24-Mar-2009 - USA

The US medical agency FDA has granted Phadia the clearance to sell and market its new POC allergy test ImmunoCAP® Rapid product in US.

“This is a historical event in the diagnostic industry since it is the first semi-quantitative POC allergy test that has been FDA cleared. It is a major milestone for Phadia in building the ImmunoCAP franchise even stronger and will provide more patients with allergy-like symptoms the possibility to get a correct diagnosis” says Håkan Englund, Executive Vice President Phadia AB.

ImmunoCAP Rapid will be introduced on the US market later in the year. The European version of ImmunoCAP Rapid has been marketed and sold in selected European countries for over 2 years.
