By GlobalDataInitially, the focus will be on fostering new licensing and sales opportunities in the Netherlands, Belgium, Italy and Spain.
Under the fee-for-service agreement, which includes commission-based incentives, Growth Medics will be the sole sales agency for Proteomics International in the targeted European countries.
The two-year engagement can be extended by mutual agreement and includes standard terms, conditions and warranties.
Both parties retain the right to terminate the partnership with six weeks’ notice if there is a breach of any material terms.
Proteomics International managing director Richard Lipscombe said: “We believe Growth Medics is an ideal partner to drive the commercialisation of PromarkerD through Europe due to their extensive market knowledge, proven track record, regulatory expertise and strong relationships with key stakeholders.
“This is a material development in our expansion strategy for PromarkerD across the diverse European market.”
The PromarkerD prognostic test, which is CE Mark registered in the EU, was developed to predict future kidney function decline in patients with type 2 diabetes.
Using a simple blood test, the test can detect a unique ‘fingerprint’ of the early disease onset by measuring three serum protein biomarkers, combined with three conventional clinical variables that are routinely available.
The results are integrated into a patient risk report using a cloud-based algorithm.
