Presentation Transcript

  1. Center for Homogeneous DNA Analysis University of Utah Departments of Pathology, Mathematics, and Engineering

  2. What We Do And Why • High Resolution Melting Analysis • We Watch DNA Unwind Very Carefully • Mutation Scanning, Genotyping, Transplant Compatibility • Proprietary Technology

  3. What’s So Special? • Faster, More Economical • Minutes vs. Hours • Pennies vs. Dollars • We Do It Automatically Without Opening The PCR Tube - Simpler • Highly Accurate • Detects Single Base Changes In 1000bps

  4. High-Resolution Melting Analysis: Hardware, Reagents, Software LightScanner™

  5. A Medically Important Mutation - 3000 tests/mo in UT “Auto Call” of Plate Using Unbiased Hierarchal Clustering Temperature

  6. CEPH Family UT1331 2, 9, 10, 13 8 3, 5, 6, 11, 12 1, 4, 7 Transplant Matching

  7. Transplant Matching • Traditionally done by sequencing or serology: • $1,200 per family member ($15,600 for UT1331 family) • High-resolution melting analysis: • can be priced as low as $100 per family member ($1,300) • Transplants: 50,000/year U.S.

  8. Current Status • Scanning Technology • Partly Licensed to Utah Company • Product Sales: $600,000 first year • Enthusiastic customer feedback (e.g. Mayo Clinic) • Twelve new jobs • Two Fast Track STTRs granted • $1.7M matching funds • For advanced instrumentation

  9. The Vision • Make DNA screening routine for: • Research (individual labs ~ core labs) • Gene-mapping organizations • Clinical reference labs • Eventually, hospital STAT labs • Displace 95% of DNA sequencing market

  10. Market Size & Forecast • 42 million assays annually • $10M using melting analysis • Displaces $150M using sequencing • 12,000 instruments, software, $195M • Reagents • Developing market • HLA, 50,000 transplants (US) • Molecular tests growing at +15%

  11. Future Reality • DNA diagnosis at your doctor’s office. • PCR in 15 min • Melting in 2 min • Immediate automated analysis • PCR and melting on a chip • 1 32  384  384,000 • Whole genome analysis (30,000 genes)
