Reason/Issue There have been unusually high numbers of positive results with EliA SmDP well lots, which are not due to anti-Sm antibodies.
All equivocal and positive patient sample results measured with lots 0018 and 0019 are potentially incorrect and are thus considered to be invalid.
A false positive result could lead to unnecessary treatment/procedures.
There is no indication that negative results generated with EliA SmDP well lots 0018 and 0019 are affected.
