Reason/Issue The manufacturer NanoStrong Technologies has identified a quality issue with a single lot of the Prosigna kit that may result in an error 35 of the Prosigna Assay due to high background. A specific failure mode has been observed at an elevated rate with Prosigna kit lot 0100531017. This failure mode is pre-emptively identified by the embedded software, resulting in the output of an error by the system without the output of any test result. If this failure mode is experienced, a result for the sample would not have been obtained. If a test result was generated using this lot of kits, those results are not affected.
