Agendia Achieves CE-IVDR Certification for its MammaPrint ® and BluePrint ® Breast Cancer Assays
Agendia, Inc. today announced that it has obtained certification from the European Union (EU) In Vitro Diagnostic Medical Device Regulation (IVDR) for three products, including its MammaPrint® FFPE Microarray, BluePrint® FFPE Microarray, and MammaPrint® and BluePrint® NGS Kit. These products are classified as Class C under this regulation. This certification recognizes Agendia’s strict adherence to rigorous quality and safety standards and ensures the tests’ reliability and effectiveness in clinical settings across the EU.
“We are very proud to receive the IVDR certification for our MammaPrint and BluePrint tests and look forward to continuing our efforts in providing accurate and effective test results to those undergoing breast cancer treatment,” said Mark R. Straley, Chief Executive Officer of Agendia. “This achievement not only underscores our commitment to delivering the highest standard of care to patients, but also highlights our ability to meet the stringent regulatory requirements necessary to address the needs of breast cancer patients and clinicians around the world.”
The IVDR certification marks a significant advancement in Agendia’s efforts to enhance the decision- making around treatment pathways for those with early breast cancer.

About MammaPrint
MammaPrint® is a gene expression profiling test that reveals the distinct underlying biology of an early-stage tumor to determine its risk of spreading. As the only FDA-cleared gene expression profiling test to assess a woman’s risk of distant metastasis, MammaPrint provides critical answers that help inform the future of her treatment plan at the point of diagnosis, including the timing and benefit to chemotherapy and endocrine therapy. MammaPrint listens to the signals from 70 key genes in a woman’s tumor to stratify her risk within four distinct categories – ranging from UltraLow, Low, High 1, and High 2– to fuel a right-sized care plan tailored to her biology and her life’s plans.
About BluePrint
BluePrint® is a gene expression profiling test that reveals the driving forces behind a tumor’s growth at the earliest stage possible in a woman’s breast cancer care journey to help optimize and personalize treatment planning. As the only molecular subtyping test available in the U.S., BluePrint goes where pathology cannot, offers critical insights that providers may otherwise have not known to act on, and gives women the best chance to return to a life not defined by cancer. BluePrint measures the activity of 80 key genes that are involved in a tumor's growth to classify a tumor as Luminal-type, HER2-type, or Basal-type, each of which warrant distinct treatment pathways. By revealing the distinct underlying biology of a woman's tumor, BluePrint can catch often misclassified, yet highly aggressive, Basal tumors, so women can be prescribed the most appropriate treatment from the start

First Post Quantum Cryptographic Algorithm Certificates Issued16.8.2024 21:36:00 EEST | Press release
NIST published the final version of FIPS 203 (ML-KEM), FIPS 204 (ML-DSA), and FIPS 205 (SLH-DSA) on August 13, 2024, making the first post-quantum cryptographic (PQC) algorithms official and wrapping up an eight-year effort to prepare us for a future where quantum cyberattacks are a more common threat. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20240816465334/en/ The first PQC algorithm certificates issued. (Photo: Business Wire) NIST enabled the ACVTS (Automated Cryptographic Validation Test System) for these algorithms on that same day, and atsec is pleased to announce it successfully performed the world’s first algorithm testing of ML-KEM and ML-DSA using ACVTS, obtaining the first associated CAVP certificates covering all supported algorithm options and key sizes mere hours later. atsec is excited to announce that testing of these post-quantum algorithms is available for all vendors, with services including providing t
Eccentrica Unveils Fully Drivable Vehicle Featuring a Naturally Aspirated V12 Engine at The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering16.8.2024 03:00:00 EEST | Press release
Eccentrica, a San Marino-based restomod manufacturer, globally unveiled its fully drivable Eccentrica V12, a modern interpretation of the legendary Lamborghini Diablo, at The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering.

Incyte Announces Positive Topline Results from Pivotal Study of Tafasitamab (Monjuvi ® ) in Relapsed or Refractory Follicular Lymphoma15.8.2024 23:30:00 EEST | Press release
Incyte (Nasdaq: INCY) today announces positive topline results from the pivotal Phase 3 inMIND trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of tafasitamab (Monjuvi®), a humanized Fc-modified cytolytic CD19 targeting monoclonal antibody, or placebo in combination with lenalidomide and rituximab compared to lenalidomide and rituximab alone in patients with relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma (FL). The trial met its primary endpoint of progression free survival (PFS) by investigator assessment in FL. It also met key secondary endpoints of PFS in the overall population by investigator assessment as well as the positron-emission tomography-complete response rate in the FDG-avid FL population. In addition, the secondary endpoint of PFS results by blinded independent review are consistent with investigator based PFS results. No new safety signals with tafasitamab were observed. “While many patients with follicular lymphoma initially benefit from first-line treatment, relapse of the disease
