Lynsight (LS CancerDiag Ltd) is committed to reducing cancer mortality rates with an efficient, simple diagnostic method that detects an inherited cancer-causing condition prior to cancer. Their vision is to see DiagMMR™ as a new global testing standard in LS diagnostics. Lynch syndrome is the main cause of hereditary colorectal cancers and it also causes a broad spectrum of other tumors. With a significant proportion of the world’s population carrying the Lynch syndrome mutation, there are potentially tens of millions under a severe risk for being affected by LS. Their groundbreaking DiagMMR™ assay is an easy functional test that can be used for diagnosis of MMR deficiency i.e. Lynch syndrome (previously known as Hereditary Non­Polyposis Colorectal Cancer; HNPCC). Their mission is to save lives through an innovation that dramatically simplifies diagnostics of Lynch syndrome by delivering predictive and accurate results with a fast, unique and cost-efficient method globally.
