people suffering from cancer, and new technologies like MammaPrint are changing the way oncologists are treating this life-threatening disease in a way that directly benefits patients' lives."

As part of the recognition and support surrounding the award, Minister Klink noted that he would actively support the inclusion of MammaPrint in the package of treatments for which reimbursement is available so that the test can provide benefit to as many breast cancer patients as possible in The Netherlands.

About MammaPrint(R)

MammaPrint laboratory service is the first and only FDA cleared (February 2007) DNA microarray-based 'in vitro diagnostic multivariate index assay' (IVDMIA). MammaPrint measures the activity of 70 genes, providing information about the likelihood of tumor recurrence. The MammaPrint test measures the level of expression of each of these genes in a sample of a woman's surgically-removed breast cancer tumor and then uses a specific formula or algorithm to produce a score that determines whether the patient is deemed low risk or high risk for spread of the cancer to another site. The result may help a doctor in planning treatment and appropriate follow-up for a patient when used with other clinical information and laboratory tests. All MammaPrint tests are conducted in Agendia's CLIA-certified central service laboratory.
