Press release from Companies: Genetic Analysis AS launches AInsight for AI-assisted interpretation of GA-map® Dysbiosis Test results

The GA-map® Dysbiosis Test is a diagnostic tool used to analyze gut microbiomes and assess intestinal dysbiosis by comparing a patient's microbiome with a healthy reference group. Although microbiome analysis offers insights into bacterial imbalances, interpreting these complex profiles can be challenging in clinical settings. AInsight aids healthcare professionals by organizing microbiome findings and explaining deviations in bacterial levels using scientific evidence. It employs an AI language model to provide clinically relevant associations for each bacterial marker identified by the GA-map® Dysbiosis Test. This simplification aims to enhance the clinical application of the test and increase demand for GA's reagent kits. AInsight operates within a controlled system, only accessing information from GA’s curated Bacteria Compendium, ensuring that reports align with the scientific basis of the GA-map® Dysbiosis Test. This setup allows for automated, structured interpretation reports for individual microbiome profiles, facilitating scalable report generation and helping laboratories manage higher testing volumes efficiently. CEO Ronny Hermansen expressed satisfaction with the introduction of AInsight, highlighting its role in making microbiome diagnostics more accessible in routine healthcare and supporting the broader use of the GA-map® Dysbiosis Test. The reports are meant to support information interpretation and should be considered within a broader clinical context by qualified professionals. AInsight is a strategic move to expand the clinical use of GA's diagnostic platform. For more information, contact CEO Ronny Hermansen via email.

Press release from Companies: Microbiome Dx Genetic Analysis announces important patent approval enhancing the use of GA-map® in Canada

En familj av patent, utvecklade av Genetic Analysis, handlar om avancerade algoritmer för att analysera och karakterisera tarmmikrobiota i relation till hälsosamma populationer. Dessa uppfinningar är inriktade på diagnos, övervakning och karakterisering av sjukdomar och tillstånd kopplade till förändringar i mag-tarmkanalens mikrobiota. Patenten erbjuder metoder för att bedöma mikrobiotans tillstånd och identifiera avvikelser från det normala tillståndet på ett enkelt, tillförlitligt och flexibelt sätt, oavsett vilken teknik som används för att mäta mikroorganismer i ett GI-prov. Det kanadensiska patentkontoret har godkänt patentet, och det förväntas utfärdas formellt under första kvartalet 2026. Patentfamiljen har prioritetsdatum den 27 mars 2015 och kommer att vara giltig till 2036.

Press release from Companies: Genetic Analysis AS announces milestone in the IBD diagnostic test development project - completion of biomarker panel for GA-map® IBD Precision Dx

The IBD Precision Dx project aims to create a microbiome-based diagnostic test to predict the disease course in Ulcerative Colitis (UC) patients, aiding in earlier and more targeted treatment decisions. This project is a collaboration with Akershus University Hospital and the University hospital of Gothenburg, supported by EUR 2 million from the Research Council of Norway. Genetic Analysis (GA) has completed the bacteria biomarker panel design, facilitating the stratification of UC patients by disease severity through stool sample analysis. GA, with extensive IBD research experience since 2013, has developed the GA-map® IBD Precision Dx using its proprietary technology for commercialization on the Luminex® xMAP® platform. The test addresses a clinical need, as no current diagnostic tool predicts UC disease severity, which is crucial for optimizing treatment and improving patient outcomes. The project leaders express optimism about the test's potential to support personalized treatment strategies and reduce healthcare costs, with plans to launch the test in 2026.

Press release from Companies: Genetic Analysis AS and Pangea Laboratory LLC announces the launch of GA-map® MHI GutHealth in the USA

GA-map® MHI GutHealth är ett diagnostiskt test baserat på mikrobiomen, utvecklat av GA i samarbete med Ferring Pharmaceuticals. Testet ger insikter om antibiotikainducerade obalanser i mikrobiomen och kombinerar GA:s teknik med Ferrings Microbiome Health Index™ (MHI), en biomarkör som mäter förhållandet mellan pro-inflammatoriska och anti-inflammatoriska bakterier. Initialt riktar sig testet till patienter med återkommande Clostridioides difficile-infektioner (rCDI) och hjälper kliniker att bedöma och övervaka mikrobiomets obalanser. I USA drabbas cirka 500,000 patienter årligen av rCDI, vilket kan leda till återfall och dödsfall. Testet kan också användas för andra patientgrupper där antibiotikaassocierad mikrobiomobalans är viktig, såsom vid Graft-versus-Host Disease och hos immunosupprimerade patienter. Testet kommer att finnas tillgängligt för analys hos Pangea, där GA levererar reagenskit. Samarbetet innebär ingen finansiell investering från GA:s sida, och intäkterna genereras baserat på antalet sålda tester. John Moore, VD för Pangea, och Ronny Hermansen, VD för GA, ser båda samarbetet som ett viktigt steg för att förbättra mikrobiomdiagnostik och patientvård i USA.
