Study Presented at Society of Gynecologic Oncologists' 40th Annual Meeting - on Women's Cancer

FREMONT, Calif., Feb. 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Vermillion, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: VRML), a molecular diagnostics company, presented data from its prospective OVA1 clinical trial at the Society of Gynecologic Oncologists' (SGO) 40th Annual Meeting on Women's Cancer in San Antonio, TX (Poster 196). The study entitled "A biomarker panel for distinguishing between malignant and benign ovarian tumors" was co-authored by Fred Ueland, MD, Associate Professor of Gynecologic Oncology at the University of Kentucky and Principal Investigator of the OVA1 clinical trial, and Zhen Zhang, PhD, Associate Professor of Pathology at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine as well as Vermillion scientists.

The data demonstrates that the OvaCalc algorithm can effectively identify women with a higher likelihood of malignancy. Within the study population, the OvaCalc algorithm also detected 90% of Stage I epithelial ovarian cancer cases and 100% of stage 2-4 cancers while maintaining a greater than 90% negative predictive value among both premenopausal and postmenopausal patients.
