Quest Diagnostics (NYSE: DGX) published a study showing two AD-Detect blood-test panels accurately identify Alzheimer’s pathology in symptomatic patients. In an intended-use cohort of 215 patients (46% amyloid PET-positive), both panels met a 91% sensitivity and 91% specificity threshold used for confirmatory testing. The three-biomarker panel (AB42/40 + p-tau217 + ApoE4) yielded PPV 88%, NPV 91% and a 10% indeterminate rate. The two-biomarker panel (AB42/40 + p-tau217) showed PPV 87%, NPV 91% and a 15% indeterminate rate. Quest launched the two-biomarker panel in April 2025 and plans a version of the three-biomarker test in Q1 2026.
Results meet recommended thresholds from Alzheimer's Association and CEOi for confirmatory blood-based tests, suggesting potential to reduce reliance on PET or CSF follow-up.
