“We made considerable progress across the
business during 2024, increasing our global installed base of T2Dx
Instruments, and generating record sales for our sepsis test
panels, including record U.S. sales of the T2Bacteria Panel and
record international sales of the T2Resistance Panel. We entered
into an exclusive U.S. commercial distribution agreement with
Cardinal Health during the fourth quarter, which we expect to be a
commercial growth driver, and we are training Cardinal’s sales team
the week of January 6, 2025,” stated John Sperzel, Chairman
and CEO of T2 Biosystems. “We are excited by the progress on
our product pipeline in 2024, which included FDA 510(k) clearances
for the expanded T2Bacteria Panel to include the detection of
Acinetobacter baumannii, and the expanded claim for the T2Candida
Panel to include pediatric testing. Additionally, we have three
pipeline products that have received FDA Breakthrough Device
designation, including the U.S. T2Resistance Panel, the T2Lyme
Panel, and the Candida auris test. We believe we are
well-positioned heading into 2025, and we expect to accelerate our
product sales, enhance our operations, and continue to advance our
new product pipeline.”
