Amprion Announces Strategic Growth Initiatives, Expanding Access to Breakthrough SAAmplify Test

Company Launches New Website, Scales Test Access Alongside Mayo Clinic, & Looks to Expand International Presence

SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Amprion, a global leader advancing diagnosis of neurodegenerative disorders through seed amplification testing, has announced several strategic growth initiatives to broaden access to its SAAmplify-ɑSYN test. These initiatives include a comprehensive website refresh, expanded test availability via Mayo Clinic’s network of hospitals and clinical sites, and ongoing preparations for international expansion. As part of its continuing growth and commitment to advancing early and accurate diagnosis, Amprion will showcase its latest developments and momentum at the Alzheimer’s Association International Conference (AAIC), July 27-31, 2025, in Toronto, Canada. Attendees can connect with the Amprion team at booth #616.

Following its recent collaboration with Mayo Clinic Laboratories, Amprion launched a newly redesigned website to meet the growing demand for its SAAmplify-ɑSYN test, which aids in the diagnosis of synucleinopathies. The breakthrough test can detect the presence of aggregates of alpha-synuclein protein, the underlying pathology of Parkinson's disease (PD), Lewy body dementia (LBD), multiple system atrophy (MSA), and Alzheimer’s disease with Lewy bodies (AD + DLB), in cerebrospinal fluid. Launched earlier this month, the updated website is designed to provide patients, clinicians, and industry leaders with streamlined access to Amprion’s latest research, information, and more.

“As awareness and demand for our SAAmplify-ɑSYN test grow, we’re working to ensure clinicians, researchers, and patients have better access to the tools and information they need,” said Dr. Russ Lebovitz, CEO and co-founder of Amprion. “Our refreshed website and expanding partnerships are steps toward that goal, and we look forward to connecting with the global neuroscience community at AAIC.”

Due to this surge in awareness, Amprion is actively exploring international expansion opportunities, with plans to bring its test to European and global markets. Initial announcements regarding country-specific launch strategies are expected in Q4 2025.

About SAAmplify-ɑSYN (formerly SYNTap®)

Amprion's SAAmplify-ɑSYN test is a first-in-class-qualitative Laboratory Developed Test (LDT) and the only seed amplification assay available to aid the diagnosis of synucleinopathies such as Parkinson's disease (PD), Lewy body dementia (LBD/DLB), and Alzheimer's disease (AD) with Lewy body co-pathology. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted Amprion a Breakthrough Device Designation in 2019 for use of the test as an aid in the diagnosis of PD. The test became commercially available in the US in 2021.
