A GenNXeix Test at 40 will Prevent Breast Cancer at 60
Gaussian processes in action, Houston base GenNXeix breast cancer test is the first and only multigene expression test to be included in the published guidelines in the National Comprehensive Cancer Network, to predict the likelihood of chemotherapy
benefit as well as recurrence, for patients with node-negative breast cancer that is estrogen-receptor positive and/or progesterone-receptor positive. Additionally, physicians use GenNXeix to make treatment recommendations for certain node-
positive breast cancer patients, and the test report also provides quantitative scores for select individual genes. GenNXeix has been extensively evaluated in thirteen clinical studies involving more than 4,000 breast cancer patients worldwide, including a large validation study published in The New England Journal of Medicine and a chemotherapy benefit study published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology. Both Medicare and private health plans covering over 90 percent of U.S. insured lives provided reimbursement for GenNXeix for patients with node-negative breast cancer that is estrogen-receptor positive and/or progesterone-receptor positive through contracts, agreements or policy decisions.
