Due to our CDA tests’ outstanding performance and competitive costs, we expect to see significant continued market opportunities and growth potential in China.”

At the same time, we are pushing ahead with our commercialization plan of CDA cancer screening tests in the US, with on-going commercialization efforts at our San Jose lab and opening of our second lab at Philadelphia.”
