* Context.--An immunohistochemistry (IHC) assay developed to detect lymphocyte-activation gene 3 (LAG-3), a novel immune checkpoint inhibitor target, has demonstrated high analytic precision and interlaboratory reproducibility using a Leica staining platform, but it has not been investigated on other IHC staining platforms. Objective.--To evaluate the performance of LAG-3 IHC assays using the 17B4 antibody clone across widely used IHC staining platforms: Agilent/Dako Autostainer Link 48 and VENTANA BenchMark ULTRA compared to Leica BOND-RX (BOND-RX). Design.--Eighty formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded melanoma tissue blocks were cut into consecutive sections and evaluated using staining platform--specific IHC assays with the 17B4 antibody clone. Duplicate testing was performed on the BOND-RX platform to assess intraplatform agreement. LAG-3 expression using a numeric score was evaluated by a pathologist and with a digital scoring algorithm. LAG-3 positivity was determined from manual scores using a 1% or greater cutoff. Results.--LAG-3 IHC staining patterns and intensities were visually similar across all 3 staining platforms. Spearman and Pearson correlations were 0.75 or greater for interplatform and BOND-RX intraplatform concordance when LAG-3 expression was evaluated with a numeric score determined by a pathologist. Correlation increased with a numeric score determined with a digital scoring algorithm (Spearman and Pearson correlations ≥0.88 for all comparisons). Overall percentage agreement was 77.5% or greater for interplatform and BOND-RX intraplatform comparisons when LAG-3 positivity was determined using a 1% or greater cutoff. Conclusions.--Data presented here demonstrate that LAG-3 expression can be robustly and reproducibly assessed across 3 major commercial IHC staining platforms using the 17B4 antibody clone.
