One consequence from the coronavirus pandemic could possibly be the adoption of CareDx Inc (NASDAQ: CDNA)’s administration platform for organ transplant sufferers. 

“This can be a second the place it’s very apparent that monitoring these sufferers remotely with a blood draw is best than moving into for biopsies,” CEO Peter Maag informed Benzinga.

“Transplant sufferers are actually anxious. After getting a transplant, your immune system is subdued and extra susceptible to infections. They don’t wish to return to transplant facilities, as a result of in addition they take care of coronavirus sufferers.”

In Maag’s view, social distancing has made clear the worth of at-home diagnostics. He’s led CareDx to launch a cellular phlebotomy service and distant monitoring answer for sufferers remoted by the coronavirus.

CareDx’s Product Portfolio

CareDx guides precision administration of transplant procedures with its suite of distant match-testing, diagnostic monitoring and digital medical file applied sciences. Its merchandise are utilized in greater than 1,000 transplant facilities around the globe, together with 84 of the U.S.’s 250 facilities.

The post-kidney transplant diagnostic monitoring system, AlloSure, boasts the strongest demand. It detects the well being of every transplanted organ by analyzing biomarkers within the bloodstream.

“AlloSure is executing in opposition to a $2-billion alternative, which is driving the corporate and all the thrill within the monetary markets,” Maag stated.

CareDx’s Monetary Well being

CareDx could have to attend to capitalize on that chance. The corporate not too long ago withdrew its 2020 steerage to account for macro uncertainty, unpredictable transplant quantity and the unknown capability of transplant facilities to ramp up distant options amid the coronavirus outbreak.

Within the interim, Maag stated he is assured in CareDx’s solvency.

“We’ve been managing this very fastidiously,” the CEO stated of his in-office response.

After six quarters of optimistic adjusted EBITDA and cash-breakeven operations, he considers the corporate to be in a comparatively sustainable place.

“The disaster doesn’t hit us that onerous. There may all the time be somewhat bit extra [cash], however no worries right here.”

CareRx firm has “all financing choices out there to us at any time,” he stated. 

As soon as the disaster is over, Maag expects transplant companies — and CareDx’s gross sales development — to return to earlier ranges.

“The necessity for transplantation is big due to the lengthy listing of sufferers to get transplants,” Maag stated.

“For everybody that will get it, 5 extra want it … volumes will come up immediately. The expansion charges will proceed.”

The Regulatory Panorama

Maag stated he feels “extraordinarily good” concerning the regulatory atmosphere, notably because the U.S. has affirmed the worth of diagnostics expertise. “Many transplant sufferers are Medicare sufferers, and Medicare has been on the forefront [of adoption],” he stated, citing sturdy reimbursement for CareDx’s merchandise.

The regulation has additionally come down on the facet of CareDx. A U.S. court docket not too long ago upheld the corporate’s mental property rights in a lawsuit alleging patent infringement by Natera Inc (NASDAQ: NTRA). Maag stated the result helps affirm the relevance of IP in diagnostics.

Natera has since countersued CareDx, alleging false promoting.

Maag stated the corporate is in a “excellent place.”

“We smiled somewhat bit, as a result of when that occurs you already know the opposite facet is attempting to scramble,” he stated of the lawsuit. 

CareDx’s IP has energetic litigation in opposition to Viracor Eurofins, and Maag stated he expects information on that entrance in 2021.

CareDx’s Upcoming Catalysts

Within the close to time period, CareDx plans to deal with its world enlargement and pipeline improvement — together with a enterprise into CAR-T.

“The large catalyst is the following step into mobile remedy,” Maag stated. “[It’s] the place I believe the sector of medication will go. We see this as a transplantation phenomenon.”
