Frequently asked questions
- What is the SAAmplify-ɑSYN test and what does it detect?
- SAAmplify-ɑSYN is a qualitative laboratory-developed test that detects misfolded alpha-synuclein in CSF using seed amplification technology. It aids diagnosis of synucleinopathies such as Parkinson's disease, Lewy body dementia, multiple system atrophy, and Alzheimer's disease with Lewy body co-pathology, with autopsy-confirmed accuracy.
- What is the process for ordering and receiving SAAmplify-ɑSYN test results?
- Physicians order the test, collect CSF via lumbar puncture, and send the sample to Amprion's lab. The assay detects as few as 10 misfolded alpha-synuclein molecules, providing clear detected/not detected results to the physician for patient review, typically correlating with autopsy findings.
- What regulatory approvals and partnerships does Amprion have?
- The test has US FDA Breakthrough Device Designation. Amprion collaborates with Mayo Clinic Laboratories for US-wide access (Mayo ID: ASYNC) and has expanded partnerships in Australia, with technology validated across over 20,000 samples and 400+ autopsy confirmations.
