C2N’s Precivity™ Tests are Now Offered Through Mayo Clinic Laboratories
On Jun. 27, 2024, C2N Diagnostics (C2N), has entered into a non-exclusive agreement with Mayo Clinic Laboratories, for inclusion of C2N’s Precivity™ tests in Mayo Clinic Laboratories’ test offerings to its clients.
The Precivity tests are innovative 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 hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease, and help inform medical management and treatment decisions.
The Precivity tests are only available through a healthcare provider’s order. The PrecivityAD2™ and PrecivityAD® blood tests use highly sensitive and specialized laboratory technologies to identify and measure certain proteins that are found in the blood and that are known to be associated with presence of brain amyloid plaques.
The main test result is a multiple analyte-derived algorithm score that determines a patient’s likelihood category for the presence of brain amyloid plaques. Like other high-performance tests that evaluate for brain amyloid pathology in clinical patients (such as amyloid PET scan or cerebrospinal fluid testing), the Precivity blood tests by themselves do not diagnose Alzheimer’s disease. Healthcare providers interpret the test results along with other medical information.
All of C2N’s Precivity tests are performed under the ISO 13485:2016 standard and in the company’s CAP accredited, CLIA certified laboratory.
