Who We Are

A new standard for early detection

EarlyScreenDx is a diagnostics company built on one conviction: cancer detected early saves lives. We are translating cutting-edge biomarker science into accessible, affordable screening tools that can reach patients before symptoms appear.


Founded by a team spanning oncology, molecular biology, and healthcare operations, we are developing our flagship colon cancer detection kit in collaboration with leading Indian biotech partners, with breast and lung cancer screening kits already in the roadmap.

Mission

To make cancer screening as routine as a blood pressure check, empowering millions to catch the disease at its most treatable stage.

Approach

We combine proprietary biomarker discovery with simple colorimetric chemistry, enabling results that are readable without complex laboratory equipment.

Collaboration

We work with established Indian diagnostic manufacturing partners to accelerate kit scale-up and quality validation.

How It Works

Science made visible

Our patented platform detects a unique biomarker expressed in cancerous and precancerous tissue and turns it into colour you can see.

01

Biomarker Identification

A proprietary biomarker expressed specifically in cancerous and precancerous colorectal tissue is targeted by our detection system. The biomarker is absent in healthy tissue, providing high specificity.

02

Sample Collection

Patients provide a simple, non-invasive sample at the point of care using our collection kit. No bowel prep, no sedation, and no complex laboratory infrastructure required.

03

Proprietary Reagent Reaction

When the sample contacts our proprietary reagents, a colorimetric reaction occurs exclusively in the presence of the cancer biomarker, producing a visible colour change that indicates a positive result.

04

Patented Detection System

Our intellectual property covers both the biomarker target and the reagent system, creating a defensible, first-mover advantage across multiple cancer types.

05

Clinical Follow-Up

Positive results are followed by confirmatory clinical diagnostics. Our system is designed as a population-level first screen, safe, scalable, and actionable.

Competitive Landscape

The only test that is accurate, affordable, and accessible

Every existing screening option forces a trade-off — accuracy, cost, or reach. EarlyScreenDx is built to deliver all three at the point of care.
