Immunovia completes analytical validation of its next-generation pancreatic cancer test
Key highlights of the analytical validation include,
The analytical validation was conducted using an automated ELISA analyzer, which significantly enhances both performance and throughput compared to Immunovia's prior IMMray platform as well as standard manual ELISA tests.
"We are happy to announce that our analytical validation results confirm the strong performance of our next-generation test. This achievement validates the quality of our analytical method and marks an important milestone to provide a reliable, convenient test that could ultimately improve patient outcomes by enabling early detection of pancreatic cancer. We are excited to be moving to the next phase, clinical validation," says Lisa Ford , Ph.D., Lab Director at Immunovia.
Following the successful completion of the analytical validation, Immunovia has initiated a large-scale clinical validation study to assess the accuracy of its next-generation test in detecting stage 1 and 2 pancreatic cancer. This clinical validation is expected to be completed by December 2024 . The results will provide crucial insights into the test's clinical performance, including its sensitivity and specificity.
