Diaceutics Launches Enhanced Rare-Disease Offering

Significant expansion of lab network will deliver more rare-disease data

New contract signed to support the commercialisation of a rare-disease therapy

Belfast and London, 27 August 2024 - Diaceutics PLC (AIM: DXRX), a leading technology and solutions provider to the pharma and biotech industry, is pleased to announce a significant enhancement to its offering which has facilitated a new rare-disease contract win. Access to this new data will revolutionise the early identification of patients, a crucial growth area for pharma companies developing therapies for rare-diseases. Leveraging cutting-edge data utilisation, it will improve earlier patient diagnosis and ultimately, clinical outcomes.  

Driving this enhancement are 3 key developments within the Diaceutics business as follows:

Jordan Clark, Chief Data Officer of Diaceutics commented: "These enhancements to our rare-disease data offering represent significant progress in our mission to support the earlier identification and treatment of patients with rare diseases. By integrating new data, advanced labelling and a specialised team, we are well-positioned to address the critical needs of this underserved market and help patients in need."

Susanne Munksted, Chief Precision Medicine Officer of Diaceutics, commented: "Diaceutics is uniquely positioned to support pharma clients in the challenging and complex area of rare diseases. Our business model is unique in that we combine best in class data with disease experts who have a passion for precision medicine and improving patient outcomes."

Despite medical and scientific advances, diagnosing rare diseases remains a significant challenge for biopharma companies. Many patients face years of multiple referrals, inconclusive test results and limited treatment benefits. Early diagnosis and quick interventions are crucial for patient survival and quality of life. A precision medicine approach can end these diagnostic odysseys and open opportunities for better clinical outcomes for patients in need.

The strategic enhancements announced today will enable Diaceutics to identify more patients earlier and in doing so, help pharma customers to better commercialise gene therapies for rare diseases. Leveraging these business enhancements, Diaceutics has already secured a new contract to provide a multi-product solution to support the commercialisation of a therapy in a rare autosomal-recessive disease. This initial contract win demonstrates Diaceutics' ability to meet the complex needs of this market.

This announcement contains inside information for the purposes of Article 7 of Regulation (EU) 596/2014 as it forms part of UK domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 ("MAR"), and is disclosed in accordance with the Company's obligations under Article 17 of MAR. The person responsible for making this announcement on behalf of the Company is Nick Roberts, Chief Financial Officer.
