SCIENCE
Calciprotein Particles (CPP) are a recently discovered class of circulating species recognized
as potent endogenous drivers of inflammation, oxidative stress and calcification.
For example Calciprotein Particles are crucially involved in the progression of chronic kidney
disease (CKD), and its resulting cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.
Calciscon is initially launching the T50 Calciprotein Crystallization test (T50® test) to
improve the quality of life of patients suffering from end-stage kidney disease.
PRODUCTS
Further products are under development.
Based on our unique expertise, expansion towards therapeutics is planned.
