Skyline Dx: Merlin Assay

Skyline Dx launched the Merlin Assay for melanoma as a laboratory-developed test available through its CLIA/CAP facility in San Diego. According to the Rotterdam, Netherlands-based company, a recently published study found the test could reduce up to 42 percent of surgical interventions in patients diagnosed with melanoma. The assay was developed as a result of the Falcon R&D Program, a partnership between clinicians and academia to develop tools for optimizing the clinical pathway of melanoma patients.
