Clinicians can use the PD-L1 IHC 22C3 pharmDx assay to help identify head and neck squamous cell carcinoma patients for treatment with Merck's Keytruda in Europe.

Promega's microsatellite instability technology will be used to develop an on-label, solid tumor companion diagnostic for pembrolizumab.

The cancer immunotherapy regimen and companion diagnostic test will be available in Europe for patients with triple-negative breast cancer who express PD-L1. 

As part of the agreement, Kindstar will use InCellDx's single-cell immuno-oncology and oncology diagnostic products in China, including Hong Kong and Macao.
