Our Technology
Our validated blood-based platforms have the potential to dramatically improve standards of care for many diseases
The Power of Proteins
​
Sunbird Bio’s proprietary blood-based diagnostic tests provide unprecedented insights, offering the potential to enable precision neurology by providing earlier and more complete diagnosis and treatment for patients suffering from Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and other neurological disorders.
​
Diagnostic tests are an essential component of drug development, disease detection, disease monitoring and personalized treatment selection. However, the usefulness of current diagnostic approaches such as molecular diagnostics and PET imaging is often limited.
Sunbird Bio's approach has the potential to overcome the inaccessibility, invasiveness and/or lack of reliability associated with standard diagnostic tests.
Through our novel platforms, we aim to empower clinicians and researchers with unparalleled, actionable information and insights that can accelerate drug development and enable earlier, more accurate diagnosis and treatment of disease.
The Foundation of Sunbird Bio's Solutions
Strong Patented Technology
-
Our proprietary detection method utilizes extracellular vesicles that carry diseased proteins through the blood-brain barrier.
-
Our APEX instrument utilizes proprietary sensors that measure a wavelength signal which allows us to quantify test results and potentially facilitate better disease monitoring and improved therapeutic response.
Products, Platform and Pipeline
-
Our platform technology is readily adaptable, enabling the addition of new biomarkers and disease signatures as advances continue in the understanding of neurological disorders and therapeutic development.
Extensive Clinical Data
-
We have run multiple studies across various biomarkers, including samples from hundreds of patients with neurological disorders, showing consistently strong correlation to disease diagnosis.
Why Proteins?
Proteins are primary effectors in biological systems and among the most informative tools we have for disease diagnosis.
Detecting and analyzing proteins or their modifications provides direct and reliable insights into functional changes in cells and tissues that may reflect disease states. In addition, as compared to DNA or RNA, proteins are proximal to disease, providing a better reflection of biological activity.
