QIAGEN receives U.S. clearance for second QIAstat-Dx mini gastrointestinal panel, expanding U.S. syndromic testing portfolio
GERMANTOWN, Md. & VENLO, Netherlands--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mar 6, 2025--
QIAGEN (NYSE: QGEN; Frankfurt Prime Standard: QIA) today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has cleared the QIAstat-Dx Gastrointestinal Panel 2 Mini B for clinical use, further strengthening its syndromic testing portfolio in the United States.
This marks QIAGEN's second FDA clearance of a QIAstat-Dx panel in 2025, and builds on the authorization of five panels for use on the QIAstat-Dx system within the last 10 months.
QIAGEN has now received regulatory clearances for three mini panels for detection of respiratory and gastrointestinal conditions, with these panels designed for outpatient use to aid fast and informed treatment decisions.
This newly authorized panel focuses solely on bacterial infections covering Campylobacter, Salmonella, Shiga-like toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC), Shigella, and Yersinia enterocolitica – all recognized by the Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA) as leading causes of gastrointestinal illness. It is designed to complement the QIAstat-Dx Gastrointestinal Panel 2 Mini B&V (Bacterial & Viral) that covers Campylobacter, Salmonella, Shiga-like toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC), Shigella, and Norovirus.
Acute infectious gastroenteritis leads to an estimated 179 million cases annually in the U.S., driving significant numbers of outpatient visits and hospitalizations. 1
'QIAGEN is committed to expanding its syndromic testing portfolio in the U.S. to provide laboratories and clinicians with targeted, efficient diagnostic solutions,' said Nadia Aelbrecht, Vice President and Head of Infectious Diseases at QIAGEN. 'With the FDA clearance of our second QIAstat-Dx mini gastrointestinal panel, we are further strengthening our ability to address diverse patient needs while supporting healthcare providers in optimizing diagnostic workflows and offering them the flexibility they need.'
The QIAstat-Dx Gastrointestinal Panel 2 Mini B runs on QIAGEN's QIAstat-Dx system and leverages its ability to quickly multiply many genetic targets using real-time PCR technology in the same reaction, delivering results in about one hour and with less than one minute of hands-on time. Cycle threshold (Ct) values and amplification curves provide laboratories with additional information in the context of co‑infections, and are instantly viewable on the instrument touchscreen with no additional software required.
QIAGEN is the first company to offer both comprehensive and targeted syndromic gastrointestinal panels, allowing laboratories to tailor testing to their specific requirements. The QIAstat-Dx Gastrointestinal Panel 2 Mini B is optimized for settings where bacterial pathogens are the primary concern, complementing the previously cleared QIAstat-Dx Gastrointestinal Panel 2 Mini B&V panel, which includes both bacterial and viral targets.
Together with the FDA-approved 16-target QIAstat-Dx Gastrointestinal Panel 2, which is highly suitable for hospitalized patients with risk factors for severe disease, these panels address the distinct diagnostic needs of both inpatient and outpatient care, while also addressing a growing demand for flexible testing options that can address healthcare reimbursement challenges.
The QIAstat-Dx system is currently available in more than 100 countries, with over 4,600 instruments placed worldwide through the end of 2024. QIAGEN plans to further expand its QIAstat-Dx portfolio and has recently submitted the QIAstat-Dx Rise, a higher-capacity instrument designed to process up to 160 tests per day, for U.S. regulatory clearance.

