Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month: Mainz Biomed Advocates for a Shift from Screening to Prevention
04 March 2025 - 12:01AM
Mainz Biomed N.V. (NASDAQ:MYNZ) (“Mainz Biomed” or the
“Company”), a molecular genetics diagnostic company specializing in
the early detection of cancer, is proud to support Colorectal
Cancer Awareness Month in March. Detecting colorectal cancer (CRC)
in its early stages significantly improves survival rates, making
awareness and proactive screening essential in the fight against
this disease. Globally, CRC is the second leading cause of
cancer-related deaths, with over 930,000 fatalities annually. In
the U.S. it is estimated that over 150,000 people were diagnosed
with colorectal cancer, and in Germany, approximately 22,836
individuals succumb to CRC each year, accounting for a substantial
portion of cancer-related mortality in the country.
Mainz Biomed is committed to combating CRC by advancing
diagnostic solutions that focus on early intervention rather than
late-stage detection. Through ongoing research, the Company aims to
transform the CRC landscape with its next generation product,
enabling early detection of pre-cancerous adenomas to improve
prevention strategies. Leveraging a combination of mRNA biomarkers,
the FIT test, and a proprietary AI algorithm, Mainz Biomed’s pooled
analysis of the ColoFuture and eAArly DETECT studies demonstrated a
groundbreaking advanced adenoma detection sensitivity of 82% and a
specificity of 97%. These findings highlight the immense potential
for early intervention and reinforce the Company’s mission to
develop next-generation screening methods that improve patient
outcomes and pave the way for more effective prevention strategies
in the future.
With the current flagship product, ColoAlert®, Mainz Biomed
already is enhancing the CRC screening landscape by expanding
collaborations with laboratories, including its most recent
partnership in Switzerland. By fostering these partnerships, the
company is making high-quality, DNA-based screening more widely
accessible.
Lowering barriers to CRC screening is crucial in empowering both
patients and healthcare professionals in early cancer detection.
One key initiative is increasing accessibility through at-home
testing solutions, now available via one of Mainz Biomed’s
laboratory partners, European Oncology Lab, through their web-based
platform.
Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month serves as a crucial reminder
that early detection saves lives. Despite being one of the most
preventable cancers, CRC remains a leading cause of cancer-related
deaths worldwide due to low screening participation. Mainz Biomed
is committed to changing this by driving awareness, expanding
access to cutting-edge screening solutions, and empowering
individuals to take proactive steps in their health. By fostering
education, innovation, and accessibility, the Company continues to
champion a future where colorectal cancer is detected early—and,
ultimately, prevented.
