Matritech Says Colon Cancer Test Detects All Cancer Cases
Dow Jones Newswires
NEWTON, Mass. -- Matritech Inc. (NMPS) said its technique for detecting colon cancer or pre-cancer polyps was effective in all 17 patients diagnosed with colon cancer, eight patients with polyps and eight patients with benign conditions, including diverticulitis.
In a press release Monday, the company said its mass spectometry technique measures the elevation of specific proteins in the blood.
Matritech's similar test for bladder cancer is approved for marketing in the U.S., China, Europe and Japan. The company also developed breast cancer and prostate cancer tests using the same technique.
