Unanticipated Delays definition
Unanticipated Delays. The immunohistochemistry process and analyses developed by Ventana involve the use of several instruments and many processing steps and reagents, any of which may fail unexpectedly. The quality controls and assurances in place at Ventana have been designed to identify discrepancies and problems soon after occurrence to allow for a quick response and resolution without impeding productivity. However, there may be unanticipated delays to obtaining high quality data and in delivering data reports because of some unusually difficult problems. Possible scenarios that may cause a delay include, but are not limited to: • Problems with quality, consistency, stability, or supply of antigen retrieval agents from an outside vendor (i.e. ficin) or from Ventana (i.e. citrate, EDTA, proteinase K) • Problems with quality, consistency, stability, or supply of primary antibodies from outside vendor or from Ventana • Problems with quality, consistency, stability of secondary and detection reagents from outside vendors or Ventana • Instrument failure (autostainers, microtomes, automatic cover-slipper, imaging microscope, etc.) • Loss of trained personnel due to attrition or illness When Ventana experiences a problem that interferes with the generation of reproducible immunostaining and high quality data within the agreed upon timeline, Clovis will receive written notification detailing the issues, outlining the resolution steps, and updating the timeline. It stands to reason that if there is a failure that necessitates a repeated experimental run, additional sections will be needed from the affected specimens in order to complete the study. A tabulation of the additional sections required to complete the study will be quickly communicated to Clovis. Likewise, in the event that Clovis experiences delays in slide collection, or makes changes in that protocol that impacts Ventana’s responsibilities and planning, Ventana expects notification in order to update its resource commitments and timelines with possible re-negotiations if the anticipated impact is considered significant.
