Pathwork (TM) Diagnostics Incorporated, established in 2006 with Predicant Biosciences' acquisition of Pathwork Informatics, develops molecular diagnostic systems that optimize the treatment of cancer. The firm's Pathwork Diagnostics Laboratory, which has earned Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendment (CLIA) certification, provides customers with microarray-based diagnostic testing services. The company also plans to offer FDA-cleared diagnostic kits to clinical laboratories. The firm is known for the Pathwork Tissue of Origin Test, which is used to identify tumors of uncertain origin. The test measures the expression of over 1,500 genes present in tissue samples. It generates a tumor's gene expression profile. The profile then is compared to 15 known tissues, representing 60 morphologies. A probability score is provided for each tissue type. The test allows clinicians to target cancer therapies and reduce patients' exposure to toxicities. Pathwork Diagnostics investors include Prospect Venture Partners, Advent Venture Partners, Novus Ventures, Venrock Associates, and Versant Ventures. Pathwork Diagnostics is based in Sunnyvale, California. The firm was founded by Glenda Anderson.
