Atezolizumab in combination with nab-paclitaxel has been introduced for the treatment of locally advanced or recurrent triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). Patient selection relies on the use of immunohistochemistry using a specific monoclonal PD-L1 antibody (clone SP142) in a tightly controlled companion diagnostic test (CDx) with a defined interpretative algorithm. Currently there are no standardized recommendations for selecting the optimal tissue to be tested and there is limited data to support decision making, raising the possibility that tissue selection may bias test results.

Alpha-methylacyl-coenzyme A-racemase (AMACR), also known as p504s, is overexpressed in prostatic adenocarcinoma and is frequently used in combination with basal cell markers to aid in diagnosing difficult prostate adenocarcinoma cases. In this retrospective method comparison study, we examined the sensitivity and specificity of the ready-to-use anti-p504s (SP116) Rabbit Monoclonal Primary Antibody compared to the monoclonal rabbit anti-human AMACR clone 13H4 in prostatic adenocarcinoma samples. De-identified prostatic adenocarcinoma tissue samples were stained with either the SP116 or 13H4 antibody clone in combination with the VENTANA Basal Cell Cocktail (34βE12+p63) and scored as positive or negative for prostatic adenocarcinoma.
