| LOUISVILLE, Ky. and NEW YORK, /PRNewswire/ --NX Prenatal Inc., a privately held women’s healthcare molecular diagnostic company, announced today that it has entered into a strategic collaboration with Milu Labs, whose mission is to become the leading diagnostics company in Asia with a focus on maternal fetal medicine and women’s health.
“Given China’s vast population, its healthcare system wisely focuses on disease prevention and investing in early disease detection.

NX Prenatal is pleased to partner with the preeminent experts at Milu,” commented Brian D. Brohman, CEO of NX Prenatal. “Their team uniquely understands the clinical, regulatory, and commercial requirements in that region for the successful launch and delivery of our novel test to patients and physicians.” Terms of the strategic collaboration were not disclosed.
