Company Summary

Current prostate cancer diagnostic testing fails to clearly and accurately classify one third of tumors as indolent or aggressive, resulting in a significant number of over-treatment. Nano Discovery, Inc. is developing a novel, proprietary diagnostic test with the potential to identify aggressive prostate cancer from indolent tumor. Nano Discovery’s new test will improve patient outcomes and reduce costs to the healthcare system.
