INEX Innovate, is pleased to announce the launch of epiHERAยฎ the companyโ€™s early endometrial cancer detection technology, unveiled at the 2023 Singapore International Congress of Obstetrics and Gynaecology (SICOG).

With 1 in 10 women suffering from abnormal bleeding during their lifetime and requiring an invasive specialist biopsy procedure to rule out endometrial cancer. By using the widely accepted PAP smear or HPV sampling procedure instead, epiHERAยฎ holds great potential as an adjunct tool to help clinicians right at the clinic.

At the core of epiHERAยฎ lies an advanced PCR test designed to identify epigenetic alterations in genes linked to the presence of endometrial cancer. This streamlined process concludes within approximately six hours.

Made in Singapore ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฌ in collaboration with our partner JH CisPoly, INEX Innovate's epiHERAยฎ technology addresses a crucial gap in current diagnostics by promoting equitable access to testing for vulnerable women.

The novel methodology optimizes sample acquisition, significantly decreasing turnaround time from weeks to days. The scalability of molecular PCR testing assures broad accessibility, further amplifying the impact of epiHERAยฎ within the domain of women's health.

In validation studies undertaken, and ongoing, at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) epiHERAยฎ has shown promising results. epiHERAยฎ now is available for Research Use Only.
