Agendia B.V.


Agendia is a leading molecular diagnostics company that develops and markets FFPE-based genomic diagnostic products, which help support physicians with their complex treatment decisions. Agendia's breast cancer tests were developed using an unbiased gene selection by analyzing the complete human genome. Agendia's tests can help physicians assess a patient's individual risk for metastasis, which patients may benefit from chemo, hormonal or combination therapy, and which patients may not require these treatments and can instead be treated with other, less arduous and less costly methods.

The current breast cancer treatment paradigm is expensive and has significant shortcomings as a result of relatively poor assessment of recurrence risk and over-use of chemotherapy. Our MammaPrint test has shown a clinically validated ability to predict the risk of breast cancer recurrence in the first five years after diagnosis, which is the period in which chemotherapy produces most of its benefits to a patient. MammaPrint is the only breast cancer recurrence assay backed by peer-reviewed, prospective outcome data.
