Standardization of CD30 immunohistochemistry staining among three automated immunostaining platforms.

ABSTRACT: The identification of CD30 expression by immunohistochemistry is essential for the treatment of lymphomas using an antibody-drug conjugate targeting CD30. However, no standardized protocol for CD30 staining has been available. In this study, we compared three common automated immunostaining platforms {Bond III (B III), Dako Omnis (DO) and Ventana BenchMark ULTRA (VBMU)}. A primary antibody for CD30, the Ber-H2 clone, was diluted 50- to 400-fold for B III and DO, and ready-to-use antibody was used for VBMU. An enhancement step using a linker was introduced in all protocols. First, several candidate dilutions were selected for each platform by staining six cases. These candidate conditions were then confirmed with 60 cases of various types of peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs). The concorda
