Zo aan je opmerking te zien heb je geen aandelen MDX en heb je er dus belang bij dat het naar beneden gaat ?
Uiteraard wil je ze wel graag kopen , maar dan op 3 . Succes

Denk toch na al het goede nieuws hopelijk op de bodem te zitten, denk dat we voor de stijging van mdx de kwartaalcijfers moeten afwachten.geloof er echt

MDxHealth's ConfirmMDx Genes Identify Prostate Cancer Aggressiveness in Diagnostic Biopsies

Data Presented at the 2014 European Association of Urology Meeting

IRVINE, CA, and HERSTAL, BELGIUM - October 10, 2014 - MDxHealth SA (NYSE Euronext: MDXH), a leading molecular diagnostic company that develops and commercializes epigenetic tests to improve the diagnosis and treatment of cancer patients, today announced positive data from an important study confirming the ability of the ConfirmMDx® genes to identify prostate cancer (PCa) aggressiveness in diagnostic biopsies. The data, presented at the European Association of Urology, Section Urological Research (ESUR) meeting in Glasgow, UK (October 9-11, 2014), confirmed that the epigenetic profile of ConfirmMDx genes generated by the test is strongly correlated with established risk stratification metrics, such as Gleason Score (GS) and the NCCN (National Comprehensive Cancer Network) risk categories.

"These data demonstrate that ConfirmMDx for Prostate Cancer not only provides important diagnostic information to help guide the decision on repeat biopsy, but that the genes may also deliver significant prognostic value, potentially determining whether a man has an aggressive or non-aggressive form of prostate cancer," noted Sandra M. Gaston PhD, Director of Urological Research at New England Baptist Hospital and Director of the Molecular Biomarkers Research Laboratory in the Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine at Tufts Medical Center in Boston Massachusetts. "This study suggests that the epigenetic markers used in the ConfirmMDx test could have an expanded role in stratifying prostate biopsy patients by providing information that cannot be obtained from the histological examination of the tissue. The current ConfirmMDx test is highly sensitive for DNA hypermethylation of GSTP1, APC and RASSF1 in the tissue surrounding a prostate cancer. For men who have a histological diagnosis of "no cancer," a negative result with the current ConfirmMDx test predicts that a subsequent biopsy will also be negative, identifying the majority of men who may avoid repeat biopsy. In this study, we found that hypermethylation of these markers is more intense in the tissue surrounding high grade prostate cancer potentially providing additional insights into the clinical significance of a potential undetected prostate cancer on methylation-positive patients."

In this study, hypermethylation levels of the three ConfirmMDx genes (GSTP1, APC and RASSF1) were evaluated on biopsies from 102 men with various GS (ranging from 3+3 to 4+4) and NCCN (ranging from very low to high) risk profiles. All men had undergone a 12-core prostate biopsy under routine clinical practice resulting in their PCa diagnosis. No epigenetic aberrations for any of these three genes were found in 20 control patients, who had non-cancer histology in all of their 12-core biopsy specimens.

- For 46 men, the highest observed GS was 6, classifying these men as potential candidates for active surveillance; however, 17% (n=8) of them exhibited an epigenetic profile that is indicative of higher-grade disease.

- Of the nine men with GS 4+3 or higher, 88% (n=8) had many epigenetic aberrations, in addition to 17 out of 27 (63%) of the men with GS 3+4.

- When epigenetic profiling was compared to NCCN risk categories, similar results were obtained, identifying 79% (31 out of 39) of the men with intermediate or high NCCN risk profiles. Roughly one third of the patients in the very low and low risk categories showed similar epigenetic profiles.

In conclusion, epigenetic profiling using the ConfirmMDx test on individual biopsy cores could help identify patients harboring aggressive prostate cancer, aiding patient management.

"This study clearly demonstrates the power of ConfirmMDx to help guide management decisions for men who may harbor aggressive disease, and illustrates that our epigenetic genes clearly add prognostic information which correlates with the Gleason Score and NCCN risk categories," stated Dr. Jan Groen, CEO of MDxHealth.

About ConfirmMDx for Prostate Cancer

Over 975,000 American men are diagnosed with a negative prostate biopsy each year; however approximately 25-35% of those men receive false-negative results. Under the current standard of care, prostate biopsy procedures consisting of 10-12 needle biopsy cores only sample approximately 1% of a man's prostate. This approach leaves men at risk of occult cancer, leading to a high rate of repeat biopsies, often on cancer-free men. There is an unmet medical need for a clinically effective diagnostic test to address this dilemma. ConfirmMDx for Prostate Cancer is able to detect an epigenetic field effect or 'halo' associated with the cancerization process at the DNA level. This "halo" around a cancer lesion can be present despite cells having a normal appearance under the microscope. Thus ConfirmMDx for Prostate Cancer aids urologists in identifying truly negative men who may forego an unnecessary repeat biopsy procedure. Performance of the proprietary ConfirmMDx genes and technology has been published in 45 studies on over 5,000 patients tested. The ConfirmMDx test has qualified for Medicare reimbursement as of November 3, 2014 and is also available to more than 152 million insured lives via private health insurance plans.

