We have a growing pipeline of products that are currently being developed and the potential to predict which therapies patients will respond to, ensuring optimal treatment is prescribed from day one.

This includes PrismRA, a precision medicine test that helps guide healthcare providers’ treatment decisions in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Pipeline indications span the autoimmune and immune-mediated diseases space. Learn more about Scipher at .
