DiagnoCure To Launch Previstage GCC Colorectal Cancer Staging Test In UK

PBR Staff Writer Published 05 October 2009

A key step in reaching out to the European market

DiagnoCure has signed an exclusive agreement with Lab21 for the promotion, marketing and selling of its Previstage GCC Colorectal Cancer Staging Test in the UK and Ireland.

Reportedly, Lab21 will offer the Previstage GCC test as part of its oncology testing services, and patient samples will be processed in DiagnoCure's US clinical laboratory. The terms of the agreement were not disclosed.

John Schafer, president and CEO of DiagnoCure, said: "This new partnership is a key initial step in reaching out to the European market. Lab21 is a provider of state-of-the-art diagnostics and customer service. This new avenue will support the global growth for our Previstage GCC Colorectal Cancer Staging Test,"

According to DiagnoCure, each year, 36,400 people are diagnosed with colorectal cancer in the UK. Of that number, about 9,600 will be considered free of metastases (stage I or II) following the surgery and may benefit from the more accurate staging offered by Previstage(TM) GCC.
