MASH / MAFLD
Almac PNPLA3 – Clinical Trial Assay (CTA)
- Almac has developed and analytically validated a qPCR genotyping CTA to support allelic discrimination of PNPLA3 genotypes within whole blood and buccal swab samples, to identify patients homozygous or heterozygous for the PNPLA3 (rs738409) variants.
- The PNPLA3 Genotyping CTA was successfully developed and analytically validated for delivery from Almac’s UK and US CLIA laboratories. Almac has also successfully transferred the PNPLA3 Genotyping CTA to a partner laboratory within China.
