London, UK and Phoenix, AZ (July 17, 2023)- AccuStem Sciences, Inc. (OTCQB: ACUT), a clinical stage diagnostics company dedicated to improving outcomes for patients with cancer, and EmeritusDX, a rapidly growing cancer diagnostics and information company, today announced the execution of an agreement wherein both companies will jointly manage scientific operations and R&D for AccuStem’s product portfolio.

Initial plans as part of the collaboration will be to immediately focus on furthering the validation of AccuStem’s core offering, StemPrintER, for patients with breast cancer. The proprietary 20-gene test stratifies patients according to their recurrence risk and is intended to measure the “stemness” of tumors, or how much they behave like stem cells, which may indicate the likelihood of cancer progression and response to standard treatment modalities. While StemPrintER has been shown to outperform the current market leader for risk of recurrence testing in patients with breast cancer, OncotypeDX (Exact Sciences, NASDAQ: EXAS), this alliance will further establish the utility of the assay in addressing unanswered clinical questions such as identifying which surgical intervention will improve outcomes.

“We are excited about the opportunity to partner with EmeritusDX,” said Wendy Blosser, CEO of AccuStem. “Their expertise in the diagnostic space in combination with their proven track record of success is exactly what AccuStem has been looking for in a lab partner to take StemPrintER through the validation and reimbursement process for breast cancer and other indications.”

EmeritusDX, a pioneering cancer diagnostics and information company, continues its commitment to transforming cancer care through personalized medicine. Operating from their state-of-the-art facilities in California and Pennsylvania, EmeritusDX will leverage their top-tier molecular laboratories and a seasoned research and development team to validate the StemPrintER assay. This crucial collaboration with AccuStem is aimed at showcasing the clinical utility of the test while advancing precision medicine. By joining forces, EmeritusDX and AccuStem strive to provide healthcare providers with actionable insights that drive improved patient outcomes, empowering them with the tools they need to make informed decisions in the fight against cancer.

“AccuStem’s proprietary technology evaluating tumor stemness offers endless opportunities for healthcare providers to address a variety of clinically unmet needs for cancer patients,” said Robert Embree, CEO of EmeritusDX. “StemPrintER complements our existing product pipeline by addressing additional questions along the patient care continuum beyond what we are currently doing today.”

The leadership teams believe this strategic partnership will position StemPrintER for an expeditious launch in breast cancer while bolstering their research and development efforts to expand its indication to other tumor types in the future.
