MDNA Life Sciences Mitomic Prostate Test

MDNA Life Sciences has launched the Mitomic Prostate Test Real-Time PCR Kit for research use only in Europe. The liquid biopsy test is designed for the early detection of prostate cancer in advance of biopsy, is independent of PSA and age, and is available for licensee laboratories to conduct in-house validation studies and controlled testing. The assay targets the 3.4-kilobase mitochondrial DNA deletion and is designed for use on real-time PCR platforms. Each kit contains all necessary reagents to process up to 21 patient samples, MDNA said. The company noted that a CE-IVD version of the kit will be available in July.
