The APIS Breast Cancer Subtyping Kit is a highly reproducible, RT-qPCR-based kit for detecting mRNA expression of standard breast cancer biomarkers (HER2, ER, PR, Ki67) and novel proliferative biomarkers from core-needle biopsy (CNB) or resected formalin-fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) breast tumour tissue. Receptor tyrosine-protein kinase erbB-2 (HER2), oestrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and marker of proliferation (Ki67) biomarkers play a key role in breast cancer.
The kit also includes a novel four-gene proliferative signature that comprises four markers (MKI67, CCNA2, KIF23, and PCNA) associated with proliferation. These markers are expressed throughout all cell cycle stages, providing a more precise representation of tumour proliferation.
The APIS Breast Cancer Subtyping Kitt is available as a Research Use Only (RUO) product. Not applicable for use in diagnostic procedures.
This product is manufactured in United Kingdom by APIS Assay Technologies.
