The Japanese patent application, titled "Detection of Early-Stage Lung Cancer in Sputum Using Automated Flow Cytometry and Machine Learning," will be an important addition to bioAffinity Technologies' patent portfolio, which includes 22 awarded U.S. and foreign patents and 36 pending patent applications related to its diagnostic platform and cancer treatment therapeutics. The Japanese patent will be the first awarded in that country for CyPath Lung driven by an AI-built algorithm and the fifth patent protecting the Company's early lung cancer test awarded in Asia, including China and Hong Kong.

The CyPath Lung test uses flow cytometry and artificial intelligence with at-home sample collection to assess indeterminate pulmonary nodules in patients at high risk for lung cancer. Physicians are adding CyPath Lung to the clinical pathway to help risk stratify patients, reduce patient anxiety, support surgical and treatment decisions, and reduce overall healthcare costs. Issuance of the patent is expected to result after payment of the applicable issuance fee.
