What is a confirm MDX test?

The ConfirmMDX test is performed on tissue samples taken during a prior biopsy. The test examines the sample's DNA to look for markers that indicate more aggressive cancer . No additional patient procedures are required to perform this test.

What does MDX Health do?

Mdxhealth is a commercial-stage precision diagnostics company that provides actionable molecular diagnostic information to personalize the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer and other urologic diseases . The Company's tests are based on proprietary genetic, epigenetic and other complex molecular technologies.

How accurate is the confirm MDX test?

The ConfirmMDx test has an AUC of . 76, meaning it has a good predictive ability to predict if there is cancer in an area based on the hypermethylated tissue. The 95% confidence interval of . 67-.

How accurate is the select MDX test?

SelectMDx is a simple urine biomarker test that has an accuracy of 98% for detecting significant (Gleason 3+4 and higher) prostate cancers, outperforming other urine markers such as PCA3.

What does MDX stand for in medical?

Molecular diagnostics (MDx) is the rapidly developing area of laboratory medicine that investigates human, viral and microbial genomes and the products they encode.

How is a select MDX test performed?

It's Non-Invasive and Convenient All you need to do is provide a urine specimen during a visit to your urologist's office . The specimen will be sent to Mdxhealth for Select mdx for Prostate Cancer testing. Your Select mdx test results will be sent to your urologist within 5 days.

Who are MDxHealth competitors?

MDxHealth's competitors and similar companies include Veracyte, nRichDX, Chundsell Medicals and DEBN .

What does the decipher test tell you?

The Decipher test looks at the activity of 22 genes in prostate cancer cells . If you were recently diagnosed with prostate cancer, there are a few different ways to gauge how aggressive the cancer is—in other words, to see if your cancer is likely to spread beyond the prostate.

Confirm mdx can help pinpoint a false-negative biopsy and identify men who are at high risk of aggressive prostate cancer . This test examines a sample of the previously-taken biopsy at the molecular level. Unfortunately, up to 30% of men with a negative biopsy actually have prostate cancer.

What is the CPT code for confirm MDX?

CPT/HCPCS Codes ConfirmMDx assay ( CPT 81551 ), performed on formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue specimens.

What does ExoDx measure?

The ExoDx Prostate Test is a non-invasive, non-DRE, urine test used as a risk assessment tool to provide risk probabilities for aggressive prostate cancer . It relies on cancer-specific genomic biomarkers found in the urine.
