU last year and BCART has discussed it as a growth driver. Also, tech articles such as this can help with traction in the large Asian markets.

    The January 28 tweet indicates the bridging study has been completed which demonstrates that the Idylla IVD results correlate well with the lab approved Septicyte test. This is certainly a critical step for FDA approval of the IVD.

    I don't see anything that would make me doubt the Oct 3, 2019 statement that Septicyte rapid on Idylla would receive EU Marking in the 1st quarter and FDA approval by Midyear.

    “Volgens de website van Euronext iw Novacyt helaas ook in oncologische diagnostica gespecialiseerd.”

    Hoe bedoel je: helaas ook? Novacyt kan niet in de schaduw staan van Biocartis als het gaat om haar oncologische testen: niet qua accuratesse en validiteit noch qua gebruiksgemak noch qua hoeveelheid domeinen.

    Het klopt dat Novacyt door de waanzin van de corona epidemie een ongelooflijke koersexplosie heeft doorgemaakt dankzij de ogenschijnlijke beloftes van haar kortdurende ‘corona’ test (2 uur) met RUO status. We weten niet hoe het gaat aflopen met Novacyt maar er zijn wel veel spelers en er is sprake van een ramp, en dus zijn er altijd meer opties en spelers nodig.

    Voor je beeldvorming voeg ik een lijst toe van spelers in de ‘corona-markt.’ Zie volgende kader:

    Here is the last Idylla discussion from GHDX before things went silent after the EXAS merger.

    Genomic Health's Second Quarter Was So Great It Got the Company Acquired
    Exact Sciences takes out the cancer-test maker for $2.8 billion.

    Aug 7, 2019 at 10:05AM

    Excerpt

    What management had to say
    CEO Kimberly Popovits talked about the benefits of the acquisition: "This combination provides significant and immediate cash value for our shareholders and with the stock component creates the opportunity to participate in the upside potential of the combined company. We have great respect for the Exact Sciences team, and we believe we have found a tremendous partner to advance our mission."

    Popovits also highlighted the company's partnership with Biocartis to run Genomic Health's tests on Biocartis' Idylla systems:

    It certainly opens up the global markets for us. With the announcement of the reimbursement decision in Germany, it's just a really incredible starting point to bring that platform to major markets in Western Europe, and we'll see how we can expand it from there. But also it could have implications for the future pipeline of the combination here.

    Thank you for all your messages about BCART. I always read them diagonally. As mentioned earlier, I only want to be active on this forum if there are any press releases from BCART. In other words: until 5 March.

    I make an exception for people who use gross untruths on this forum or for occasions where there has been an enormous influence on the course.

    Kind regards,

    Op 6 uur tijd nog geen 40.000 aandelen verhandeld. De koers wordt bepaalt door de shorters die de koers liefst zien dalen. Maar bijna iedereen houdt zijn aandelen stevig vast want bij positief nieuws, kunnen de shorters de stijging niet meer tegenhouden, nog 2 weken voor de cijfers.

    From time to time we have discussed the FDA approval process for CDx IVD assays.

    www.fda.gov/media/99790/download

    Given that the MSI assay is largely operator independent (i.e., does not require extensive training at each testing facility) and has already completed extensive validation analyses, I believe that the Idylla MSI assay is likely to have been eligible to have received some process exemptions (IDE). Furthermore, assuming that the BMS- Covance agreements correspond to close to the start of the FDA CDx process (i.e., almost a year ago), I believe it is reasonable to expect this approval this year. Hopefully, completing this process paves the way for subsequent assays.

    Dag Laup 4 is dit onderbouwd of is er voorlopig weinig belangstelling? Denk wel dat er iets op til is maar wat zullen we moeten afwachten.

    Ik heb alvast meer ingekocht, denk niet dat we hier nog lang zullen blijven hangen.

    Hallo lextamindose, een shorter kan een stijging voorkomen door desnoods eigen aandelen te verkopen en lager terug te kopen. Hun shortpositie is ongeveer 4% maar dat zal niet volstaan om bij goede resultaten een stijging tegen te houden. We hoeven zelfs niet te wachten op 5 maart, in deze laatste 2 weken voor de cijfers kunnen we al flink hoger gaan, succes!

    Na het sluiten van de beurs, is een groot deel van de verkopers verdwenen. De "laat" staat weer op 5,96 en de andere zijn weg, tot morgen en dan staat er weer een blok. Dat betekent dat de shorters de zaak controleren volgens mijn bescheiden mening. Het enige minpunt dat ik heb is het coronavirus, dat is voor geen enkel bedrijf een geschenk, maar ook dat zal een oplossing vinden.

    Ben met belangstelling het koersverloop van Galapagos aan het volgen.Zo zie je maar wat die shorters kunnen veroorzaken.Ze doen het wel in hun broek daar.Hopelijk goede resultaten en outlook voor Biocartis op 5/3. Kan dan ook veel teweeg brengen dat al die shorters hun kar moeten keren.

    A few months ago I raised a lot of questions about the convertible. I found this interview useful in answering my questions. I know it is 8 months old, but it still provides useful information. It also helps to frame the big picture while the S.P. lumbers along at a 5 handle (i.e., the approvals of CDx registrations will enable our big partners to co-market Idylla products).

    This Journal article appears to have provided a lot of the impetus for GHDX to seek out a quicker IVD solution for delivering OncoTypeDx breast cancer results. I predict a few years from now there will be a blockbuster study that demonstrates that Idylla OncotypeDx saves the healthcare system millions in unnecessary chemo and that it expedites appropriate treatment from 40-60 days to less than a week resulting in improved overall survival outcomes.
