LungLife AI the developer of an Artificial Intelligence (AI) enabled non-invasive liquid biopsy test for the early detection of lung cancer, announced today that the Company has received certification from the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA). Under the “deemed status” provision of the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), the state of California has granted the company’s initial CLIA clinical laboratory license.
“Today’s CLIA certification marks a pivotal step towards the commercialization of leading cancer diagnostics for early-stage lung cancer. Our LungLB test will provide a significant impact on patient outcomes and to clinical decision making. This CLIA certification is the natural next stage in becoming a lung cancer diagnostic leader.” said CEO, Sara Barrington.
