A large-scale phase test (on a panel of chosen and volunteer patients) is setting up to observe its performance under real conditions. First sales are expected for 2020.
How will physicians and patients know about SinnoTest®?
Rheumatologists will access to a scientific and technical training on the use of this assistance tool in therapeutic orientation to promote the adoption of the SinnoTest® (via the French Society of Rheumatology, the American Congress of Rheumatology, patients associations).
What are the advantages for the patient?
The clinical research process ensures patients to benefit from innovative devices. This is particularly true for pathologies which treatments are not yet fully satisfactory.
