LONDON and PHOENIX, Ariz., Sept. 13, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AccuStem Sciences, Inc. (OTCQB: ACUT), a clinical stage diagnostics company dedicated to improving outcomes for patients with cancer, announced today that the US Patent and Trademark Office has issued a new patent, No. 11,441,191, further strengthening the company’s foundation of intellectual property for its novel StemPrintER test.
The patent, “Methods and Kits Comprising Gene Signatures for Stratifying Breast Cancer Patients,” covers the methodology behind the 20-gene StemPrintER test which stratifies patients with early stage breast cancer according to their recurrence risk. The test is designed to measure the “stemness” of tumors, or how much they behave like stem cells, which may indicate the likelihood of cancer progression and response to standard treatment modalities. Studies have shown that StemPrintER is highly prognostic, with “high stemness” patients up to 4 times as likely to experience a distant recurrence as “low stemness” patients.
“This is an important step forward for AccuStem. This addition to our intellectual property portfolio will enable us to commercialize in the US and drive innovation in healthcare - one of our core commitments as a healthcare company,” said Wendy Blosser, Chief Executive Officer of AccuStem.
