HepQuant develops and markets advanced, minimally invasive, quantitative liver function tests to help healthcare providers manage patients with chronic liver disease more effectively. The HepQuant DuO Test is a blood-based, first-in-class, functional test to assess liver health across the disease continuum. The HepQuant DuO Test measures cholate clearance, a liver specific function that directly quantifies liver function and physiology. This unique approach gives the physician information about liver cell function, portal hypertension, and portal-systemic shunting, attributes of liver disease that are associated with clinical outcomes. HepQuant DuO results adjunctively help to stratify a patient’s clinical risk, monitor treatment response, and predict disease progression and adverse outcomes, such as ascites, encephalopathy and variceal bleeding.
