CAMBRIDGE, Mass. & SINGAPORE

Sunbird Bio, a biotechnology company developing proprietary protein- and blood-based technologies to improve diagnosis and treatment of neurological disorders and early-stage cancer, today announced that new data from a study evaluating its APEX diagnostic platform in Alzheimer’s disease will be presented at the upcoming AD/PD™ 2024 International Conference on Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Disease, taking place March 5-9, 2024 in Lisbon, Portugal.

“We look forward to sharing the latest data from ongoing studies of our APEX platform at this year’s AD/PD conference,” said John McDonough, executive chair and CEO of Sunbird Bio. “The increasing availability of treatments for Alzheimer’s disease has amplified the need for improved diagnostics that will help physicians diagnose and treat patients much earlier. Our latest findings reinforce the potential of our APEX technology to overcome the inaccessibility, invasiveness and lack of reliability associated with today’s diagnostic tests.”

APEX, Sunbird Bio’s lead technology platform, is uniquely capable of detecting very low levels of nanoscale, disease-specific protein states in blood with high accuracy. Data published previously in Nature Communications demonstrated that the APEX platform can accurately detect amyloid beta (Aβ) molecules in the blood and thus signal the presence of Alzheimer’s disease.

Following are details about the APEX poster presentation at AD/PD™ 2024:

  • Title: Blood-Based Measurement of Circulating Prefibrillar Amyloid Biomarker Differentiates PET Verified Brain Amyloid Positivity Status in AD Cohort
  • Presenter: Mario Morken, Vice President, Head of Business Development
  • Theme A: B-Amyloid Diseases / A04.G. Imaging, Biomarkers, Diagnostics: Csf, Blood, Body Fluid Biomarkers
  • Date and Time: Friday, March 8, 2024, 9:00AM WET – Saturday, March 9, 2024, 6:00PM WET
