Israeli Startup JaxBio Snags €8.5M EU Grant to Support Creation of Array-Based Cancer Tests
JaxBio Technologies, an Israeli company, has received an €8.5 million EU Horizon Europe grant to support the development of a new array-based platform for diagnosing hematological malignancies. The project, called Sanguine, aims to develop a liquid biopsy-based test that can classify a set of hematological malignancies by detecting epigenetic markers in peripheral blood cells and cell-free DNA. The test will use a custom microarray called the HemaChip. The funding will pave the way for the eventual deployment of the test in clinical settings. JaxBios technology is a cost-effective and scalable alternative to sequencing and PCR. The company is also working on a project called Base6 to develop a custom microarray targeted to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine. JaxBio is planning a series A round in the near future.
