Intergen Genetics and Immunosis Announce Partnership to Advance RNA-Based Diagnosis for Patients with Immune Dysregulation

Intergen Genetics has announced a strategic partnership with Immunosis to develop and commercialise advanced RNA-based diagnostic technology for patients with immune dysregulation, aiming to significantly reduce time to diagnosis and enable earlier, more targeted treatment decisions.

This partnership addresses a critical unmet need by combining Immunosis’ proprietary RNAinsights platform capable of detecting immune dysfunction at a functional, molecular level with Intergen Genetics’ established clinical laboratory and R&D infrastructure, and regional delivery capabilities. Together, the companies are creating a scalable pathway to bring next-generation immune diagnostics into routine clinical practice across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA).

The first product to be commercialised under the partnership, PrimDx, has been developed by Immunosis for patients with Primary Immunodeficiency (PID). Built on the RNAinsights platform, PrimDx uses advanced transcriptomic analysis to identify patterns of immune dysregulation that may not be detectable through DNA testing alone. In clinical studies involving 180 participants, PrimDx demonstrated an overall diagnostic accuracy of 95%, highlighting its potential to improve diagnostic confidence and reduce the need for prolonged diagnostic journeys.

Under the agreement, Intergen Genetics will lead the commercialisation of PrimDx across the MENA region, with the first phase of rollout expected to begin in 2026. The partnership is designed to expand access to cutting-edge genomic and immune-based diagnostics, supporting clinicians in making faster, more informed decisions and improving outcomes for patients with rare and complex immune conditions.

“Patients with primary immunodeficiencies often experience long and challenging diagnostic journeys, sometimes lasting several years. By integrating RNA-based insights into clinical practice, we have the opportunity to transform how these conditions are identified and managed,” said Professor Dr Ceylaner. “This partnership strengthens our ability to deliver comprehensive, clinically actionable diagnostics to patients across our region.”

Dr. Simon Green, CEO of Immunosis, added: “Our RNAinsights platform was designed to uncover functional immune abnormalities that traditional approaches can miss. Partnering with Intergen Genetics allows us to translate this technology into real-world clinical impact at scale, bringing faster, more precise answers to patients and their physicians in a region where access to advanced diagnostics is rapidly evolving.”

In Türkiye, the incidence of Primary Immunodeficiency is estimated at approximately 1 in 10,000 individuals, with diagnosis often delayed by several years due to recurrent infections and limitations in existing diagnostic approaches. Earlier and more accurate detection has the potential to significantly improve patient outcomes and reduce healthcare burden.

Immunosis to present new clinical trial data demonstrating the clinical utility of PrimDx — a whole blood test for Primary Immunodeficiency.

We’re excited to share that the clinical research for our lead product, PrimDx, has been selected for two presentations at the Clinical Immunology Society (CIS) Meeting in New Orleans (May 6–9, 2026).

🧬 Our abstract, “A Whole-Blood Transcriptomic Assay, PrimDx, Reflects Cellular and Humoral Abnormalities in Primary Immunodeficiency,” has been selected for an oral presentation in the “Future is Here” session. This work will be presented by our Chief Scientific Officer, Professor Ben Cocks.

🧬 A second abstract, “Enhanced Diagnosis of Primary Immunodeficiencies Including Bronchiectasis Cases Using Transcriptomic Artificial Intelligence,” has been selected for a combined poster/oral presentation in the “Postermania” session, presented by Holly Pedersen, Clinical Research and Quality Leader.

Dr Simon Green, Immunosis CEO, said: “PrimDx is the first test to combine transcriptomic data and artificial intelligence to support the diagnosis of immune deficiencies. In our clinical study of 155 participants, PrimDx demonstrated greater than 90% overall accuracy and strong concordance with standard clinical laboratory immune system assessments.”

Professor Jo Douglas, Principal Clinical Investigator at Royal Melbourne Hospital, added: “PrimDx shows strong clinical utility and has the potential to significantly reduce time to diagnosis and improve patient outcomes in Primary Immunodeficiency.”

This clinical trial was conducted in collaboration with leading teams at:

  • Royal Melbourne Hospital
  • The Royal Children’s Hospital
  • Walter and Eliza Hall Institute

We look forward to sharing these results with the clinical immunology community at #CIS2026.

Immunosis presents new data at the 2025 Clinical Immunology Society Meeting in Philadelphia 

Immunosis presented our new data demonstrating clinical proof of concept to identify patients at risk of Primary Immunodeficiency.

In a clinical study involving 133 participants, our lead product, PrimDx, demonstrated an overall accuracy of 95% for patients with antibody deficiency. 

The technology, developed by Immunosis, uses unique gene expression signatures and artificial intelligence algorithms to diagnose patients with diseases caused by defects in the immune system. 

Dr. Simon Green, the CEO of Immunosis said "PrimDx offers a paradigm shift for the diagosis and monitoring of patients with immune deficiencies and is designed to improve the lives of patients"

Recruitment Open for the IMM003 Trial – A Genomic Study on Bronchiectasis and Primary Immunodeficiency

We’re thrilled to announce that recruitment is now open for the IMM003 Trial: A Pilot Genomic Analysis of Patients with Bronchiectasis and Primary Immunodeficiency (PID).

This study aims to develop an advanced diagnostic method using genetic information to improve the detection of PID. If successful, this test could lead to faster diagnoses, enabling patients to access life-changing treatments and therapies sooner.

Many patients with PID develop bronchiectasis, and this research could significantly enhance our ability to distinguish PID among those with lung disease.

We’re proud to collaborate once again with the incredible teams at the Royal Melbourne Hospital and WEHI to drive this important work forward.
For more information, reach out to any of our Immunosis team.
