BERKELEY, Calif. and MAINZ, Germany, April 01, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mainz Biomed N.V. (NASDAQ:MYNZ) (“Mainz Biomed” or the “Company”), a molecular genetics diagnostic company specializing in the early detection of cancer, announced today financial results for the year ended December 31, 2024, a summary on 2024 accomplishments, and an update on corporate developments for early 2025.

Key 2024 Accomplishments

• Mainz Biomed and Thermo Fisher Scientific signed a collaboration agreement for the development of the Company’s next generation colorectal cancer (CRC) screening product for global markets. The agreement will enable Mainz Biomed and Thermo Fisher to jointly develop and potentially commercialize Mainz Biomed’s next generation colorectal cancer screening product. The collaboration will harness Thermo Fisher’s powerful technologies, instrumentation and information translation systems to allow Mainz Biomed to develop the proprietary assays for its mRNA-based next-generation CRC screening tests which are redefining standards in early cancer detection.

  
  

• Mainz Biomed entered into an agreement with Quest Diagnostics to provide clinical trial laboratory services for Mainz Biomeds’s ReconAAsense study, a prospective clinical study that will include approximately 15,000 subjects from 150 sites across the United States to develop data supporting FDA validation of the next generation test. In addition, Mainz Biomed will provide Quest with the option to exercise semi-exclusive rights to provide testing services based on the test kit for an eighteen-month period, assuming its approval by the FDA.Mainz Biomed executed an $8.0 Million follow-on offering for 1,367,521 units sold at an offering price of $5.85 per unit, priced at-the-market under Nasdaq rules. Each unit included an ordinary share, a Series A warrant and a Series B warrant. Each Series A warrant is immediately exercisable at an exercise price of $5.85 per share and will expire five years from the date of issuance. Each Series B warrant is immediately exercisable at an exercise price of $5.85 per share and will expire on the earlier of 30 days following receipt of results from the Company’s eAArly Detect 2 study and one year from the date of issuance.

  
  

• In October 2024, the Company made a strategic decision to focus its efforts on three key initiatives for the remainder of 2024 and into 2025 in order to maximize shareholder value. Those initiatives are:The continued growth of its ColoAlert® business in Europe through its distribution/lab partner network;Development of its next generation colorectal cancer screening product; andRunning a 2,000 patient study, with average risk patients in the U.S., to read out by the end of 2025 (eAArly DETECT 2). With eAArly DETECT 2, the Company addresses FDA feedback and prepares for a new submission for breakthrough device designation with an expanded data set, including a larger average-risk patient population.During 2024, Mainz Biomed’s revenue from sales through its lab partner network increased by 33% year over year; this increase was tempered by a decrease in direct-to-consumer sales as the Company ceased its efforts in that unprofitable channel.In 2024, Mainz Biomed’s loss from operations and net loss decreased by 30% and 18%, respectively. These decreases are the result of the Company’s efforts to reduce costs and focus on its three key initiatives for 2025.Mainz Biomed published key findings from its groundbreaking eAArly DETECT study during a poster presentation at the renowned Digestive Disease Week (DDW) 2024 in Washington D.C.

  
  

• The Company was awarded as a Poster of Distinction by the Digestive Disease Week judges for the presentation of industry leading results: 97% sensitivity for colorectal cancer and 82% for advanced precancerous lesions. The eAArly DETECT results demonstrated that within the advanced precancerous lesion patients, 100% of those patients with high grade dysplasia were detected.The Company presented pivotal data from its largest cohort to date during a poster presentation at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) 2024 Annual Meeting in Chicago, Illinois. This data combined results from the ColoFuture and eAArly DETECT studies including additional patient samples collected since the first reported study results. The new study data confirmed previous ColoFuture and eAArly DETECT study performance with sensitivity for CRC of 92% and 82% for advanced adenomas, including 96% detection of high-grade dysplasia.Mainz Biomed expanded its collaboration with Liquid Biosciences to the Company’s next-generation detection test for pancreatic cancer. The companies are leveraging Liquid Biosciences proprietary AI analysis technology platform (EMERGE) to extend and optimize the selection of novel biomarkers for PancAlert.

  
  

  
  

Early 2025 Updates

On January 23, 2025, the Company received formal notice from Nasdaq confirming that it had regained compliance with the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market set forth in Listing Rule 5550(b)(1). Mainz Biomed had previously received confirmation that it had regained compliance with the minimum bid price requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). Mainz Biomed is now in full compliance with all Nasdaq continued listing requirements.

• The Company reported the first patient has been enrolled in eAArly DETECT 2, a feasibility study to evaluate the Company’s next-generation colorectal cancer (CRC) test. The test integrates its proprietary mRNA biomarkers, an AI-developed algorithm, and a FIT test over a population of approximately 2,000 average-risk patients to validate the industry-leading results of previous feasibility studies and support the transition of CRC screening to CRC prevention. This keeps the Company on schedule to report top-line results by the end of 2025.

• Signed a license and option agreement with Liquid Biosciences to access novel mRNA biomarkers for early detection of pancreatic cancer via blood test. Independent validation of the algorithm-biomarker combination showed 95% sensitivity and 98% specificity.

“We are proud of the accomplishments our team achieved in 2024, which was a transitional year for Mainz Biomed,” commented Guido Baechler, Chief Executive Officer of Mainz Biomed. “While navigating through a period of difficult market conditions, especially for small cap healthcare and technology stocks, we reached many significant milestones. As we look at our early results for 2025, we are encouraged by the progress of our eAArly DETECT 2 study and by our recently announced discovery and license of a suite of mRNA biomarkers, showing outstanding preliminary results for a blood-based pancreatic cancer detection test.”
