NEW YORK (360Dx) – Spanish diagnostics firm Biohope is about to commence a large-scale study of its flagship Immunobiogram in vitro diagnostic for determining the best immunosuppressive treatment for patients undergoing kidney transplantation.

The €3.8 million ($4.5 million) project, called Transbio, has been funded through the EU's Horizon 2020 program and will run through 2019. Biohope recently completed a pilot phase of the two-year study in partnership with two Spanish hospitals that yielded positive results.
