November 2–8 is National Pain Awareness Week, a time to recognize the millions of people living with chronic pain from conditions like rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA).

At Augurex, we stand with patients and clinicians working toward earlier diagnosis and better management of inflammation-driven pain. Through innovative biomarker-based diagnostics such as JOINTstat® for RA and SPINEstat® for axSpA, we help enable earlier detection of disease activity to support timely treatment decisions before pain leads to lasting joint or spinal damage.

Together, we can raise awareness, improve understanding, and help drive earlier, more targeted care for those affected by chronic inflammatory pain.

We’re excited to see RheumNow highlight Dr. Atul Deodhar’s perspective on biomarker discovery in axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) in their coverage from ACR Convergence 2025 in Chicago.

In this segment, Dr. Deodhar reviews Augurex’s new data presentations (one oral and two posters), which showcased promising data on the Anti-14-3-3eta Multiplex Immunoassay Test improving early detection and aiding in more accurate clinical decision-making in patients with axSpA. In particular, the data highlighted the Anti-14-3-3eta Multiplex Test complementing HLA-B27 and CRP, helping physicians better differentiate axSpA from mechanical back pain to support earlier, more confident diagnosis.

RheumNow’s on-the-ground coverage at the ACR 2025 conference featured Augurex’s new data on the Anti-14-3-3eta Multiplex Immunoassay Test in axSpA and mechanical back pain patients.

In the segment, Dr. Akhil Sood highlights that “the biomarker can distinguish who has axSpA and who does not, and this is a promising step toward a simple diagnostic tool.”

This recognition underscores the growing clinical relevance of SPINEstat® (Anti-14-3-3eta Multiplex Immunoassay Test) in supporting earlier and more accurate clinical decision-making in axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA).

We are pleased to share that the U.S. FDA has granted Breakthrough Device Designation for SPINEstat® (14-3-3eta Autoantibody Multiplex Immunoassay Test) - Augurex’s first-in-class blood test to aid in the diagnosis of patients with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA).

Breakthrough designation recognizes the significant unmet need in early and accurate axSpA diagnosis, where patients often face long delays before receiving appropriate care.

SPINEstat® detects autoantibodies to the 14-3-3eta protein. In combination with clinical findings, signs and symptoms, SPINEstat® may aid in the differentiation of patients with axSpA from those with mechanical back pain, to support earlier, more confident clinical decision making and diagnosis.

Patient advocacy is vital in improving awareness, education, and care for those living with rheumatoid arthritis.

We’re proud to partner with AiArthritis as they spotlight the importance of 14-3-3eta testing through their new patient education blog and updated RA diagnosis page, giving patients trusted information that empowers them to play an active role in their care.

This patient-focused resource highlights how the 14-3-3eta blood test can:
✅ Detect RA earlier, even in patients who test negative for RF and anti-CCP
✅ Identify patients at higher risk of joint damage
✅ Track response to treatment and support remission planning

In addition, AiArthritis has updated their RA diagnosis page to include 14-3-3eta, providing patients with even more resources on how this marker can support diagnosis and ongoing care.

September is Chronic Pain Awareness Month. For 1 in 5 people in the US and Canada, pain is not temporary. It follows them to work, interrupts sleep, and affects emotional health.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) are two conditions where pain can be intense and unrelenting. Yet with earlier diagnosis and treatment, lives can change.

At Augurex, we focus on giving patients and physicians answers sooner through biomarker-based testing. Tools like JOINTstat® and SPINEstat® help detect disease earlier and support treatment decisions that ease the burden of pain.

This month, we stand alongside those living with chronic pain and reaffirm our commitment to advancing solutions that improve quality of life.
