PDL-1 22C3 Dako near me in Ranchi







The PDL-1 22C3 Dako test is an advanced diagnostic test used to measure the expression of the PD-L1 protein on tumor cells. It helps determine whether a patient may respond well to immunotherapy drugs such as pembrolizumab (Keytruda). This immunohistochemistry (IHC)–based test uses the Dako 22C3 pharmDx assay, an FDA-approved companion diagnostic, to detect and quantify PD-L1 levels in tumor tissue. Results guide doctors in personalizing cancer treatment plans, selecting patients likely to benefit from PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors, and improving clinical outcomes. This test is widely available with Tata 1mg labs at an affordable price in Ranchi.








What does PDL-1 22C3 Dako measure?
The PDL-1 22C3 Dako test measures the level of PD-L1 protein expression on tumor cells using IHC with the Dako 22C3 antibody clone. The results are reported as a Tumor Proportion Score (TPS), which represents the percentage of tumor cells showing PD-L1 staining. The score helps doctors understand whether a patient is likely to respond to immunotherapy medicines such as pembrolizumab (Keytruda) and plan the most suitable treatment approach.
