About Oxford BioDynamics Plc
Oxford BioDynamics Plc (AIM: OBD) is a global biotechnology
company, advancing personalized healthcare by developing and
commercializing precision medicine tests for life-changing
diseases.
Its flagship product is EpiSwitch(R) CiRT (Checkpoint Inhibitor
Response Test) for cancer, a predictive immune response profile for
immuno-oncology (IO) checkpoint inhibitor treatments, launched in
February 2022.
OBD's next commercial product will be the Prostate Screening
EpiSwitch(R) (PSE) blood test, due to be launched in Q4 2023.
In March 2021, the Company launched its first commercial
prognostic test, EpiSwitch(R) CST (Covid Severity Test) and the
first commercially available microarray kit for high-resolution 3D
genome profiling and biomarker discovery, EpiSwitch(R) Explorer
Array Kit , which is available for purchase by the life science
research community.
The Company has developed a proprietary 3D genomic biomarker
platform, EpiSwitch(R), which can build molecular diagnostic
classifiers for the prediction of response to therapy, patient
prognosis, disease diagnosis and subtyping, and residual disease
monitoring in a wide range of indications.
Oxford BioDynamics has participated in more than 40 partnerships
with big pharma and leading institutions including Pfizer, EMD
Serono, Genentech, Roche, Biogen, Mayo Clinic, Massachusetts
General Hospital and Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma.
The Company has created a valuable technology portfolio,
including biomarker arrays, molecular diagnostic tests,
bioinformatic tools for 3D genomics and an expertly curated 3D
genome knowledgebase comprising hundreds of millions of data points
from over 10,000 samples in more than 30 human diseases.
OBD is headquartered in Oxford, UK and is listed on AIM of the
London Stock Exchange. It also has a commercial office in
Gaithersburg and a clinical laboratory in Frederick, MD, USA, and a

About EpiSwitch(R)
The 3D configuration of the genome plays a crucial role in gene
regulation. By mapping this architecture and identifying abnormal
configurations, EpiSwitch(R) can be used to diagnose patients or
determine how individuals might respond to a disease or
treatment.
Built on over 10 years of research, EpiSwitch(R) is Oxford
Biodynamics' award-winning, proprietary platform that enables
screening, evaluation, validation and monitoring of 3D genomic
biomarkers. The technology is fully developed, based on testing of
over 10,000 samples in 30 disease areas, and reduced to
practice.
In addition to stratifying patients with respect to anticipated
clinical outcomes, EpiSwitch(R) data offer insights into systems
biology and the physiological manifestation of disease that are
beyond the scope of other molecular modalities. The technology has
performed well in academic medical research settings and has been
validated through its integration in biomarker discovery and
clinical development with big pharma.
