https://www.finanznachrichten.de/nachrichten-2019-05/4667105… Company introduces Gary the Prostate to educate consumers about prostate health and prostate cancer awareness TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / May 9, 2019 / GeneNews Limited (TSX: GEN) ("GeneNews" or the "Company"), a life sciences company specializing in blood-based biomarker tests for early cancer detection, has launched the company's first awareness campaign on prostate cancer. The campaign uses Gary the Prostate to explore prostate cancer symptoms, tests and treatments. "We wanted an approach to get people talking more openly about prostate health and conditions that affect the prostate," said James Howard-Tripp, CEO of GeneNews. "Gary allows us to do this in a relatable and engaging way. Many people feel embarrassed to talk about prostate cancer or even know what the prostate looks like or what it does. This is a way to start the conversation and create awareness." According to the American Cancer Society (ACS), other than skin cancer, prostate cancer is the most common cancer in American men. The ACS estimates that in 2019 there will be approximately 174,650 new cases of prostate cancer and 31,620 deaths. About 1 man in 9 will be diagnosed with prostate cancer during his lifetime. Prostate cancer develops mainly in older men and in African-American men.

The agreement was first announced on June 1, 2018. "This is the second time Lind has agreed to provide additional funding for us," said James R. Howard-Tripp, chairman and chief executive officer of GeneNews. "It is not only good to have their strong support of our objectives but it is also an effective way for us to finance. For reference, our share price was approximately four cents at the time of our January financing with Lind, and the last two conversions were priced at 12.89 cents and 13.57 cents." Under the terms of the agreement, Lind has advanced an additional $750,000, less a closing fee of $37,500, in consideration for the increase in the first convertible security in the amount of $900,000. The term of the agreement remains at the original 30 months. GeneNews and Lind have also agreed to increase the potential monthly conversion amount under the agreement from $120,000 to $190,000. In addition, the company will issue 2,552,756 warrants to Lind in respect of the additional financing with an exercise price of 19.09 cents, which is 130 per cent of the five-day volume-weighted average price at April 10, 2019, and exercisable for 36 months. The number of warrants issued in connection with the additional financing is equal to 50 per cent of the $750,000 advanced by Lind divided by the VWAP of the common shares of the company on the Toronto Stock Exchange for the five trading days immediately preceding the closing date. The company's obligations under the agreement are secured by all of the company's present and after-acquired property other than intellectual property, including a pledge of its equity interests in its subsidiaries. The increase in financing under the first convertible security and the issuance of securities thereunder have been conditionally approved by the TSX and are subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions. Additionally, this private placement is not registered in the United States and is not an offer or sale. About GeneNews Ltd.

GeneNews launches national telehealth program 2019-04-17 13:11 ET - News Release Mr. James Howard-Tripp reports THE PROSTATE HEALTH INDEX, A BLOOD TEST FOR PROSTATE CANCER DETECTION, IS NOW AVAILABLE TO CONSUMERS NATIONWIDE THROUGH GENENEWS' NATIONAL TELEHEALTH PROGRAM GeneNews Ltd. has launched its first telehealth program for marketing the Prostate Health Index (PHI) directly to patients nationwide. The Prostate Health Index is a Food and Drug Administration-approved blood test that can help differentiate prostate cancer from benign prostate conditions in men with elevated prostate-specific antigen. The Prostate Health Index is quickly becoming the "second opinion" for men with elevated PSA who want more information before deciding to move forward with a prostate biopsy. While prostate-specific antigen is currently the most used screening test for prostate cancer, it is widely recognized that PSA results can indicate the possibility of prostate cancer when none is present. The Prostate Health Index utilizes three different PSA markers (PSA, freePSA and p2PSA) as part of a sophisticated algorithm to more reliably determine the probability of cancer in patients with elevated PSA levels, and can help men and their physicians decide if a prostate biopsy is indicated. Addressing an unmet need "We launched this program to address the hundreds of patient inquiries we get for the Prostate Health Index," commented James Howard-Tripp, chairman and chief executive officer. "Men want a greater say in their treatment and want these tests done at their request, timelines and convenience. When you are at risk for having prostate cancer, you want to know what your next step should be. Now, through a telehealth physician network that is familiar with the clinical utility of the test, we have a solution that can address a patient's immediate need to get tested and to help guide their management." Studies have shown that approximately 70 per cent of men with an elevated PSA who have a biopsy do not have cancer. The Prostate Health Index is included in the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guideline for prostate cancer early detection as a blood test to improve specificity for prostate cancer detection. How it works The Prostate Health Index is indicated for men aged 50 and older with an elevated PSA between four nanograms per millilitre and 10 nanograms per millilitre. Once an order is submitted, GeneNews will connect the patient with a physician in its U.S.-based telehealth partner network who can prescribe the test after confirming the patient is eligible. GeneNews will then connect the patient with a convenient blood draw location or mobile phlebotomist. The test is processed at the company's CLIA- and CAP-accredited reference laboratory located in Richmond, Va. Results are reported back to the ordering telehealth physician, who will review the results with the patient. Patients are advised to share their test report with their regular health care professionals so that results can be integrated into their treatment plans. Patients pay a flat fee of $299, which covers the physician order, blood draw charges, the test and physician consult, as required. About GeneNews Ltd. GeneNews is dedicated to developing and commercializing innovative solutions for early cancer detection. The company's mission is to provide advanced diagnostics that can help physicians identify cancer in their patients at the earliest-possible stage, when it is the most curable. © 2019 Canjex Publishing Ltd.
