About Colorectal Cancer
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer globally, with more
than 1.9 million new cases reported in 2020, according to World Cancer
Research Fund International. The US Preventive Services Task Force
recommends that screening with stool DNA tests such as ColoAlert® should be
conducted once every three years starting at age 45. Each year in the US,
16.6 million colonoscopies are performed. However, roughly one-third of US
residents aged 50-75 have never been screened for colon cancer. This gap in
screening represents a $4.0B+ total market opportunity in the US.
About Mainz Biomed N.V.
Mainz Biomed develops market-ready molecular genetic diagnostic solutions
for life-threatening conditions. The Company's flagship product is
ColoAlert®, an accurate, non-invasive and easy-to-use, early-detection
diagnostic test for colorectal cancer based on real-time Polymerase Chain
Reaction-based (PCR) multiplex detection of molecular-genetic biomarkers in
stool samples. ColoAlert® is currently marketed across Europe. The Company
is planning to run a pivotal FDA clinical study for US regulatory approval.
