QuickView: Epi proColon gets FDA fillip

In a surprise move, the FDA has reversed its request for a new behavioural study of Epigenomics’ blood-based colorectal cancer (CRC) diagnostic test, Epi proColon. US marketing clearance and launch now look likely over the coming few months. With a current cash reach to H216, a cash call may now be deferred until after a possible US approval, and the consequent increased certainty may prove beneficial to current shareholders.
