Insights
FDA clearance expands OraSure’s at-home diagnostics reach with Roche platforms.
OraSure Technologies obtained U.S. FDA clearance for its Colli-Pee™•Dx Urine Collection Kit to be used with multiple Roche molecular tests for sexually transmitted infections on cobas® 5800, 6800, and 8800 systems. This ties an OraSure collection device directly into widely used lab instruments.
The clearance covers at-home self-collection of first-void urine for both male and female patients, which can lower testing barriers and support remote care models. Because the kit is specific to Roche assays and platforms, adoption will depend on how clinical laboratories and healthcare providers integrate this workflow.
Future company disclosures may clarify commercial rollout, uptake across cobas® 5800/6800/8800 installed bases, and whether additional assays or platforms are added. These details will shape how meaningful the FDA-cleared indication becomes within OraSure’s diagnostics portfolio.
