Physiomics awarded further contract by Merck

Physiomics plc (AIM: PYC), the oncology consultancy using mathematical models and its Virtual Tumour™ technology to support the development of cancer treatment regimens and personalised medicine solutions, is pleased to announce that it has been awarded a further contract of undisclosed value by its existing client Merck KGaA ("Merck").

This contract is an extension of one of the projects awarded and announced on 20 December 2019. As stated at that time, Merck has moved to a model where a number of projects will potentially be signed over the course of the year rather than all of them being agreed in advance as in previous years. This latest contract award reinforces the new arrangement with Merck, and the Company hopes that further contracts may be signed over the remaining course of this calendar year.

This project extension is expected to be concluded over the next six months.

Dr Jim Millen, CEO said: "We are delighted that the new arrangement with our long-standing client, Merck, appears to be working well, having already added our first additional project to those announced in December 2019. We look forward to the possibility of further new projects as the year progresses."

This announcement is released by Physiomics plc and contains inside information for the purposes of Article 7 of the Market Abuse Regulation (EU) 596/2014 (MAR), and is disclosed in accordance with the Company's obligations under Article 17 of MAR.