Positive Interim 2-Year Data from enVVeno Medical's VenoValve Pivotal Study to be Presented Today at the Society for Vascular Surgery (SVS) 2025 Vascular Annual Meeting
Interim two-year follow-up data from 42 subjects in the VenoValve pivotal trial show sustained clinical improvement and continued patient benefit at 24 months compared to baseline 83% of subjects maintained a clinically meaningful benefit with a 3 or more point improvement in Revised Venous Clinical Severity Score (rVCSS) 9.1 point average rVCSS improvement among the clinically meaningful benefit cohort Subjects experienced a median 74% improvement in leg pain Interim follow-up data indicate sustained improvements across all venous-specific quality-of-life (QoL) indicators A decision from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on the VenoValve is anticipated in the second half of 2025 Company to host live webcast with presenting Principal Investigator, today, June 6th at 11:20 AM ET / 10:20 AM CT - Access the Webcast Here IRVINE, CA / ACCESS Newswire / June 6, 2025 / enVVeno Medical Corporation (Nasdaq:NVNO) ("enVVeno" or the "Company"), a company setting new standards of care for the treatment of deep venous disease, today announced that interim two-year follow-up data on 42 subjects from the 75 person VenoValve U.S. pivotal trial will be presented today by lead enroller Dr. Cassius Iyad Ochoa Chaar, at the Society for Vascular Surgery (SVS) 2025 Vascular Annual Meeting (VAM25) being held June 4-7, 2025 in New Orleans, LA. Additionally, the Company announced it will host a live webcast to discuss these interim results today, Friday, June 6th at 11:20 AM ET / 10:20 AM CT (details below). Key interim two-year follow-up data being presented at VAM25 include: 83.3% of subjects (n=35/42) maintained a clinically meaningful benefit, defined as an improvement of 3 or more points in the revised Venous Clinical Severity Score (rVCSS).9.1 point average rVCSS improvement among the responder cohort.A median 74% improvement in leg pain, as measured by the Visual Analog Scale (VAS).Wound healing outcomes in 17 subjects with 25 ulcers showed that 60% of ulcers healed completely, 24% decreased in size, and 16% increased in outcomes also demonstrated sustained improvements across all venous specific QoL indicators (VEINES-QoL/Sym).Among the subjects (n=30), a 100% valve patency rate. All values were calculated comparing each patient's baseline levels to the reported values at the patient's 24-month visit. The Revised Venous Clinical Severity Score (rVCSS) is a clinically validated scoring system used to track the progression or regression of venous diseases. "These interim two-year follow-up data demonstrate substantial and sustained improvement across all effectiveness endpoints at two years. This is extremely encouraging, especially when you consider that all the patients enrolled in the study had severe CVI and failed all other treatment options," said Robert Berman, enVVeno Medical's Chief Executive Officer. "Despite attempts over many decades, nobody has been able to create an effective treatment for severe CVI caused by malfunctioning valves in the deep veins of the leg. The VenoValve has the potential to change the treatment paradigm for deep venous CVI, both for the millions of patients suffering from severe CVI and the thousands of vascular surgeons who have been waiting for an effective treatment option." Dr. Cassius Iyad Ochoa Chaar, who is the Associate Professor of Surgery, Division of Vascular Surgery and Endovascular Therapy, Yale School of Medicine, will present the abstract titled, "Patients with Deep Venous Reflux Continue to Experience Clinical Improvement 2-year after Implantation of the VenoValve" today at VAM 2025. The VenoValve is a potential first-in-class, surgical replacement venous valve for patients with severe deep venous CVI. The Company estimates that there are approximately 2.5 million potential new patients each year in the U.S. that could be candidates for the VenoValve. The Company has submitted a pre-market authorization (PMA) application for the VenoValve to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), with a decision anticipated in the second half of 2025. Webcast Details The Company will host a webcast presentation to discuss the results for investors, analysts and other interested parties today, June 6, 2025, at 11:20 AM ET / 10:20 AM CT. Joining enVVeno management for the event will be Dr. Chaar. The live webcast will be accessible on the Events page of the enVVeno website, and will be archived for 90 days. About CVI Severe, deep venous Chronic Venous Insufficiency (CVI) is a debilitating disease that is most often caused by blood clots (deep vein thromboses or DVTs) in the deep veins of the leg. When valves inside of the veins of the leg fail, blood flows in the wrong direction and pools in the lower leg, causing pressure within the veins of the leg to increase (venous hypertension). Symptoms of severe CVI include leg swelling, pain, edema, and in the most severe cases, recurrent open sores known as venous ulcers. The disease can severely impact everyday functions such as sleeping, bathing, dressing, and walking, and is known to result in high rates of depression and anxiety. There are currently no effective treatments for severe CVI of the deep vein system caused by valvular incompetence. Estimates indicate that CVI costs the U.S. healthcare system in excess of $4 billion each year. About enVVeno Medical Corporation enVVeno Medical (NASDAQ:NVNO) is an Irvine, California-based, late clinical-stage medical device Company focused on the advancement of innovative bioprosthetic (tissue-based) solutions to improve the standard of care for the treatment of deep venous disease. The Company's lead product, the VenoValve®, is a first-in-class surgical replacement venous valve being developed for the treatment of deep venous Chronic Venous Insufficiency (CVI). The Company is also developing a non-surgical, transcatheter based replacement venous valve for the treatment of deep venous CVI called enVVe®. Both the VenoValve and enVVe are designed to act as one-way valves, to help assist in propelling blood up the leg, and back to the heart and lungs. The VenoValve is currently being evaluated in the VenoValve U.S. pivotal study and the Company is currently performing the final testing necessary to seek approval for the pivotal trial for enVVe.
