Overview
The CK-5/6 Immunohistochemistry Test detects basal cytokeratin expression in tumor tissue, essential for classifying triple-negative and basal-like breast cancers. يكشف اختبار CK-5/6 عن تعبير السيتوكيراتين القاعدي، وهو أساسي لتصنيف سرطانات الثدي الثلاثية السلبية والشبيهة بالقاعدية. This high-specificity IHC assay delivers actionable subtyping within 5–7 days.
| Feature | Our CK-5/6 IHC Test | Closest Alternative (Generic IHC) |
|---|---|---|
| Diagnostic Precision | 99.9% sensitivity for basal keratin 5/6 | May lack CK-5/6 monoclonal antibody specificity |
| Methodology | Immunohistochemistry (IHC) with validated anti-CK5/6 clones | General IHC without dedicated basal marker panel |
| Turnaround Speed | FFPE block: 5 days; large complex tissue: 7 days | Often >10 days due to send-out workflows |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocol
Dr. PRABHAKAR REDDY (DHA License: 61713011): “As a clinical oncologist, I rely on CK-5/6 IHC to accurately subtype breast malignancies and guide targeted therapy. This result must always be interpreted in conjunction with full histopathology and clinical imaging—never as a standalone marker. I encourage you to discuss your report with your managing oncologist for personalised treatment decisions.”
Medication Warning: Do not discontinue prescribed medication without consulting your doctor. Changing treatment based solely on test results can be life-threatening.
Safety & Exclusion Criteria
- Do not undergo this test if you have an active, untreated bleeding disorder at the biopsy site.
- ER Red Flags: seek immediate medical attention if you experience excessive bleeding, fever, or signs of infection after biopsy collection.
- This is not validated for cytology specimens; only FFPE blocks or freshly fixed tissue are accepted.
- Minors require a signed guardian consent as per UAE CDS Law 2026 and parental presence during sample collection.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
س: ما هي استخدامات تحليل CK-5/6 ولماذا هو مهم لسرطان الثدي؟
A 15-word direct answer: CK-5/6 identifies basal-like breast cancers, refining prognosis and predicting chemotherapy response in aggressive tumours. This IHC stain is a cornerstone for triple-negative breast cancer subtyping and helps differentiate basal-like carcinomas from other epithelial malignancies. Your oncologist will use this data alongside hormone receptor status to design a tailored treatment regimen.
Q: How should I prepare for a CK-5/6 tissue biopsy, and what does the process involve?
A 15-word direct answer: Submit tumor tissue in 10% formal-saline or a paraffin block with histopathology report. A surgeon or interventional radiologist will obtain the biopsy; then the sample is fixed and transported at room temperature via our certified cold-chain logistics. You must provide a copy of the prior histopathology report, exact biopsy site, and full clinical history to ensure accurate correlation.
س: كم من الوقت يستغرق الحصول على النتائج وهل هي دقيقة؟
A 15-word direct answer: Results are delivered within 5 days for standard blocks, backed by 99.9% diagnostic sensitivity. Our ISO 9001:2015 certified laboratory uses validated anti-CK5/6 monoclonal antibodies and digital pathology review for maximum accuracy.
