What believers are saying

  • $43M Series D funding from AMR Action Fund supports FDA 510(k) submission.
  • $40.9M BARDA contract accelerates pneumonia and bacteremia panel development.
  • Over 1,000 samples enrolled in multi-center trial for Q3 regulatory push.

What critics are saying

  • Accelerate Diagnostics' PhenoVue captures market with FDA-cleared 3-hour AST.
  • BioFire's FilmArray dominates ICU syndromic testing, sidelining single-pathogen focus.
  • Clinical trial failure by mid-2026 exhausts Series D runway, halting launch.

What makes Pattern Bioscience unique

  • Digital CultureTM enables culture-free phenotypic ID/AST in four hours.
  • Single-cell analysis captures all resistance mechanisms unlike genotypic tests.
  • Pneumonia ID/AST Panel targets critically ill patients with FDA Breakthrough Designation.
