Sales of CyPath® Lung tests, onboarding of pathology practices ahead of forecasts

bioAffinity Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: BIAF; BIAFW), a biotechnology company focused on the need for noninvasive tests for the detection of early-stage cancer and lung disease, today reported 139% growth in the number of pulmonology practices and physicians offering CyPath® Lung to patients since Jan. 1, 2024. CyPath® Lung is a noninvasive test to detect early-stage lung cancer.

CyPath® Lung sales are ahead of Q1 2024 targets for the previously announced test market launch in Texas and have expanded to include pulmonology practices in eight other states, including New Jersey, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan, North Carolina, California, Florida and Arizona. The earlier-than-expected expansion outside of Texas is primarily due to physician-to-physician word of mouth. In May, the Company increased the sales forecast provided in the 2023 Annual Report by 35%. The lung cancer diagnostics market is projected to reach $4.7 billion by 2030, according to ReportLinker’s industry analysis.

“As more physicians learn about CyPath® Lung and incorporate it into their practices, enthusiasm and excitement about the test has grown exponentially. The high sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of CyPath® Lung shown in our most recent clinical trial benefit both physicians and patients by providing actionable results and a clearer path forward for the early detection of lung cancer,” bioAffinity Technologies’ President and CEO Maria Zannes said. “Our marketing efforts have been very successful in demonstrating the value of CyPath® Lung to physicians. We continue to onboard practices in both Texas and beyond, fortifying the foundation for our national expansion.”

Pulmonologists and other lung health specialists understand the critically important role of screening and early diagnosis in improving outcomes for those diagnosed with lung cancer and providing peace of mind for individuals at elevated risk of developing the disease. By combining the simplicity of sputum as a biological sample with advanced flow cytometry and automated analysis, CyPath® Lung gives physicians a valuable diagnostic tool for patients with indeterminate pulmonary nodules. bioAffinity Technologies' commitment to noninvasive cancer detection is poised to reshape the landscape of lung health management by increasing early detection and treatment.

About CyPath® Lung

CyPath® Lung uses advanced flow cytometry and artificial intelligence (AI) to identify cell populations in patient sputum that indicate malignancy. Automated data analysis helps determine if cancer is present or if the patient is cancer-free. CyPath® Lung incorporates a fluorescent porphyrin, TCPP, that is preferentially taken up by cancer and cancer-related cells. Clinical study results demonstrated that CyPath® Lung had 92% sensitivity, 87% specificity and 88% accuracy in detecting lung cancer in patients at high risk for the disease who had small lung nodules less than 20 millimeters. Diagnosing and treating early-stage cancer can improve outcomes and increase patient survival.
