Labcorp will offer the BD Onclarity HPV Assay at its facilities by the end of this year through a new partnership with Waters Corporation.
The BD Onclarity HPV Assay is compatible with self-collected specimens and allows for extended genotyping of high-risk HPV types 16, 18, 31, 45, 51, and 52.
The goal of this action is to make cervical cancer screening more accessible. The companies hope to ensure more women receive timely HPV testing by making the assay available through Labcorp’s clinician programs, Gaps in Care health plan programs, and consumer channels.
