Qiagen was the most active firm of the period with a trio of new product launches, including the US launch of Therascreen FGFR RGQ RT-PCR Kit as a companion diagnostic for Janssen Pharmaceutical’s metastatic bladder cancer drug erdafitinib following FDA approval of the test. Among the more notable launches was GenePrism:Actionable Insights, the result of a collaboration between PerkinElmer and Helix. The firms touted the new genetic screening test enabling users to assess their risk for underlying diseases as “the most comprehensive clinical grade DNA sequencing and interpretation” test currently on the market.”
