We are pioneering theranostics that transform how bacterial infections are diagnosed and treated. With a focus on precision, our goal is to provide healthcare professionals with the tools to combat infections like Staphylococcus aureus (SA) at the source.
🌍 Improving infection outcomes through science-driven innovation
Sabiad was founded in 2022 as a spin-off from the University Medical Center Groningen (UMCG), building on over 20 years of research led by Prof. Jan Maarten van Dijl.
Our journey began with a simple yet powerful concept: to combine diagnostics and therapy into one seamless process to more effectively treat bacterial infections. Today, this idea has grown into a company committed to revolutionizing infection management.
“To become the global leader in non-oncology theranostics, transforming the way bacterial infections are diagnosed and treated, setting new standards in precision healthcare, and reducing the global burden of antimicrobial resistance.”
We envision a future where healthcare professionals have the real-time insights and tools they need to fight bacterial infections effectively, minimizing the need for antibiotics and preventing complications like biofilm formation. Our work is driven by the belief that infection management can be both accurate and patient-specific.
Our theranostic technology integrates diagnostics and therapeutics, representing a breakthrough in personalized care, especially for infections linked to surgical procedures such as Total Joint Replacements (TJR) and Fracture-Related Infections (FRI).
Surgical infections, particularly those caused by Staphylococcus aureus, are notoriously difficult to treat. Our patented StaphMark platform is designed to meet this challenge head-on. It uses the 1D9 antibody to pinpoint and visualize infections and deliver targeted treatment in real time, whether in the operating room or via point-of-care diagnostics.
We are pushing the boundaries of bacterial theranostics to minimize the overuse of antibiotics and improve recovery for patients worldwide.
& Mission! We are on a mission to deliver innovative theranostic solutions that improve the diagnosis and treatment of bacterial infections, reduce healthcare costs, and combat antimicrobial resistance. We believe in personalized, data-driven care that adapts to each patient's needs.
Everything we do is driven by accuracy, from diagnostics to treatment, ensuring we get it right the first time.
Our success depends on working closely with healthcare providers, researchers, and partners to bring our solutions to those who need them.
We are committed to maintaining the highest standards of ethics and transparency, ensuring that our solutions are safe and effective.
The well-being of patients is our top priority, with every solution aimed at improving their quality of life and care.
We push boundaries to create breakthrough technologies that make bacterial infection management faster, more effective, and less dependent on antibiotics.
