IRVINE, CA, and HERSTAL, BELGIUM – April 19, 2023 – MDxHealth SA (NASDAQ/Euronext: MDXH), a commercial-stage precision diagnostics company, received notice that its Select mdx for Prostate Cancer test has successfully completed a rigorous technical assessment process with the Molecular Diagnostics Services (MolDX) Program developed by Palmetto GBA. Select mdx will be reimbursed throughout the U.S. for Medicare patients who meet coverage conditions under the foundational Local Coverage Determination (LCD) for Molecular Biomarkers to Risk-Stratify Patients at Increased Risk for Prostate Cancer.

Michael K. McGarrity, CEO of mdxhealth, commented: “We are pleased to report this very positive and important development for mdxhealth. The quality of our clinical data for the Select mdx test, strong adoption from our urology customer base and inclusion in the NCCN Guidelines all reflect this positive reimbursement decision that now provides coverage for Medicare patients. We look forward to expanding the availability of our test to current and new customers and to patients entering the diagnostic pathway of prostate cancer. We believe our pre-biopsy Select mdx test, coupled with our post-biopsy Confirm mdx® and Genomic Prostate Score (formerly Oncotype DX GPS) tests, provides the most comprehensive and clinically actionable pathway for urologists and patients.”

About Select mdx

Select mdx for Prostate Cancer is a proprietary urine-based mRNA test that offers a non-invasive method to assess a patient’s risk for clinically significant prostate cancer. Select mdx helps identify men at increased risk for undetected aggressive, potentially lethal, prostate cancer who may benefit most from a prostate biopsy and earlier detection. The test delivers a negative predictive value of 95% for clinically significant disease, helping to reduce the need for MRI procedures and invasive prostate biopsies, thereby reducing healthcare costs. The test has been included in the Early Detection for Prostate Cancer National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) clinical guidelines.
