Agendia Achieves CE-IVDR Certification for its MammaPrint® and BluePrint® Breast Cancer Assays

Agendia, Inc. today announced that it has obtained certification from the European Union (EU) In Vitro Diagnostic Medical Device Regulation (IVDR) for three products, including its MammaPrint® FFPE Microarray, BluePrint® FFPE Microarray, and MammaPrint® and BluePrint® NGS Kit. These products are classified as Class C under this regulation. This certification recognizes Agendia’s strict adherence to rigorous quality and safety standards and ensures the tests’ reliability and effectiveness in clinical settings across the EU.

“We are very proud to receive the IVDR certification for our MammaPrint and BluePrint tests and look forward to continuing our efforts in providing accurate and effective test results to those undergoing breast cancer treatment,” said Mark R. Straley, Chief Executive Officer of Agendia. “This achievement not only underscores our commitment to delivering the highest standard of care to patients, but also highlights our ability to meet the stringent regulatory requirements necessary to address the needs of breast cancer patients and clinicians around the world.”

About MammaPrint

MammaPrint® is a gene expression profiling test that reveals the distinct underlying biology of an early-stage tumor to determine its risk of spreading. As the only FDA-cleared gene expression profiling test to assess a woman’s risk of distant metastasis, MammaPrint provides critical answers that help inform the future of her treatment plan at the point of diagnosis, including the timing and benefit to chemotherapy and endocrine therapy. MammaPrint listens to the signals from 70 key genes in a woman’s tumor to stratify her risk within four distinct categories – ranging from UltraLow, Low, High 1, and High 2– to fuel a right-sized care plan tailored to her biology and her life’s plans.

About BluePrint

BluePrint® is a gene expression profiling test that reveals the driving forces behind a tumor’s growth at the earliest stage possible in a woman’s breast cancer care journey to help optimize and personalize treatment planning. As the only molecular subtyping test available in the U.S., BluePrint goes where pathology cannot, offers critical insights that providers may otherwise have not known to act on, and gives women the best chance to return to a life not defined by cancer. BluePrint measures the activity of 80 key genes that are involved in a tumor's growth to classify a tumor as Luminal-type, HER2-type, or Basal-type, each of which warrant distinct treatment pathways. By revealing the distinct underlying biology of a woman's tumor, BluePrint can catch often misclassified, yet highly aggressive, Basal tumors, so women can be prescribed the most appropriate treatment from the start
