Advisory Committee Statement
Approval for the THxID®-BRAF kit. It is an In Vitro Diagnostic device intended for the qualitative detection of the BRAF V600E and V600K mutations in DNA samples extracted from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) human melanoma tissue. The THxID®-BRAF kit is a real-time PCR test on the ABI 7500 Fast Dx system and is intended to be used as an aid in selecting melanoma patients whose tumors carry: the BRAF V600E or V600K mutation for treatment with encorafenib [Braftovi] in combination with binimetinib [Mektovi], the BRAF V600E mutation for treatment with dabrafenib [Tafinlar®], the BRAF V600E or V600K mutation for treatment with trametinib [Mekinist®].
