RE: Global application specialist needed at Genedrive 🙂30 May 2025 07:08
The Genedrive® CYP2C19 ID Kit rapid test is best in class, recommended by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence ("NICE") as the rapid genotyping platform of choice for use in the NHS, with dominant health economics, wider patient group coverage, and performance shown to be superior to laboratory testing methods.
Dr Gino Miele, CEO of genedrive plc, said: "We are delighted to achieve this certification for our best-in-class CYP2C19 rapid genotyping platform. IVDR requirements have placed a heavy demand on Notified Bodies ("NB") responsible for ensuring compliance, and whilst certification of our Quality Management System and CYP2C19 ID kit under IVDR encountered a minor delay, it is noteworthy that this has still been achieved approximately six months earlier due to mitigation plans we put in place in August last year with respect to our NB.
"Whilst UKCA certification enabled a focus on national commercialisation routes, including implementation into routine clinical use in NHS England's largest Hyper Acute Stroke Centre, and Middle East regions, we have also focussed efforts on defining market access routes in specific European countries which CE-certification now permits, and in non-European countries in which it facilitates registrations. Implementation of our rapid CYP2C19 platform has been estimated to potentially prevent c.3000 recurrent stroke admissions annually, whilst offering £160m of value, releasing 62,000 hospital beds and 230,000 healthcare professional hours in NHS England alone.
"These patient outcomes, financial and productivity gains are substantial and I am excited about the future impact of our solution to patients and healthcare systems both in the UK and internationally."
