EDX Medical is a growing digital diagnostics business, specialised in providing diagnostic tests for clinical use which reveal critical information to help healthcare professionals and their patients improve clinical decision-making and achieve better outcomes. In order to compete successfully in the clinical diagnostics sector, EDX Medical has established core competencies in the identification, development and validation of tests and associated secure data analytical reporting to imminent new UK and European regulatory standards. The board believes that these key skills make EDX Medical the provider of choice for clients and a strong marketing and distribution partner for collaborators.
EDX Medical provides healthcare professionals, providers and payors with access to a portfolio of proprietary diagnostic tests across both 'Laboratory Assays' and 'Point of Care' testing - two major segments of the growing global clinical diagnostics market, addressing three disease areas of great global health and economic impact - cancer, cardiovascular and infectious diseases. Both product lines are considered to be capable of addressing large global public and private sector markets for improved healthcare testing and secure digital reporting.
The Laboratory Assay portfolio includes market-ready advanced cancer tests from world-leading partners under exclusive distribution arrangements contributing initial revenues, alongside a growing number of products developed by EDX Medical in partnership with Thermo Fisher, with whom EDX Medical has a strategic collaboration. EDX Medical is establishing initial revenues and product validation in the UK. It is intended that optimised EDX Medical products will then be made into kits, validated and submitted for CE- IVDR regulatory approval, for sale to laboratories in the public and private healthcare sector across Europe, which the Directors believe will create a highly scaleable business model.
The 'Point of Care' test range is based on the patent-pending multiplex test platform acquired with Hutano Diagnostics Ltd, which provides highly sensitive and quantitative data for multiple key biomarkers in a handheld 20-minute test device, with data reporting via mobile phone. Initial applications currently in validation include PoC tests for sepsis and prostate cancer.
· Specialist: Focussed on Areas of Significant Global Impact: cancer, cardiovascular and infectious diseases,
· Building a Portfolio of Unique and Clinically Validated Assays: 'best in class' tests for genetic risk, early disease detection and characterisation.
· Early Revenues and Market Access via Distribution Partnerships: exclusive partnerships with Caris Life Sciences and with Curesponse Ltd.
· Strong Pipeline via Collaboration with Thermo Fisher proprietary assays addressing global needs co-developed based on in-licensed intellectual property from Oxford and Cambridge Universities and others.
· Pioneering Multiplex 'Point of Care' Test Platform, Quantitative data on multiple biomarkers with digital reporting via mobile phone for sepsis and prostate cancers in validation.
· Commercially Scalable Clear commercial growth strategy minimises technical and commercial risks, with potential for European expansion in the clinical diagnostics market.
