IDs are a wide range of conditions driven by Chronic Inflammatory (CI) processes. They encompass most chronic Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) such as cardiovascular conditions, cancers, diabetes, arthritis, neurodegenerative disorders, and bowel diseases. Chronic Inflammatory Diseases (CIDs) are a major cause of sickness and premature death globally.

All these conditions are characterised by CI processes and there are no reliable, prognostic biomarkers to measure it.

Our Story
Avenna was spun out from Ludger in 2017 to translate a promising glycomic research programme into practical and affordable diagnostic tools for inflammatory diseases. We are now working with scientists, clinicians, academics and patient groups, to further develop this assay into precision medicine clinical biomarkers and tests to enable early detection and treatment personalisation for inflammatory diseases.
Vision
To become a world leader in development of personalised precision healthcare solutions for inflammatory diseases. These solutions will enable early detection, treatment personalisation for individuals living with inflammatory conditions, will increase their healthspan and reduce healthcare costs.
Mission
Avenna translates most promising research grade technologies into practical, affordable, and accessible clinical tools to enable precision medicine approach to treat inflammatory diseases.
Our midterm goal is to further develop and commercialise, blood glycomic biomarkers for inflammatory bowel, brain, and skin diseases.
Research
Our R&D programmes focus on the development of prognostic and predictive glycomic blood biomarkers and Immunofrailty Model.
These innovations will enable early detection and treatment personalisation for Inflammatory conditions in clinical practice.
