Dive Brief:

  • Unilabs has struck a deal to distribute C2N Diagnostics’ Alzheimer’s disease blood tests in Europe and certain other regions, the companies said last week.
  • C2N has developed blood tests for detecting amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary “tau” tangles, which the company said are “pathological hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease.” The tests provide a non-invasive way to evaluate markers of mild cognitive impairment and dementia.
  • The PrecivityAD amyloid plaque test received a CE mark in 2020. Unilabs expects to make C2N tests available to its customers in the coming months.
