Move increases CLIA lab testing capacity for Esopredict and pipeline technologies
BALTIMORE, Feb. 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Previse, a company focused on improving health for patients with gastrointestinal diseases, today announced that it has relocated its headquarters and opened a new state-of-the-art CLIA high complexity laboratory in Baltimore, MD to meet demands for the company's first clinically available test, Esopredict.
Esopredict, the first and only commercially available test that assesses DNA methylation levels to risk stratify patients with esophageal pre-cancer, analyzes epigenetic biomarkers to provide GI physicians and their patients personalized predictive data to guide patient treatments and endoscopic surveillance.
The expansion of Previse's CLIA lab increases its testing capacity to serve an additional 10,000 patients annually, which is a significant stride towards improving access to precise and expeditious diagnostic services. Daniel Lunz, Co-founder and CEO, commented on the growth, "Our new headquarters and the expanded lab reflect our unwavering commitment to enhancing the value provided to physicians and patients, which is at the heart of our innovation-driven ethos."
The move will also expand the research capabilities of Previse, as the company develops additional innovative technologies including minimally invasive tests for upper GI disease detection and monitoring and to further service ongoing research partnerships.
