Myriad Genetics and Lumea Collaborate to Enhance Access to the Prolaris Biomarker and MyRisk Hereditary Cancer Tests through BxLink Integration

SALT LAKE CITY, Feb. 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Myriad Genetics, Inc. (NASDAQ: MYGN), a leader in genetic and genomic tumor testing and precision medicine, and Lumea Inc., a leader in digital pathology solutions, have signed an agreement to integrate Myriad’s advanced molecular diagnostic tests — Prolaris^® Prostate Cancer Test and MyRisk^® Hereditary Cancer Test – into Lumea’s digital pathology platform, BxLink™.

This collaboration will streamline the ordering and delivery of molecular tests, enabling healthcare providers to electronically order and track Prolaris and MyRisk tests, with results delivered directly within BxLink’s intuitive platform. By replacing manual processes, the integration will reduce errors and aims to deliver molecular testing results to clinicians in an average of under 10 days after specimen collection.

“Clinicians need ready access to molecular diagnostic tools at the point of care to improve cancer outcomes,” said George Daneker, Jr., MD, President and Chief Clinical Officer, Oncology, Myriad Genetics. “Prolaris — included in the recent NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology for Prostate Cancer (NCCN Guidelines^®)ⁱ — quantifies prostate cancer aggressiveness to guide treatment decisions at cancer diagnosis, while MyRisk evaluates 48 genes associated with hereditary cancer risk to guide treatments and identify risks to family members. This collaboration with Lumea ensures precision-based insights are delivered in a timely fashion when they’re needed most to empower patients and providers to make informed decisions.”

“This integration simplifies workflows for physicians,” said Jim Pack, CEO of Lumea. “With fewer clicks and reduced data entry, clinicians can seamlessly order Myriad’s advanced tests, access actionable results within the platform they trust, and deliver personalized care. These insights can unlock advanced treatment options, targeted therapies, and clinical trials, driving improved patient outcomes.”
