Date:12/15/2009

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Dec. 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Genomic Health, Inc. (Nasdaq: GHDX) today announced results from five new studies on its Oncotype DX® breast cancer test, a multi-gene expression test that physicians currently use to predict the likelihood of chemotherapy benefit and recurrence risk for patients with early-stage breast cancer. These data were presented at the 32nd Annual CTRC-AACR San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium, held December 9 - 13, 2009, in San Antonio, TX.

Highlights from the five studies presented by Genomic Health and research collaborators include:
