Company Profile
Med BioGene Inc. (MBI) is a biotechnology company that is revolutionizing the diagnosis and treatment of certain cancers and cardiovascular disease by identifying the genes, known as "biomarkers," that indicate the presence of such diseases.
With a robust set of qualified biomarkers, disease diagnosis will be quicker, less invasive and more accurate. Moreover, treatment decisions will be tailored to the needs of each patient, the safety and effectiveness of new therapeutics will be enhanced and drug products will get to patients in less time.
The development of these biomarkers is the first step towards personalized medicine and will replace the conventional "one drug fits all" approach to disease management.
MBI is currently developing biomarkers for lymphoma and leukemia through its Hematological Cancer Profiling System™, and for cardiovascular disease through its Cardiovascular Disease Profiling System™.
