Power3 Medical Products Inc. (PWRM)

Power3 Medical Products, Inc. is a leading bio-technology company focused on the development of innovative diagnostic tests in the fields of cancer and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (commonly known as ALS or Lou Gehrig’s disease).

The NuroPro Blood Test is Power3 Medical’s diagnostic tool for the early detection of Neurodegenerative diseases. The analysis is designed as a tool for physicians to diagnose various degenerative diseases of the brain and nervous system. The test involves monitoring the concentration of 59 proteins in blood serum to accurately detect and distinguish between Alzheimer’s disease, ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease), and Parkinson’s disease. Early detection of these diseases will allow physicians to intervene at an early stage to delay disease progression, potentially allowing patients to outlive their debilitating symptoms.

Parkinson’s disease develops as a result of the inability of nerves to carry signals within the brain. Normally a chemical called dopamine allows nerves in the brain that control movement to transmit signals to each other. As the cells that make dopamine die Parkinson’s disease progresses. The cause of cell death leading to Parkinson’s disease remains a mystery although many theories have been put forward.

The primary problem in Parkinson’s disease is a lack of the chemical called dopamine. Therefore, most of the medications used to treat the condition are aimed at replacing this chemical.

The NuroPro Test is currently in the development stages. The company has completed proof-of-concept and clinical validation studies, with results exceeding expectations. Currently, Power3 Medical has commenced a three hundred patient clinical validation study of its NuroPro diagnostic test for Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease.
