Immunovia (IMMNOV: Nasdaq Stockholm), the pancreatic cancer diagnostics company, today announced additional results from the successful VERIFI study of its next-generation pancreatic cancer test, strengthening the company’s position as it prepares to launch the pancreatic cancer blood test commercially.
Immunovia’s next-generation test detected significantly more cancers than CA19-9, a common biomarker for pancreatic cancer, in the study. The company also announced that the specificity of its test in the VERIFI study was equivalent to CA19-9 and just below the target specificity for the trial.
„The Immunovia test accurately classified cancerous and non-cancerous blood samples in the VERIFI study,“ said Jeff Borcherding, CEO of Immunovia. „The test once again significantly outperformed CA19-9. In addition, combined results from the CLARITI and VERIFI studies make it clear that our next-generation test can accurately detect pancreatic cancer in multiple different groups of high-risk individuals.“
VERIFI met the primary study endpoint. On March 19 2025, Immunovia announced the VERIFI study met its primary endpoint, with the test successfully detecting 77% of stage I and II pancreatic cancer cases, far exceeding the target of 65%. This sensitivity was significantly better than the sensitivity of CA19-9, which was 69%.
