Dow Jones Description
We are a leading healthcare company focused on the development and marketing of novel molecular diagnostic and therapeutic products. We employ a number of proprietary technologies that permit us to understand the genetic basis of human disease and the role that genes and their related proteins play in the onset, progression and treatment of disease. We use this information to guide the development of new healthcare products that are designed to treat disease and assess a persons risk of disease later in life. Our molecular diagnostic business focuses on the analysis of genes and their alterations to assess an individuals risk for developing disease later in life (predictive medicine) and to assess a patients risk of disease progression, disease recurrence, drug toxicity, and drug response (personalized medicine). To date we have launched five commercial molecular diagnostic products, including both predictive medicine and personalized medicine products. We market these products through our own 200-person sales force in the United States and we have entered into marketing collaborations with other organizations in selected foreign countries. Molecular diagnostic revenue was $222.9 million for the year ended June 30, 2008, an increase of 53% over the prior fiscal year. We believe that the future of medicine lies in the creation of new classes of drugs that treat the underlying cause, not just the symptoms, of disease and that may be useful in disease prevention. ...
