CENTOGENE Sets Mission to Enable the Cure of 100 Rare Diseases Within the Next 10 Years - Seite 2

Diagnose. Understand. Treat.

Founded in 2006, CENTOGENE has long been known for its expertise in the field of rare disease genetics - helping over 600,000 patients and building a rare disease-centric Bio/Databank. Aspiring to reduce the heavy burden of rare diseases through data-driven insights, the Company has established itself as the leading partner of choice for patients, physicians, and pharma partners.

At the Virtual Investor Event, the Company will announce its strategic multi-pronged approach to diagnose, understand, and treat rare diseases by finding, connecting, and investigating patients and their biology from around the world.

Strategic Priorities to Accelerate the Discovery, Development, and Access to Orphan Drugs

• Focus on building the Company's Bio/Databank with multimodal data for prioritized disease areas; mid-term target of over 1 million patients
   
• Further establish multiomic platform to overcome the diverse challenges of diagnostics, patient identification, clinical trials, and drug discovery and development
   
• Develop 10 full disease models, including cell lines within the mid-term
   
• Partner in therapeutic focus areas, including two major strategic partnership deals towards enabling therapy development within the next years
   
• Initial priority diseases in the areas of metabolic and neurological disorders include Gaucher and genetic Parkinson's disease

While the Company continues to drive targeted innovation, its priorities remain the same: investing and building its Diagnostics and Pharma segments to transform the science of clinical and genetic data into medical solutions for rare disease patients.

In both of CENTOGENE's core business segments, the Company has established unique positioning and has laid the foundation for growth and impact expected in the near-, mid-, and long-term. Leveraging its rare disease expertise while expanding technology capabilities, CENTOGENE is confident about its path to enabling the cure of 100 rare diseases.
