PD-L1 Quantitative by IHC

CPT 88360
Synonyms
  • PD-L1 Non-specific

Test Details

Methodology

Immunohistochemistry

Result Turnaround Time

1 - 2 days

Turnaround time is defined as the usual number of days from the date of pickup of a specimen for testing to when the result is released to the ordering provider. In some cases, additional time should be allowed for additional confirmatory or additional reflex tests. Testing schedules may vary.

Use

PD-L1 overexpression is associated with adverse prognosis in solid tumors, though specific prognosis varies among different tumor types. The utility of this PD-L1 (22C3) assay in predicting the response to therapy has not been determined for all tumor types, and standardized scoring methods do not exist for all tumor types.
