About SciBase and Nevisense
SciBase AB is a Swedish medical technology company, headquartered in Stockholm that has developed and sells a unique point-of-care device for evaluation of skin disorders such as skin cancer and atopic dermatitis. Its first product, Nevisense, helps doctors to detect malignant melanoma, the most dangerous type of skin cancer. Further development has led to Nevisense also being used as a tool to assess the skin barrier and inflammation. SciBase was founded by Stig Ollmar, Associate Professor at The Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden. Nevisense is based on substantial research and has achieved excellent results in the largest clinical study ever conducted on the detection of malignant melanoma. Nevisense is CE marked in Europe, has TGA approval in Australia and an FDA approval (PMA) in the United States. Nevisense is based on a method called Electrical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS), which uses the varying electrical properties of human tissue to categorize cellular structures and thereby detect malignancies and abnormalities. SciBase is listed on First North Growth Market ("SCIB"). Further information is available at www.scibase.com.SciBase’s US Partner study shows COVID-19 delaying skin cancer diagnosis
February 25, 2021A new study published in the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology (JAAD) shows that COVID-19 has materially delayed diagnosis for patients with skin cancer and a substantial backlog of undiagnosed cases remain. Rates of skin cancer detection in the study were down by 43-51%. These delays in initial diagnosis and treatment may lead to skin cancers presenting at more advanced stages, with potential increased morbidity and worse melanoma survival outcomes.
The study was based on data collected by the Advanced Dermatology and Cosmetic Surgery (ADCS) group of practices in the US. ADCS is a key partner for SciBase in the US, though SciBase was not directly involved in the study.
"This study shows that COVID-19 has had a significant negative effect on the rates of skin cancer diagnosis, primarily due to a reluctance from patients to visit clinics. This effect has been seen in Europe as well. We expect an increased focus on skin cancer and diagnosis once effects of the pandemic have subsided, and this represents a likely increase in demand for products such as ours", says Simon Grant, CEO of SciBase.
