About us
C₂N Diagnostics’ vision is to bring Clarity Through Innovation™. It focuses its therapeutic discovery efforts around mechanism-based approaches to prevent or stop the progression of human neurological disorders. Diagnostic efforts revolve around bringing accurate, widely accessible, and cost-effective blood tests to the clinic for the betterment of patient care and brain health monitoring. Its lead commercial product, the PrecivityAD™ blood test, is a mass spectrometry-based test performed in C₂N’s CLIA-certified lab that measures in blood multiple analytes including Aβ42, Aβ40, and apolipoprotein E isoforms. While the test by itself cannot diagnose Alzheimer’s disease — which is a clinical diagnosis made by a health care provider — the test is an important new tool for physicians to aid in the evaluation process. PrecivityAD™, which can only be ordered through a health care provider, predicts brain amyloid plaques as determined by PET scan results and in 2019 it received a Breakthrough Device Designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The PrecivityAD™ blood test also has achieved the CE Mark from the European Union. For more information visit www.C2N.com.

C2N is excited to be part of the Pri-Med South conference from February 6-8 in Ft. Lauderdale. Organizers say it’s an opportunity for expert faculty to “provide the latest primary care updates and keynote addresses.” C2N will be at booth #316, where we’ll be sharing details about the Precivity™ tests, which are innovative new blood tests intended for use in patients 55 and older with signs or symptoms of mild cognitive impairment or dementia. These tests aid healthcare providers in the detection of amyloid plaques in the brain, a pathological hallmark of Alzheimer's disease, and inform medical management and treatment decisions. https://lnkd.in/ekdF2Ujb #PriMedSouth #bloodbiomarkers #AlzheimersDisease #medicalconference #dementia

Recently published research speaks to the need to find more accessible and less invasive ways to help healthcare providers make an Alzheimer’s disease diagnosis. The study, appearing in the journal Nature Medicine, reports that new cases of dementia in the United States are projected to double in the next three decades. The study also showed that the risk of developing dementia after age 55 is 42%, more than double the risk seen by older studies. After age 75, the lifetime risk increases to more than 50%, according to the study. C2N’s Precivity™ tests are innovative new blood tests intended for use in patients 55 and older with signs or symptoms of mild cognitive impairment or dementia. These tests aid healthcare providers in the detection of amyloid plaques in the brain, a pathological hallmark of Alzheimer's disease, and inform medical management and treatment decisions. The Precivity blood tests for assessment of brain amyloid pathology offer an accessible and less procedurally complex testing option for healthcare providers and patients compared to amyloid PET scan or CSF testing. https://lnkd.in/ggvW4tNg www.precivityAD.com #NatureMedicine #dementia #AlzheimersDisease #risks #aging #research #amyloidpathology

Study finds C2N’s PrecivityAD2™ Blood Test Improves Clinical Decision-Making in the Evaluation for Alzheimer’s Disease The peer-reviewed Diagnostics Journal published Clinical Utility of an Alzheimer’s Disease Blood Test Among Cognitively Impaired Patients: Results from the Quality Improvement PrecivityAD2 (QUIP II) Clinician Survey Study. Study researchers have determined that use of PrecivityAD2 blood test, which determines presence or absence of amyloid plaques in the brain, increased their ability to make Alzheimer’s disease (AD) probability judgments on their patients. This change in clinician-reported probability of AD is also associated with meaningful improvements in downstream clinical care, including changes in plans for AD medications as well as additional brain amyloid testing. https://lnkd.in/ep3hGNTb #Diagnostics #medicaljournal #Alzheimersdisease #bloodtest #dementia #bloodbiomarker #precisionmedicine #Alzheimers #brainamyloid

C2N Diagnostics is proud to announce that the Toronto Memory Program (TMP) is the first clinic in Canada to offer the PrecivityAD2™ blood test that healthcare providers use to help diagnose Alzheimer’s disease. This blood test allows healthcare providers to determine the presence or absence of amyloid pathology, a known hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease, through a simple, non-invasive approach. Other Canadian clinics are expected to soon join TMP in making the test available. Dr. Sharon Cohen, Behavioural Neurologist and Medical Director of TMP, says, “For far too long, early and accurate diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease has been inaccessible to most Canadians due to reliance on expensive PET scans or lumbar punctures. This situation is untenable as emerging Alzheimer’s treatments require early diagnosis and biological confirmation. We are excited to offer our patients the option of C2N’s PrecivityAD2 as this easily accessible and highly accurate blood test helps us to determine whether Alzheimer’s disease is present in the brain, and to treat accordingly.” https://lnkd.in/e444yzEN #Canada #Toronto #Alzheimersdisease #bloodtest #dementia #bloodbiomarker #precisionmedicine #Alzheimers
