RE: FDA approval2 Feb 2022 15:20
I've stated before, there are two parts:
A. FDA application for *Professional*:
US Food and Drug Administration for Emergency Use Authorisation, for use of the *professional-use* test under both the VISITECT® and Global Access Diagnostics brands. We understand additional US trial data is required in support of this submission and that this is in process.
B. FDA application for *Self-test*:
A feasibility study as to the process, timelines and likely high-level costs associated with the submission of the VISITECT® COVID *self-test* for FDA approval is currently underway, although the cost of gaining approval may be prohibitive.
As the RNS states the professional-use test is going ahead and cost issues are not a problem, and the self-test is undergoing a a feasibility study. So option A is alive and kicking and option B is still on the cards pending feasibility study, in fact ODX could have both a self-test and professional test for the US market if the feasibility study comes back positive.
