Unmet Need
PCR testing has a high level of accuracy for diagnosing the presence of active infections in patients. Running these tests can be expensive and impractical to people who live far away from laboratories. Additionally, the turnover time to get results for PCR tests can take more than 24 hours, leaving the patient suspended and unable to treat their infections.
Proposed Solution
Addressing this issue, the ToDX product is an at home diagnostic platform that will perform tests with comparable accuracy to PCR results. The first clinical application of this at-home diagnostic platform will be applied to STI’s (sexually transmitted infections), including chlamydia, gonorrhea, and trichomoniasis. ToDX plans to widen the clinical applications to the respiratory infections, including diagnosis of papillomavirus strains and the diagnosis of upper respiratory virus strains.
