DAXOR ANNOUNCES KEY MILESTONES ACHIEVED FOR MULTICENTER BVA-100® STUDY IN HOSPITALIZED PATIENTS WITH COVID-19
05 Janvier 2022 - 2:00PM
Daxor Corporation (NYSE MKT: DXR), the global leader in blood
volume measurement technology, today announces patient enrollment
is complete and data analysis is underway in preparation for
publication of the multi-center observational prospective study
utilizing Daxor’s BVA-100 (Blood Volume Analyzer, “BVA”) technology
in hospitalized COVID-19 patients. NYU Langone Health, Wake Forest
School of Medicine and OHSU have been enrolling subjects since the
onset of the pandemic.
Dr. Jan Bakker, MD, PhD, NYU Langone Health, and
principal investigator, initiated this multi-center prospective
study utilizing the BVA-100 blood test to understand fluid
imbalances in COVID-19 patients as a result of initial research and
recent data published in the journal Critical Care. The study,
titled “Blood volume and albumin transudation in critically-ill
COVID-19 patients,” showed that COVID-19 patients suffer from
significant capillary damage and blood volume deficits that care
teams became aware of only through the use of the Daxor BVA-100
blood test.
“BVA is the only test that provides a unique
measure of capillary permeability via its albumin tracer, an
important insight into SARS-CoV-2 pathophysiology,” said Jan
Bakker, MD, PhD, NYU Langone Health. “With patient enrollment
complete and data analysis underway, we aim to show that the
implications of COVID as an endothelial disease utilizing this
measure along with precise measurement of total blood, red cell and
plasma volume could help guide the care of COVID-19 patients, thus
promoting better treatment of these patients.”
Jonathan Feldschuh, Chief Scientific Officer of
Daxor, stated, “Accurate volume assessment allows for
individualized care, ensuring circulatory integrity and optimal
tissue perfusion. Our BVA technology provides clinicians with
precise volume measurement superior to commonly used indirect
estimates. We believe the study results will further validate and
broaden the need for blood volume analysis to optimize treatment
and improve outcomes for patients.”
About Blood Volume Analysis and the
BVA-100®Daxor is the global leader in blood volume
measurement technology, utilized by major healthcare systems in the
United States. Blood volume analysis is an important measure of
health, surgical and medical conditions, including heart failure
and critical care, by informing treatment strategies, resulting in
significantly improved multiple measures of patient outcomes. In a
randomized control trial (RCT) published in 2011 in the journal
Shock, patients at a Level-1 trauma center ICU suffering
predominantly from ARDS/sepsis/septic shock/hemorrhagic shock who
received BVA-guided care showed significant benefits including a
66% lower mortality rate (P<0.03), reducing mortality from 24%
to 8%. Analysis showed 44% of BVA test results led to a change in
treatment strategy (P=0.004) that care teams would not have
performed absent the data from the BVA volume status measure.
