Taglich Brothers Initiates Coverage on MDxHealth SA


NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - May 09, 2016) - Taglich Brothers, Inc. announces it initiated coverage of MDxHealth SA (EURONEXT BRUSSELS: MDXH)(OTC: MDXHF).

MDxHealth, headquartered in Herstal, Belgium, was established in 2003. The company has developed noninvasive diagnostics based on epigenetics, which uses selected biomarkers to detect the presence of cancer and gauge the extent of its progress by analyzing a patients' tissue, blood or urine samples. Biomarkers are measurable structures or processes in the body that indicate the presence of a disease and, potentially, the effects of treatments for that disease.

MDx's lead product, ConfirmMDx, was launched in 2012. ConfirmMDx analyzes a biopsy tissue sample from suspected prostate cancer cases who have tested negative. As initial biopsies (as well as follow-up ones) can be inconclusive, repeat biopsies are frequently performed to verify or rule out a diagnosis of prostate cancer. ConfirmMDx can confirm a true negative biopsy, sparing the patient the ordeal and risks of unnecessary repeat biopsies. It can also identify cases of undetected cancer.

SelectMDx was launched in Europe in 2015 and in the US in March 2016. SelectMDx, an initial diagnostic tool, analyzes a patient's urine and identifies patients at low risk for prostate cancer, as well as patients at high risk for undetected aggressive prostate cancer that should be treated with greater urgency.

MDx is also developing AssureMDx, a bladder cancer test, and is exploring diagnostics for kidney cancer. The company has developed markers for non-urologic -- colon, brain and cervical -- cancers that have been licensed to other diagnostic companies, adding royalties and milestone payments to its potential revenue stream.

As non-invasive and inexpensive diagnostics, ConfirmMDx and SelectMDx could significantly reduce the cost of prostate cancer diagnosis by enabling patients to avoid biopsies -- they cost the US healthcare system around $4 billion annually -- and improve outcomes by identifying cases of potentially lethal fast growing disease more quickly.
