OraSure submits CT/NG molecular self-test, Colli-Pee device for FDA review

OraSure (OSUR) Technologies submitted two separate applications at the end of 2025 to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for clearance of its rapid molecular self-test for Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae as well as its Colli-Pee at-home urine collection device for sexually transmitted infections. OTI’s rapid self-test for CT/NG is built on the Sherlock molecular diagnostics platform and is designed to provide results in approximately 30 minutes in a disposable, over-the-counter format. The test uses a self-collected swab, and results can be read directly on the hand-held testing device without the need for an electrical connection, enhancing flexibility and convenience. OTI estimates that testing for CT/NG represents a total addressable market of more than $1.5B. Today, the vast majority of CT/NG tests in the U.S. are processed in centralized laboratories, creating an opportunity for meaningful market expansion through the introduction of an affordable rapid self-test. OTI also submitted the Colli-Pee device, which is designed for at-home urine collection and is aligned with patient preferences for private and convenient diagnostic testing. The submission covers multiple STI indications and is being pursued in collaboration with a leading diagnostics platform provider. Receipt of clearance for the Colli-Pee device for these indications would be in addition to the existing Research-use Only product and is expected to expand access to testing and further strengthen OTI’s leadership position in novel collection devices and chemistries.
