Novigenix and Philips Sign Technology License Agreement for Prostate Cancer Precision Oncology Products

New precision solutions may be accessible on Philips IntelliSpace Precision Medicine Platform

LAUSANNE, SWITZERLAND / ACCESSWIRE / March 9, 2022 / Novigenix SA, a leading Swiss biotech that develops and commercializes Immuno-Transcriptomic precision oncology solutions, today announced a Technology License Agreement with Royal Philips (‘Philips’) for development of new tissue biopsy Prostate cancer (PCa) Immuno-Transcriptomic tests to improve prostate cancer patient outcomes.

Through this agreement Novigenix has access to Philips Intellectual Property on tumor-derived Immuno-Transcriptomic signatures for development and launch of commercial products. The parties anticipate that PCa products based on tumor ImmunoTranscriptomics will provide actionable information to help oncologists with treatment decisions of high-risk patients. At local recurrence diagnosis alone, over 100,000 patients per year could benefit from such tests worldwide.

Dr. Alain Herard, cancer certified Urologist at Polyclinic of Reims – Bezannes, commented “Today ~50% of patients experiencing a local recurrence will progress to metastatic disease despite treatment. On the other hand some patients with less aggressive tumors are overtreated. A test that effectively stratifies patients with high and low risk of recurrence can personalize therapy and would be highly beneficial.”

“Previously we have demonstrated the value of our Liquid Immuno-Transcriptomic Sequencing Platform (LITOseek) for development of precision oncology solutions in field of Colorectal and Bladder cancer.” said Dr. Brian Hashemi, Executive Chairman of Novigenix. “Through this agreement with Philips we look forward to further supporting oncologists with new precision medicine solutions that can help improve prostate cancer patient outcomes”.
