Quanterix is a company that is digitizing biomarker analysis with the goal of advancing the science of precision health. The company’s ultra-sensitive detection solution, Simoa, has the potential to change the way in which healthcare is provided today by giving researchers the ability to closely examine the role of biomarkers in the continuum of  health to disease. Quanterix’ technology is designed to enable much earlier disease detection, better prognosis and precise treatment methods to improve the quality of life and longevity of the population for generations to come. The technology is currently being used for research applications in several therapeutic areas, including oncology, neurology, cardiology, inflammation and infectious disease. The company was established in 2007 and is located in Billerica, Massachusetts.

The inaccessibility of inexpensive and noninvasive Alzheimer’s diagnostics has left 50-70% of symptomatic AD patients without a correct and timely diagnosis, impacting quality of life, medical autonomy, and general wellbeing.

Currently, clinicians diagnose AD using a combination of symptom presentation, brain imaging, and the detection of CSF biomarkers for AD. Despite their effectiveness, they are often invasive and costly, making them unsuitable for most primary and secondary care settings, but blood-based biomarkers may offer a new path. There is substantial evidence supporting the utility of blood biomarkers for AD diagnosis, particularly diagnosing early-stage AD, prior to cognitive symptom presentation. https://bit.ly/3TcfGT6

Clinicians use various biomarkers to diagnose, track, and treat disease, and new biomarkers or improving the sensitivity of existing biomarkers could fulfill unmet clinical needs and improve patient outcomes. Blood-based markers like NfL, p-Tau 181, p-Tau 217, and GFAP are already playing a critical role in advancing patient care for disorders like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. https://bit.ly/3RilsA9
