Urteste Expands Development of Innovative Diagnostic Projects
A proof-of-concept study of 322 participants confirmed the high sensitivity (95.6%) and specificity (95.5%) of the PANURI test. Urteste is currently participating in the FDA Q-Submission program and is seeking an experienced CRO to support a clinical trial in the US.
In addition, Urteste will start the development of a breast cancer diagnostic test project called NASTRO. The Polish Agency for Enterprise Development has just granted the company an approximately $3 million non-refundable grant, which will support clinical trials and move the project significantly closer to the commercialization stage.
Breast cancer is the second most common cancer in the world. According to the “Global Cancer Statistics 2022” report, in 2022 there were more than 2.3 million new cases of breast cancer worldwide and nearly 0.7 million deaths due to these cancers.
In the MULTI-CANCER project, Urteste is developing a diverse portfolio of tests. Urteste now has a pipeline of 12 prototype diagnostic tests for the following cancers: pancreatic, brain, breast, stomach, bile ducts, ovary, endometrial, kidney, colorectal, lung, liver, and prostate, which collectively account for nearly 70% of all cancer deaths worldwide.
Urteste holds Polish patents and international patent applications for its technology. Urteste's patent strategy is to seek patent protection in countries that collectively generate around 90% of global GDP.
The Urteste Management Board will attend MEDICA in Düsseldorf (Germany), 11-14 November.
