Co-Diagnostics, Inc. Announces Intention to Submit Enhanced Version of COVID-19 Test to FDA for 510(k) Clearance

Published

on

The Company is withdrawing current submission based on FDA feedback related to shelf-life stability of a test component

SALT LAKE CITY, Feb. 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Co-Diagnostics, Inc. (Nasdaq-CM: CODX) (the “Company” or “Co-Dx”), a molecular diagnostics company with a unique, patented platform for the development of molecular diagnostic tests, announced today that, following a collaborative and informative dialogue with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the Company has withdrawn its 510(k) application to the FDA for its Co-Dx™ PCR COVID-19 Test on the PCR Pro™*, in favor of submitting an enhanced version of the test for 510(k) clearance.

Co-Dx is pleased with the productive engagement with the FDA related to the initial regulatory submission and with the performance of the test in clinical evaluations, including performance data and functionality of the instrument.

The decision by the Company to withdraw the submission was based on discussions with the FDA regarding the ability to detect a potential deterioration of one component of the test, related to shelf-life stability. Following dialogue with the FDA and exploring the various courses of action available, Co-Dx has determined that the best long-term solution would be to submit a version of the test that has been enhanced to address the matter raised in the 510(k) review process. 

The Company plans to submit the next iteration of the Co-Dx PCR COVID-19 test for 510(k) OTC clearance, following the collection of clinical evaluation data to support the new test’s performance. A new submission also allows the Company to incorporate more recent Co-Dx PCR platform developments into the COVID-19 test, which Co-Dx believes will also help to create greater operational and manufacturing efficiencies, such as consolidating manufacturing processes to utilize the next generation of test kits and instruments across all tests on the at-home and point-of-care platform.

The Company’s primary objective is to execute a robust development and commercialization plan for the Co-Dx PCR platform, including ongoing innovations to the PCR Pro instrument. The Co-Dx PCR COVID-19 test is expected to be followed by additional tests for tuberculosis, upper-respiratory multiplex, and a multiplex HPV test, among others.

*The Co-Dx PCR platform (including the Co-Dx PCR Home™, Co-Dx PCR Pro™, mobile app, and all associated tests and software) is subject to review by the FDA and/or other regulatory bodies and is not available for sale.

About Co-Diagnostics, Inc.:
Co-Diagnostics, Inc., a Utah corporation, is a molecular diagnostics company that develops, manufactures and markets state-of-the-art diagnostics technologies. The Company’s technologies are utilized for tests that are designed using the detection and/or analysis of nucleic acid molecules (DNA or RNA). The Company also uses its proprietary technology to design specific tests for its Co-Dx PCR at-home and point-of-care platform and to locate genetic markers for use in applications other than infectious disease.

STRONGSVILLE, Ohio, Oct. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Union Home Mortgage (UHM), a high-growth independent mortgage banking company with a world-class culture, announced today that it has been selected by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Rural Development to participate in the expanded Delegated Authority Lender Interactive Test Environment (LITE) Pilot Program for the Single Family Housing Guaranteed Loan Program, further strengthening the company’s ability to serve homebuyers in rural communities across the country. UHM is one of six lenders nationwide chosen to join the initiative, which begins on December 1, 2026.

The pilot program grants participating lenders greater authority in the loan approval and closing process, allowing qualified borrowers to move through the mortgage journey more efficiently while maintaining rigorous underwriting and compliance standards. By reducing pre-closing approval requirements from USDA, the program is designed to accelerate loan processing timelines and expand homeownership opportunities for eligible families in rural communities across the country.

Through the USDA Single Family Housing Guaranteed Loan Program, eligible low- and moderate-income borrowers can access affordable financing options, including 100% financing for homes in qualifying rural areas. According to USDA Rural Development, homebuyers can buy existing, build new, or cover the cost of rehabilitating, improving, or relocating a home with a Single Family Housing loan guarantee. As a participant in the Delegated Authority LITE Pilot Program, UHM will be positioned to deliver these benefits with greater speed and efficiency while continuing to provide personalized guidance throughout the homebuying journey.

The selection further underscores UHM’s reputation as a trusted lending partner and aligns with the lender’s focus on responsible growth, operational excellence, and expanding access to affordable mortgage solutions in communities of all sizes.
