SIEMENS HAS REVIEWED THE DATA PROVIDED. THE CUSTOMER BULLETIN (NEW LOT OF LITE REAGENT ANTIBODY FOR THE CARCINOEMBRYONIC ANTIGEN (CEA) ASSAY, 11419805, REV. A) SENT OUT TO CUSTOMERS DID SHOW A POSITIVE BIAS WHEN MOVING TO THE NEW ANTIBODY POOL. THE QC DATA PROVIDED WITH BOTH REAGENT LOTS (040185 AND 040187) MIGHT BE OUTSIDE OF PEER RANGES BUT IS STILL WITHIN PACKAGE INSERT RANGES. NOT ALL OF THE CUSTOMERS HAVE MOVED TO THE NEW ANTIBODY POOL AS OF YET AND THIS IS MOST LIKELY REFLECTED IN THE PEER DATA AS THE CUSTOMERS REPORTING QC ON THE NEW ANTIBODY POOL ARE NOT SEPARATED OUT. THE SRS DATA WAS REVIEWED AND IT DOES SHOW A SIMILAR SHIFT IN THE QC. SIEMENS IS RECOMMENDING THAT THE TARGETS FOR THIS LOT OF CONTROL BE UPDATED. WE ARE RECOMMENDING THE FOLLOWING: CUSTOMER DATA AND BIORAD PEER DATA FOR THE ADVIA CENTAUR CEA ASSAY INDICATES THE TARGET FOR THE BIO-RAD LIQUICHEK TUMOR MARKER CONTROL LOT 23950 ALL LEVELS TARGET SHOULD BE UPDATED TO THE FOLLOWING: 23951 FROM 2.43 NG/ML TO 2.90 NG/ML 23952 FROM 22.4 NG/ML TO 25.2 NG/ML 23953 FROM 70.0 NG/ML TO 77.3 NG/ML SIEMENS HEALTHCARE DIAGNOSTICS IS AWAITING FURTHER INFORMATION FROM THE CUSTOMER.

MEASUREMENTS OF CEA SHOULD ALWAYS BE USED IN CONJUNCTION WITH OTHER DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES, INCLUDING INFORMATION FROM THE PATIENT'S CLINICAL EVALUATION.
