Immune Monitoring by Precision Epiontis ID®

Precision’s Epiontis ID® technology is a robust, adaptable, and cost-effective solution for immune cell profiling
Run on an automated platform for consistent, unbiased results, Epiontis ID® phenotypes cells using cell-type specific epigenetic markers. With minimal sample processing, it simplifies global trial logistics and minimizes sample to sample or site to site variability, enabling comparison across studies, locations, and timepoints. This makes it an ideal choice for immune monitoring in both early stage and advanced clinical trials.

Epiontis ID® is unique in its approach to clinical immune monitoring

  • Precise and Reproducible Results

    Excellent comparability of results within and across studies allows for highly flexible batch selection, adding additional cell types and samples to a study as needed.
    • Fully automated process and use of references and calibrators ensure highly reliable results
    • Long-term monitoring shows absence of shifts or drifts
    • This allows flexible batch selection: Measure a subset first, then extend number of subjects or assays

Epiontis ID® explained

Combining the Power of Epigenetics and the Consistency of qPCR, Epiontis ID® harnesses the unique methylation patterns specific to distinct cell types and uses a customized process and qPCR primers to amplify only those DNA regions that are demethylated in the cell type of interest. 

The quantitative nature of qPCR then allows for a precise count of the number of cells of interest in any sample. The uniformity and objectivity of qPCR results yield highly reproducible data that can be compared within and across various studies.
