Method of Detecting Circulating Cell-Free HPV 6 and 11 DNA in Patients Afflicted With Diseases Caused by Chronic HPV 6 or 11 Infection and Use Thereof

Summary:

The National Cancer Institute (NCI) and Frederick National Laboratory for Cancer Research (FNLCR) seek research co-development partners and/or licensees for commercial development of a novel liquid biopsy diagnostic for non-invasive detection of cell-free HPV 6 and 11 DNA for recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP).

Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) for Non-Destructive Assessment of Epithelial Integrity

This technology includes a novel apparatus and method that utilizes Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) to assess the integrity of epithelial cell membranes non-destructively. By applying frequency-modulated voltage signals and facilitating fluid exchange on both sides of the epithelial tissue, this technology allows researchers to characterize membrane-specific responses with unprecedented accuracy.
