About CardioDx

CardioDx is a cardiovascular genomic diagnostics company providing physicians with clinically validated tests to enable more informed and individualized patient care decisions. We are strategically focused on developing products for three forms of cardiovascular disease: coronary artery disease (CAD), cardiac arrhythmias and heart failure. The company's first product, Corus(TM) CAD, is the first and only gene expression test to quantify the likelihood of obstructive coronary artery disease in a stable chest pain patient. Developed and validated in a multicenter U.S. clinical trial, Corus CAD integrates the activity of a panel of genes with other patient characteristics to assess obstructive coronary artery disease. Corus CAD is now available in nine states - Kentucky, Maryland, Illinois, Washington, Wisconsin, Minnesota, North Carolina, Texas and Arizona - via the CardioDx CLIA-certified Commercial Laboratory with broader availability expected in 2010. CardioDx was founded in 2004 and is located in Palo Alto, California. For more information, please visit www.cardiodx.com.

(1) Obstructive CAD is defined as at least one atherosclerotic plaque causing greater than or equal to 50% luminal diameter stenosis in a major coronary artery (greater than or equal to 1.5mm lumen diameter) as determined by invasive quantitative coronary angiography (QCA).
