bioAffinity Technologies Appoints Jamie Platt, Ph.D., to its Board of Directors - Seite 2

In addition to her role on the board of Pictor Limited, Dr. Platt has served on the boards of Mobility Health, a biohealth diagnostic company focused on precise, rapid infectious disease testing, and DxTerity, a leader in genomic immune-mediated diagnostic technology that develops easy-to-use, fast and affordable genomic tests for disease diagnosis and monitoring. In addition to her board seats, Dr. Platt has held scientific advisory roles for Roche and Genomics England and served on several working groups in the diagnostics, regulatory and genomic areas.

"I am deeply honored to join the bioAffinity Technologies Board of Directors," Dr. Platt said. "As a molecular and cellular biologist, I appreciate the science behind the CyPath Lung technology and recognize its potential to transform patients’ lives by detecting lung cancer and other lung diseases early when outcomes are better. I look forward to contributing to the growth and success of bioAffinity Technologies as this talented team continues to innovate and redefine what's possible in early-stage cancer detection and treatment."

Dr. Platt replaces Mohsin Y. Meghji who stepped down from the Board of Directors on Dec. 1, 2023, after serving four years. Mr. Meghji’s resignation was for personal reasons and not due to any disagreement with the Company or its operations, policies or practices. “We want to thank Mr. Meghji for his valuable contributions to bioAffinity. It has been a pleasure to work with him, and we wish him well on his future endeavors," Ms. Zannes said.

About CyPath Lung

CyPath Lung uses flow cytometry to identify cell populations in patient sputum that indicate malignancy. Automated data analysis developed using proprietary artificial intelligence can help determine if cancer is present or if the patient is cancer-free. CyPath Lung incorporates a fluorescent porphyrin, TCPP, that is preferentially taken up by cancer and cancer-related cells. In a clinical trial, CyPath Lung showed 92% sensitivity, 87% specificity and 88% accuracy in detecting lung cancer in patients at high risk for the disease who had small lung nodules less than 20 millimeters. Half of all patients in the trial who had cancer were diagnosed in early Stages I or II. Diagnosing and treating early-stage cancer can increase patient survival and improve outcomes.
