Robert Phelps, CEO of Bar Harbor BioTechnology, says the company has already started work on similar tests for Alzheimer's disease, Prostate Cancer and Lupus. He stated that the company has contacted the FDA seeking guidance regarding the manufacturing of these new tests and plans to work closely with the agency as new regulations are being developed for the genetic testing market. For now the company is reviewing its financial options to fund the new division which has a long term goal of creating a federally certified laboratory to conduct these tests for point of care physicians.
