Power3 Medical Products, Inc. Provides Progress Report – NuroPro® Clinical Validation Study of Serum Biomarkers for Alzheimer’s Disease
NuroPro®, the First Blood Serum Diagnostic Test to be Available for Alzheimer’s Disease, Demonstrates High Sensitivity and Specificity http://www.businesswire.com/portal/s...39&newsLang=en HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Power3 Medical Products, Inc. (OTCBB:PWRM), a leading proteomics company specializing in the development and commercialization of diagnostic tests for early detection of breast cancer and neurodegenerative diseases, is providing an interim status report of its international validation study of the company’s NuroPro® blood serum biomarker test for Alzheimer’s disease. Power3 is currently conducting a 300-patient clinical validation study of its NuroPro® blood serum test for Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease in collaboration with Dr. Marwan Sabbagh, the Director of Clinical Research at the Cleo Roberts Center of Clinical Research at the Sun Health Research Institute in Sun City, Arizona. “The preliminary results of the Power3’s study look very promising. Clinicians around the world look forward to adding a tool to diagnose and treat Alzheimer’s earlier and therefore give the best care to their patients,” says Dr. Sabbagh. To date, 92 Alzheimer and Control patient samples have been analyzed in Power3’s CLIA certified laboratory and have demonstrated high sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease. “This study confirms Power3’s panel of Neurodegenerative biomarkers’ ability to diagnose Alzheimer’s disease with superior sensitivity and specificity with results in the 95% range. Additionally, the current study validates Power3’s collection, storage, shipping, processing, and biostatistical analysis methods,” says Dr. Essam Sheta, the Director of Power3’s CLIA laboratory. Power3 expects to conclude the initial Alzheimer’s validation study in September 2008 and publish the validation study results soon after. READ article
