On February 7, 2001, the company applied for trademark registration of the phrases "We Will See the Cure" and "20/20" for use with "multi-replica blotting kits comprised primarily of laboratory reagents and proprietary membranes sold as a unit for scientific or research use in the analysis of proteins."[\[4\]](#fn4)[\[5\]](#fn5)

In the second half of 2018, the company began focusing on the commercialization of OneTest, "a multi-[cancer](https://www.whiteroseintelligence.com/Cancer) test and algorithm to screen for multiple cancer types from a single blood sample."[\[3:3\]](#fn3)
