ALS DIAGNOSTIC
ALS is currently clinically diagnosed by ruling out all other diseases that may cause symptoms similar to those presented by the patient. Iron Horse is developing the first diagnostic test for ALS that will rapidly determine if someone has the disease. Iron Horse is also developing markers of disease progression that will be useful to monitor disease progression and drug treatments during clinical trials.

TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY
Mild or repetitive injury to the brain is both a challenge to detect and difficult to determine when the injury has been resolved and the brain healed. Current clinical tools fail to detect or monitor the biologic basis of brain injury. Iron Horse is developing blood-based assays to directly detect injury to cells of the central nervous system. This test will be valuable to detect and monitor brain injury and concussion.

COMPANY INFORMATION

Iron Horse Diagnostics, Inc. is a privately held molecular diagnostic company focused on the development and commercialization of novel tests to support the diagnosis and management of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), traumatic brain injury (TBI), and other neurological diseases.

Iron Horse has developed and validated assays to measure protein-based signatures of disease. Our first product line will be blood-based and cerebrospinal fluid-based diagnostic tests for ALS. We will also have a biomarker panel to monitor ALS disease progression. Our next product will be a blood-based test for TBI and a biomarker panel to assay neuronal injury using a blood sample. We also expect to use our assays to test the effectiveness of drugs in clinical trials.

The Market
Iron Horse Diagnostics seeks to relieve human suffering for some of the most challenging health disorders. ALS, or Lou Gehrig’s disease, is a devastating disease that is nearly always fatal within 5 years of onset. Traumatic Brain Injury cases have very significant health care costs. Iron Horse will impact these disorders with highly effective diagnostics, enabling early detection.
