“We’re very excited to be making our official debut at the Greater New York Dental Meeting,” said Stephen M. Swanick, CEO and founder of PeriRx, LLC. “We’re using a variety of ways to engage with members of the dental community and tell them about SaliMark OSCC, the most clinically advanced salivary test for oral cancer, which is scheduled to ship before the end of the year.”
Development of this simple-to-use, painless, and accurate test was based on the strong scientific foundation of NIH-funded research with initial discovery and prevalidation work conducted by Dr. David Wong of the University of California at Los Angeles. What’s more, more than a decade of National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research and National Institute of Health-supported research make SaliMark OSCC the world’s most scientifically validated molecular DNA biomarker test for oral squamous cell carcinoma.
In addition to exhibiting at booth No. 1506, PeriRx will be introducing SaliMark OSCC in the following ways:
• Free CE course: “Salivary Testing for Early Diagnosis of Oral Cancer" (course code No. 3240) will be given on Sunday, November 30th, 2014, at 9 a.m. Attendees will receive $15 lunch voucher at the end of the course that can be used at any Javits restaurant.

About SaliMark OSCC
Development of this simple-to-use, painless, and noninvasive test was based on the strong scientific foundation of NIH-funded research with initial discovery and prevalidation work conducted by Dr. David Wong of the University of California at Los Angeles. The SaliMark OSCC test also has the distinction of being the first of its kind assay in the world to aid in the identification and early detection of oral lesions at the highest risk for cancer. Recently, the SaliMark OSCC test underwent a PRoBE (prospective-specimen-collection, retrospective-blinded-evaluation) design study, which is the most rigorous biomarker validation available. In addition, PeriRx successfully completed a validation of the mRNA markers at the University of Michigan, Michigan State University, and the St. Johns Providence Health System in Detroit.
