Zomedica Announces Launch of eACTH Assay for Truforma(R) Platform

ANN ARBOR, MI / ACCESSWIRE / April 4, 2022 / Zomedica Corp. (NYSE American:ZOM) ("Zomedica" or the "Company"), a veterinary health company offering diagnostic and therapeutic products for companion animals, today announced the commercial launch of its newest assay - endogenous ACTH (eACTH) - for the TRUFORMA In-Clinic Biosensor Testing Platform.

Larry Heaton, Zomedica's Chief Executive Officer, commented, "The proprietary TRUFORMA eACTH assay will bring a valuable diagnostic tool for veterinarians into their clinic for the first time. This new assay for the TRUFORMA instrument is an example of Zomedica's ongoing focus to meet the needs of clinical veterinarians in ways that promote both patient and practice health."

The TRUFORMA eACTH assay will offer veterinarians the ability to quickly differentiate between pituitary dependent (PDH) and adrenal dependent (ADH) Cushing's syndrome to inform management for the disease. Measurement of eACTH is the most effective way to distinguish between pituitary and adrenal dependent Cushing's disease in dogs. However, this test is not commonly used due to the instability of the eACTH molecule which makes sending samples to a reference lab difficult and unreliable. The TRUFORMA platform allows for measurement of eACTH at the point of care for the first time, making this valuable diagnostic assay readily accessible to practitioners.

"Endogenous ACTH measurement is one of the most useful and straight-forward diagnostics for differentiation between pituitary-dependent and adrenal-dependent hyperadrenocorticism, says Patty Lathan VMD, MS, DACVIM. Unfortunately, stringent sample handling requirements for shipping to an outside laboratory also make it one of the most under-used diagnostics."

The TRUFORMA eACTH assay is available for shipping April 4, 2022, directly from Zomedica.
