Abusy month in product launches included a new CE-marked IVD version of Invivoscribe Technologies' LeukoStrat CDx FLT3 Mutation Assay, which the company describes as the first companion diagnostic for acute myeloid leukemia. The assay also secured FDA approval earlier this year.

Helix had a busy month. In addition to partnering with Illumina Accelerator to provide support services to consumer genetics startups (See Diagnostic Deals on page X for the details), the personal genomics firm launched a new online marketplace offering customers DNA sequence interpretations for ancestry, fitness, nutrition and other applications. The new service leverages mobile apps developed by partner companies Admera, Azumio, DNAFit, DotOne, EverlyWell, Exploragen, Genome Medical, Insitome, Intelliseq, Lose It!, National Geographic, Sema4, Titanovo and Vinome.

Here's a rundown of the other key diagnostic product launches from late July through mid-August.
