Quant Biomarkers is a science- and data-driven diagnostics company focused on next-generation biomarker solutions in Cardio-Kidney-Metabolic (CKM) diseases, enabling earlier detection, better risk prediction, treatment monitoring, and more personalized patient care. CKM diseases, like diabetes and hypertension, affects >40% of the general population and those with kidney injury mostly died much earlier due to complications. Both clinicians and pharma lack reliable tools to identify, stratify, and manage early kidney injury patients, as well as to develop and monitor new nephroprotective therapies. We are developing a groundbreaking urinary biomarker test, RenoRisk™, that can potentially detect early kidney injury 3-6 years before traditional biomarkers, such as reduced eGFR or microalbuminuria. The test enables a timely window for interventions (like SGLT2i, GLP-1) and can also monitor treatment effect without time lag. It includes a product for automatic laboratory workflows and a product for point-of-care or home use. With proprietary lab data from RenoRisk™, we are also developing an AI-powered predictive software for more accurate kidney disease risk stratification, monitoring and management.
A passionate healthcare and pharmaceutical industry professional with over 20 years experience across medicine, biology, technology, and consulting. Ming is currently Chief Medical Officer of Quant Biomarkers and research scientist of University Hospital Basel. He previously worked and studied in Novartis, IQVIA, University of Heidelberg, Peking University, and Tsinghua University.
Cardio-kidney-metabolic diseases affect >40% of global population but lack practical tools to detect early kidney injury. Our intended urinary diagnostics can detect early subtle kidney injury 3-6 years earlier than current practice. Looking for seed fund
