Mainz Biomed has announced a strategic collaboration with Bioclinica to support the commercialisation of its ColoAlert test in Romania.
ColoAlert is a user-friendly at-home detection test for colorectal cancer (CRC).
By analysing tumour DNA, this non-invasive test provides better early detection of tumours compared to faecal occult blood tests.
The test, which is based on polymerase chain reaction technology, enables an earlier diagnosis and can identify more colorectal cancer cases than other stool tests.
ColoAlert is expected to benefit more than six million people aged between 50 and 74 years in Romania, a country with one of the highest CRC incidence rates in Europe.
Mainz Biomed chief commercial officer Darin Leigh said: “In executing our commercial strategy, we remain steadfast in aligning ourselves with laboratories that share our unwavering dedication to introducing cutting-edge diagnostic tests capable of making a profound impact on the treatment and prevention of critical diseases like CRC.
