Labcorp Launches First FDA-Cleared Blood Test for Alzheimer's Disease, Revolutionizing Early Diagnosis Nationwide

Labcorp Holdings Inc. has announced the nationwide availability of the Lumipulse® pTau-217/Beta Amyloid 42 Ratio, the first blood-based in-vitro diagnostic test cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to aid in diagnosing Alzheimer's disease. Developed by Fujirebio Diagnostics, Inc., the test offers early detection of amyloid plaques associated with Alzheimer's in adults aged 50 and older who show signs of cognitive decline. This FDA clearance marks a significant advancement in accessible and less invasive diagnostic options, as the test requires only a simple blood draw. The test is available at Labcorp's over 2,200 Patient Service Centers nationwide.
