Mainz Biomed Presents Groundbreaking Results of ColoFuture Study
October 18 2023 - 7:01AM
Mainz Biomed N.V. (NASDAQ:MYNZ) (“Mainz Biomed” or the “Company”),
a molecular genetics diagnostic company specializing in the early
detection of cancer is presenting its groundbreaking results of its
ColoFuture Study. Originally scheduled for presentation by Dr
Moritz Eidens, the Company’s Chief Scientific Officer, to assembled
academics as part of a poster session at the 4th International
Conference on Gastroenterology in Paris, the event has since been
rescheduled from October to December. In consultation with the
Conference leadership, Mainz Biomed has opted to release the
eagerly anticipated ColoFuture results in line with the original
conference schedule.
The ColoFuture study was a multi-center international clinical
trial assessing the potential to integrate a portfolio of novel
gene expression (mRNA) biomarkers into ColoAlert®, the Company’s
highly efficacious, and easy-to-use screening test for colorectal
cancer (CRC) which is being commercialized across Europe and in
select international territories.
The presented results of the groundbreaking study included a
sensitivity for CRC of 94% with a specificity of 97% and a
sensitivity for advanced adenoma (AA) of 80%.
The detailed poster presentation can be viewed here.

About ColoAlert®ColoAlert®,
Mainz Biomed’s flagship product, delivers high sensitivity and
specificity in a user-friendly, at-home colorectal cancer (CRC)
screening kit. This non-invasive test can be indicative of tumors
as determined by analyzing tumor DNA, offering better early
detection than fecal occult blood tests (FOBT). Based on
PCR-technology, ColoAlert® detects more cases of colorectal
cancer than other stool tests and allows for an earlier diagnosis
(Dollinger et al., 2018). The product is
commercially available in select EU countries through a network of
leading independent laboratories, corporate health programs and via
direct sales. To receive marketing approval in the US,
ColoAlert® will be evaluated in the FDA-registration trial
‘ReconAAsense.’ Once approved in the US, the Company’s commercial
strategy is to establish scalable distribution through a
collaborative partner program with regional and national laboratory
service providers across the country.
About Colorectal CancerColorectal cancer (CRC)
is the third most common cancer globally, with more than 1.9
million new cases reported in 2020, according to World Cancer
Research Fund International. The US Preventive Services Task Force
recommends that screening with stool DNA tests such as
ColoAlert® should be conducted once every three years starting
at age 45. Each year in the US, 16.6 million colonoscopies are
performed. However, roughly one-third of US residents aged 50-75
have never been screened for colon cancer. This gap in screening
represents a $4.0B+ total market opportunity in the US.
About Mainz Biomed N.V. Mainz Biomed
develops market-ready molecular genetic diagnostic solutions for
life-threatening conditions. The Company’s flagship product is
ColoAlert®, an accurate, non-invasive and easy-to-use,
early-detection diagnostic test for colorectal cancer based on
real-time Polymerase Chain Reaction-based (PCR) multiplex detection
of molecular-genetic biomarkers in stool samples. ColoAlert® is
currently marketed across Europe. The Company is running a pivotal
FDA clinical study for US regulatory approval. Mainz Biomed’s
product candidate portfolio also includes PancAlert, an early-stage
pancreatic cancer screening test. To learn more, visit
