Agendia Announces Intention to List on NYSE Euronext in Amsterdam
Geschrieben am 20-05-2011 |
Amsterdam (ots/PRNewswire) - Agendia (the "Company"), a
commercial-stage molecular diagnostic company with operations in the
Netherlands and the United States, announces today its intention to
raise new funds through an initial public offering ("IPO") on NYSE
Euronext in Amsterdam.
Agendia is focused on the discovery, development and
commercialisation of molecular diagnostic products that help
physicians to make personalised treatment decisions for their cancer
patients. The Company is currently marketing its Symphony(TM) suite
of four complementary breast cancer tests, which provides a
comprehensive support system for oncologists to determine whether a
patient is likely to benefit from hormonal therapy, chemotherapy or
targeted therapies. Agendia is also developing a pipeline of
genomic-based diagnostic products, including a further extension of
its breast cancer suite of tests as well as products for colon cancer
and lung cancer.
Agendia intends to use the net proceeds of the IPO primarily to
expand sales and marketing activities in its breast cancer franchise,
particularly in the United States, and to complete technical
validation and initiate commercialisation of its ColoPrint(R) colon
cancer test.
Details on the offering will be announced in due course, subject
to approval of the prospectus by the Netherlands Authority for
Financial Markets and market conditions.
ABN AMRO and ING have been appointed as joint global coordinators
and joint bookrunners for the IPO. KBC Securities and Kempen & Co are
acting as co-lead managers.
About Agendia
Agendia is a commercial-stage molecular diagnostic company
focused on the discovery, development and commercialisation of
genomic-based diagnostic products to improve the quality of life for
cancer patients by providing healthcare professionals with critical
information to enable safe and effective personalised treatment. The
Company's Symphony(TM) suite of four complementary breast cancer
tests, TargetPrint(R), MammaPrint(R), BluePrint(TM) and
TheraPrint(R), provides a comprehensive support system for
oncologists to determine whether a breast cancer patient is likely to
benefit from hormonal therapy, chemotherapy or targeted therapies,
saving patients from unnecessary treatments and lowering healthcare
costs. Agendia's lead test, MammaPrint(R), currently the only
molecular diagnostic breast cancer recurrence test to receive
clearance from the US Food and Drug Administration, gives physicians
a tool to clearly and decidedly separate "high" risk from "low" risk
recurrence in early stage breast cancer patients, thereby better
gauging the "high" risk patients' need for chemotherapy. Agendia is
advancing a pipeline of new products, which includes a further
extension of its breast cancer suite of tests as well as products for
colon cancer and lung cancer. The Company's research and development
activities are driven by its deep scientific roots and supported by
collaborations with leading academic consortia, cancer centres and
pharmaceutical companies.
Agendia was founded in 2003 as a spin-off of the Netherlands
Cancer Institute and is based in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and
Irvine, California, United States. For more information, please visit
