Fujirebio Holding is now doubling down on developing blood tests to detect Alzheimer’s against which blockbuster therapy is expected soon.
The tiny Tokyo-based diagnostics firm, a unit of H.U. Group Holdings, which has a market value of $1.2 billion, developed the first US-approved spinal fluid test for Alzheimer’s.
According to Goki Ishikawa, the CEO of Fujirebio, the firm is boosting its lineup of reagents used to detect Alzheimer’s biomarkers in blood tests. It aims to file these tests for approval in the US as early as 2023.
Ishikawa said that the lineups offered by industry leaders are still limited, so they are rushing to create a solid lineup of tests.
