UK Company Championing Near-Patient Testing for Therapeutic Differentiation

YORK, U.K. - Aug. 6, 2019 - PRLog -- Analysts say that by 2020 $25 billion of $100 billion in biologics sales will be in this area (KPMG 2015). So, pharmaceutical companies will need to strategically plan to reinforce therapeutic differentiation and avoid missing any significant market opportunities. But how can they do this?

The use of near-patient test and mHealth rapid diagnostic technology is a solution for aiding therapeutic differentiation: intuitive in-clinic, home or over-the-counter (OTC) drug activity monitoring methods for therapy guidance being the main differentiators.

As an experienced contract manufacturing organisation (CMO), Abingdon Health is helping global pharmaceutical partners cement their therapeutic market ambitions through the use of near-patient lateral flow immunoassays.

These technologies offer a variety of testing and monitoring solutions owing to their flexibility in being able to offer qualitative, semi-quantitative or quantitative results and detect different markers in a variety of sample types.

Greater Therapeutic Up-Take Owing To Intuitive Drug Marker Monitoring

A big concern for clinicians and patients alike is slow results delivery and any subsequent delay in drug therapy guidance owing to labour intensive laboratory monitoring methods.

The competitive advantage and growth opportunities for the pharmaceutical industry lie in greater uptake in a therapeutic, or a biosimilar for that matter, owing to the quick and intuitive way in which a drug can be monitored.

Policymakers are more likely to choose the use of approved drugs if the monitoring methods aids the concerns of busy and financially-stretched primary care services, at the same time as addressing patient anxiety.
