PGxHealth, a division of Clinical Data, Inc. is committed to leveraging pharmacogenomics (PGxÔ) and its capabilities in genetic marker identification and validation, to develop and commercialize novel genetic tests leading to safer and more efficacious therapeutics. PGxHealth utilizes its expertise and established infrastructure to discover genetic markers and in-license others that form the foundation of these genetic tests. These tests are targeted to assist healthcare providers in determining the most efficacious and safe treatment for their patients. Advances in biomarker identification, pharmacogenomics, laboratory practices and the clinic, have set the stage for the use of genetic biomarkers to create what we have branded Therapeutic DiagnosticsÔ. Therapeutic DiagnosticsÔ are genetic tests that utilize unique genetic markers to determine which individuals will experience optimal benefit from specific therapies. PGxHealth has an advantage over competitors in its marker development efforts due to its unique collection of human genetic variability housed in the HAPÔ Database and broad experience in marker identification and validation. The Company's ultimate objective is to develop and provide tests that result in reductions in the cost of therapy and patient care, while enhancing clinical outcomes. PGxHealth is built on a foundation of intellectual property owned exclusively by Clinical Data. This intellectual property sits at the core of our delivery of genomic-based tests and the development of efficacy and safety biomarkers for drug utilization. Today, PGxHealth is in the process of developing additional proprietary markers as the core of its genetic tests with a focus in:Central Nervous System (CNS) Cardiovascular Oncology As another example of the Company's efforts in CNS, the division has commenced a pivotal Phase III clinical trial for Vilazodone, a novel compound being studied for treatment of depression, to be used in combination with a Therapeutic Diagnostic.
