Activity Class: PartnershipActivity
Partnership: Document Extract: Through a collaboration with MD Anderson Cancer Center and Su Clinica, a federally qualified health center, the company described the pilot program as the first of its kind, spanning locations in Brownsville, Harlingen, Raymondville and Santa Rosa. " Not only can cervical cancer be prevented, with greater access to vaccines and screening, we have a real opportunity to eliminate this disease as a public health problem in our lifetimes ," Su Clinica CEO Elena Marin said in a statement. " Women in our region are disproportionately affected by cervical cancer, both in terms of rates and mortality, so there is an urgent need to remove barriers to potentially life-saving screening, and self-collection is a pivotal solution ," Marin added. " Having a test that is safe, private, and easy to use will go a long way towards increasing cancer screening rates for those who may be hesitant or unable to receive a traditional screening ." BD's Onclarity HPV assay received an FDA approval in May, alongside a test developed by Roche, that allows women to skip the traditional Pap smear exam.