Lekker bioscience...

en weer een goed bericht vanuit het kamp van MDX!
Ik kijk met vertrouwen uit naar de update, hoewel dit bericht natuurlijk niets zegt over de gerealiseerde afzet/omzet/resultaat..

Laat dat geklooi met de waarde van het aandeel gewoon aan me voorbijgaan...
zqal vandaag nog wel verder omlaag worden gebracht en verwacht zelfs nog een verdere daling voor de update, zodat de koers bij de update nog een beetje in de hand te houden is..

Nu pas bekend en persbericht aan de grote media + presentatie 9-11 oktober. Meer data bekendheid .

Of het impact heeft op de koers ? We zijn op alle positieve berichten van de laatste tijd nog geen stap opgeschoten tot nu toe .wordt tijd voor een inhaalslag .

Als CMS dit besloeten heeft, waarom geen PB van MDx?
Hoeveel gaan ze per test uitkeren?

@vv:
"Exact Sciences is still awaiting a preliminary pricing determination from CMS."

Ik denk dat persbericht MDX hierover snel moet volgen. Misschien wachten ze nog op pricing decision.

En zelfs met goed nieuws staan we weer in de -min.
Wat is er toch voor nodig om deze trein in beweging te krijgen?

Een zeer mooie dag voor MDXH. Zoals hier al aangehaald is er enerzijds het bericht dat MDXH vandaag bekendmaakte.

Anderzijds is er nog veel belangrijker nieuws vanuit de VS en Exact Sciences. We wisten al dat de techniek van MDXH verwerkt werd in de Cologuard - test en dat die test de status "FDA - approved" kreeg. We wisten ook al dat MDXH royalties zal ontvangen op de verkoop van die tests. Het enige wat nog een vraagteken was om uit te maken of die test een al dan niet een megaverkoopssucces zou wou worden is het feit hoeveel CSM (= Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services) zou coveren. De test kost immers normaal 599 dollar. Andere reeds bestaande tests (maar niet zo adequate en totaal op een andere techniek gebaseerd) kosten in de VS rond de 30 dollar. Er werd gesteld dat er minstens een covering van 300 dollar zou nodig zijn opdat de test een verkoopssucces zou worden en Exact winst zou kunnen maken op de tests.

Wel, bij deze:
- Bericht van Exact Sciences: Exact Sciences Announces Final National Coverage Determination for Cologuard®
investor.exactsciences.com/releasedet...

- Het volledig rapport:Decision Memo for Screening for Colorectal Cancer - Stool DNA Testing (CAG-00440N)
www.cms.gov/medicare-coverage-databas...

CONCLUSIE:
After considering public comments and consulting with appropriate organizations, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has determined that the evidence is sufficient to cover CologuardTM – a multitarget stool DNA test – as a colorectal cancer screening test for asymptomatic, average risk beneficiaries, aged 50 to 85 years.

Therefore, Medicare Part B will cover the CologuardTM test once every three years for beneficiaries who meet all of the following criteria:

Age 50 to 85 years,
Asymptomatic (no signs or symptoms of colorectal disease including but not limited to lower gastrointestinal pain, blood in stool, positive guaiac fecal occult blood test or fecal immunochemical test), and
At average risk of developing colorectal cancer (no personal history of adenomatous polyps, colorectal cancer, or inflammatory bowel disease, including Crohn’s Disease and ulcerative colitis; no family history of colorectal cancers or adenomatous polyps, familial adenomatous polyposis, or hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer).

All other screening stool DNA tests not otherwise specified above remain nationally non-covered.
BELANGRIJK:
CMS communiceerde officieel nog geen definitief cijfer mee aan Exact Sciences aangaande de covering. Maar het cijfer is wel uit het rapport te filteren:
Code G0464 (Colorectal cancer screening; stool-based DNA and fecal occult hemoglobin (e.g.,
KRAS, NDRG4 and BMP3)).
Industry Recommendation: Crosswalk to Code 81315 (PML/RARalpha, (t(15;17)),
(promyelocytic leukemia/retinoic acid receptor alpha) (eg, promyelocytic leukemia)
translocation analysis; common breakpoints (eg, intron 3 and intron 6), qualitative or
quantitative) PLUS Code 81275 (Kras (v-Ki-ras2 Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene) (eg,
carcinoma) gene analysis, variants in codons 12 and 13) PLUS Code 82274 (Blood, occult, by
fecal hemoglobin determination by immunoassay, qualitative, feces, 1-3 simultaneous
determinations).
CMS Recommendation: Crosswalk to Code 81315 PLUS Code 81275 PLUS Code 82274.
81315= $282.83
81275= $197.48
82274= $ 21.70 or
$502.01
(zie ook twitter: Adam Feuerstein)

Alles hindernissen zijn dus overwonnen door Exact Sciences. De verkopen gaan los vanaf nu en MDXH kan de (miljoenen) royalties beginnen tellen. Ben nu ook benieuwd of het officiële percentage wordt bekendgemaakt (3%?). De huidige koers van MDXH, daar lachen we volgens mij binnenkort mee.

Btw, ik postte dit ook op beursig.
