1. Until your Instrument is serviced, please move forward with the option that applies to your situation:
o In case you have another Idylla Instrument available that is not affected, use that
Instrument to run the Idylla MSI Test and discontinue running the Idylla MSI Test on the
listed Instrument(s).
o No new Idylla MSI testing should be performed using the affected Idylla Instruments.
o For results already obtained using an affected Idylla Instrument, the following apply:
o MSS results are VALID and may be reported.
o MSI-H (Microsatellite Instability High) results with six or seven positive identified
biomarkers (as depicted in the result report) are VALID and may be reported.
o MSI-H results other than those with six or seven positive identified biomarkers are
INVALID and should NOT be reported or used to manage patient health. Patient samples with these results should be re-tested on an Idylla Instrument that is NOT affected.
