Is there a good general term for "the thing that is being reviewed"?
- The activity is reviewing
- The product is a review
- The person conducting doing it is the reviewer
- The object being reviewed is ?
The closest I've come up with is specimen, but that is more the subject of scientific scrutiny. I could use a more general term like subject but I would have to prefix it to make the context clear (e.g. review subject).

As I read the question, really the subject line, the noun subject came immediately to mind. If you need to clarify, and I am not sure you would, the subject of our review, or words to that effect, ought to do it.
