We are very pleased to collaborate with Mayo Clinic in our ambition to further strengthen our already solid documentation of the value DiviTum® can bring to patients being treated for metastatic breast cancer.  This collaboration complements our previous studies in this field and will be important in our market introduction of DiviTum® as a tool for the monitoring of patient response to treatments within metastatic breast cancer
Anders Rylander, CEO Biovica
As DiviTum® is approaching commercialization we are strengthening the team. Robert brings insights from cancer diagnostics as well as therapeutics and has an excellent track record of successful product launches which will be valuable when launching DiviTum®. The appointment of Robert is an important step in bringing DiviTum® to the US market, for the benefit of cancer patients
Anders Rylander, CEO of Biovica
While great progress has been made in developing new therapies for cancer, there are still sizable gains to be made in better understanding how well a therapy is working during the course of treatment. With pioneering work on cell proliferation markers, Biovica is at the forefront of those improvements. I am excited to be a part of the team. So far, DiviTum® has shown great results in clinical studies, and I am confident it can help clinicians make more informed decisions, so patients get the best possible treatment.
Robert Dann
Our study shows that DiviTum can provide additional information on prognosis and therapy efficacy in women with metastatic breast cancer treated with today's standard therapies. For me as an oncologist, this means that I can get complementary information on the development of the disease that can influence treatment decisions with the goal of better outcome and quality of life for the patient. We are interested in continuing to evaluate DiviTum for women with metastatic breast cancer in larger studies
Anna-Maria Larsson, MD, oncologist and lead investigator in the study at Skåne University Hospital in Lund and Lund University
The study is a strong confirmation of previous studies in metastatic breast cancer. DiviTum has been used in seven published studies in more than 1,000 breast cancer patients. The study in Lund shows that DiviTum can be used as an independent prognostic tool in this indication. The goal for Biovica is for DiviTum to become a standard tool for evaluating treatment efficacy in patients with metastatic breast cancer,
said Anders Rylander, CEO of Biovica
We are pleased with our results in the analytical validation, which is part of our FDA application and so far meet the criteria we have set. However, a component supplier has had delivery delays which means that we now anticipate being able to submit the FDA application a little later than previously expected
Anders Rylander, CEO of Biovica
We are very pleased that these results, which were initially presented at the AACR annual meeting 2019, are published in the renowned journal Clinical Cancer Research. The data shows that DiviTum® can be used to evaluate the treatment efficacy of a CDK 4/6 inhibitor in metastatic breast cancer. This data is an important part of our clinical efficacy data. DiviTum® has been evaluated in more than ten studies including more than 1 700 breast cancer patients.
Anders Rylander, CEO of Biovica
The results from these studies provide the first evidence for DiviTum® as a biomarker of efficacy of palbociclib in metastatic breast cancer and build upon prior evidence in the pre-operative setting. The results need confirmation in larger, ongoing studies, and are encouraging in terms of clinical value. Via this blood test we can potentially identify which patients will not have a benefit from these new treatments and should ideally be selected for alternative regimens.
Dr Luca Malorni, Prato Hospital, Italy, lead investigator of the study
Henrik possesses a rare combination of scientific expertise and commercial experience. With his many years of diagnostics background, he brings with him tremendous insight and an extensive network of contacts. Henrik is an important piece of the puzzle in Biovica's continued market expansion
Anders Rylander, CEO of Biovica
For a decade, Companion Diagnostics i.e. patient stratification for the right individualized treatment has been the focus of the industry. Now, the next very important topic to secure safe and effective treatments within personalized cancer medicine is the monitoring of patient response to therapy. Biovica is in a strong position with its DiviTum test which provides a unique tool to oncologists that allows for a fast, robust and reliable assessment of patients’ response to a given treatment. DiviTum really has a great potential as it is already CE marked, has interesting applications, support from key opinion leaders globally and several excellent clinical study results. The pieces are in place to take Biovica to the next level.
Henrik Winther
The results from two additional studies with DiviTum® will be presented at San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium, the world's largest scientific conference on breast cancer
Anders Rylander, CEO of Biovica
We are thrilled to see these new, interesting results. It demonstrates that pre-operative DiviTum values measured in serum is a strong prognostic marker in operable breast cancer with a potential to identify patients with the most aggressive tumors in order to personalize their therapy,
lead investigator Dr. Luca Malorni, Prato Hospital, Italy
Dr Malorni’s research group has managed to show prognostic effect in a large cohort of women with operable breast cancer. This gives us high expectations on DiviTum’s potential beyond monitoring of treatment for patients with metastatic breast cancer, which is our first application for DiviTum.
Anders Rylander, CEO of Biovica

lead investigator Luc Cabel, MD, Institut Curie, Paris
We are proud to present great new DiviTum results in collaboration with globally renowned Institut Curie. The data presented in the study by Dr Luc Cabel and his colleagues constitute further important validation of DiviTum’s capacity to monitor therapy efficacy in women with metastatic breast cancer. It supports the results from the TREnd study presented earlier this year, and our high expectations on DiviTum to become a standard biomarker in metastatic breast cancer. With DiviTum we want to contribute to improved patient outcome

A 510(k) clearance for DiviTum will make the product available for US patients and is an important step in fulfilling our vision to enable best treatment outcome for patients.
Anders Rylander CEO of Biovica
After completing and publishing 17 clinical trials in total out of which 8 are within breast-cancer, we’re seeing a recurring pattern of the value DiviTum® can bring to cancer patients. Hence, it is important for us to summarize this into a document in order to provide the big picture. The results further strengthen our belief that we can achieve our vision – Best treatment from day one!
Anders Rylander, CEO Biovica
Endocrine therapy remains the backbone treatment of choice for patients with metastatic breast cancer expressing hormone receptors; however, as clinicians, we currently do not have tools to early identify those patients who will do good with endocrine therapy alone or may need additional treatment. The results from our work with DiviTum® are exciting and confirm, in a larger number of patients, our previous observation that this assay may indeed help clinicians in this hard task. DiviTum® will certainly become a very useful tool for the development of innovative clinical trials in this field, and ultimately for clinical practice.
Dr Luca Malorni, MD, PhD, Prato Hospital
These results reinforce what we have seen in previous studies, proving that DiviTum® can provide clinically relevant information highly beneficial for women with advanced breast cancer on hormonal therapy.
