The biomarker that mtm uses in its screening and diagnostic products is the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p16INK4a, the over-expression of which has been shown to be a highly specific marker of the onset of cervical cancer. It is crucial to a positive prognosis that cervical cancer is identified and treated as early as possible and p16INK4a as a biomarker makes such early accurate diagnoses possible.
