INNOVANCE D-Dimer 2.0 assay underwent an extensive analytical verification and prospective clinical validation program designed to demonstrate reproducible performance under the conditions laboratories encounter every day.

Performance demonstrated under routine testing conditions

Performance was evaluated across multiple reagent lots, analyzer systems, instruments, laboratories, and countries, with studies spanning the measuring range up to 80 mg/L FEU to support reproducible performance in routine laboratory practice.

Robustness tested under challenging conditions

Precision was evaluated according to CLSI EP05-A3, while interference testing was conducted according to CLSI EP07 and included more than 50 endogenous and therapeutically relevant endogenous and exogenous substances to assess assay robustness under routine testing conditions.

Extensive validation designed to reflect clinical practice

The clinical cutoff was separately derived and validated following CLSI H59-A, with more than 2,500 consecutive outpatients across 22 clinical sites and three-month follow-up providing a representative evidence base for DVT/PE exclusion.

Strong clinical performance for DVT/PE exclusion

At the validated cutoff of 0.5 mg/L FEU, the assay demonstrated an NPV of 99.8% for PE and 99.6% for DVT, with specificity of 57.3% and 48.0%, respectively.
