Renalytix has licenced the technology related to KidneyIntelX from the Icahn School of Medicine located at Mount Sinai in New York.

The KidneyIntelX technology platform has been developed to launch new laboratory-developed and FDA-approved tests for adult patients with type 2 diabetes and early-stage CKD.

Renalytix CEO James McCullough said: “Meeting the rigorous safety, clinical and analytical validation and scientific data requirements of an FDA review, from Breakthrough Device designation to De Novo marketing authorisation, is a landmark event for health care providers and patients with diabetic kidney disease.

“With this approval a new class, Prognostic Test for Assessment of Chronic Kidney Disease Progression, has been established by the FDA, providing a roadmap for future expansion of KidneyIntelX into new indications and products.”
