View all Current opportunities
Pacific Edge is a biomedical company specializing in the
discovery and commercialization of diagnostic and prognostic
technology for cancer.
Products in development and in clinical trials are accurate and
simple to use genomic and proteomic tools for the earlier
detection, improved characterization and better management of
gastric, bladder, colorectal, and endometrial cancers and
melanoma.
The company has recently completed and released its first
product for the detection of bladder cancer. Cxbladder is a
non-invasive, accurate test that enables the early detection of
bladder cancer from a small volume of urine, providing general
practitioners and urologists with a quick, cost effective and
accurate measure of the presence of the cancer. Cxbladder provides
urologists with the opportunity to reduce their reliance on the
need for invasive tests such as cystoscopy.
Pacific Edge's potential product benefits are compelling to
patients and clinicians as they seek to address a number of
important shortcomings in current disease detection and management,
including the need for earlier detection, better characterization,
lower cost, non-invasive technology, and greater accuracy.
The company is commercializing its products from its new
diagnostic laboratory in New Zealand and plans further
commercialization in the US and Europe as a centralized diagnostic
service through its own facilities or as a turn-key solution
licensed to selected partners.
Pacific Edge has plans for further studies in key markets to
engage leading medical and urological opinion leaders who will be
vital to success in new markets.
