About AssureMDx^™
AssureMDx is a proprietary, non-invasive urine-based DNA test addressing critical gaps in hematuria evaluation and early bladder cancer detection. With its successful launch on May 3, 2024, AssureMDx addresses critical gaps in bladder cancer detection through its industry-leading accuracy. Hematuria impacts 17 million U.S. adults annually, yet only 12% receive urological evaluation, leading to 20,000 missed bladder cancer diagnoses each year. Backed by 22 peer-reviewed studies involving over 6,000 patients, AssureMDx delivers industry-leading accuracy with a 0.96 AUC, 99% Negative Predictive Value (NPV), and 96% Sensitivity for the presence of bladder cancer. Traditional methods like cytology and cystoscopy suffer from limited sensitivity, while overuse of CT scans increases radiation exposure and the risk of secondary cancers. AssureMDx provides a precise solution, enabling timely urology referrals for high-risk patients and sparing low-risk patients from unnecessary invasive procedures and CT scans. Additionally, the test supports non-invasive monitoring for cancer recurrence, improving long-term outcomes. By reducing unnecessary procedures and improving healthcare efficiency, AssureMDx not only enhances patient outcomes but also delivers significant cost savings to healthcare systems. This innovative diagnostic tool exemplifies Vesica Health's mission to transform bladder cancer care through early detection, precision diagnostics, and improved patient outcomes.
