7 Why Genetic Testing for Cancer Risk is so important…
Patients who have or had cancer caused by a genetic mutation are at significant risk for another related cancer Family members of patients with cancer are at a higher risk for developing a related cancer Preventing Cancer is a much better than being treated for cancer

8 Catching Cancer Early is Critical

9 Introducing The GeneID PREVENTEST; a New, First-to-Market, non-invasive cancer risk pre-disposition test analyzing 31 Genes linked to 8 of the most common solid tumor hereditary cancers: Qualifying PREVENTEST Cancer Types

10 We are in the Right Space at the Right Time!!
The Next Generations Sequencing (NGS) Market is growing exponentially! The Affordable Care Act has made Precision Medicine and Genetic Testing a Priority There is a tremendous investment being made into Research and Technology resulting in more knowledge about which Gene mutations contribute to which cancers and suggesting even more people should be tested The Competition is Helping Us! Myriad Labs (company that started BRCA testing) is helping spread the message that “testing more genes results in the detection of more cancers” through their MyRISK test

11 The NGS market is the fastest growing in Genomics…2014 Revenue was $2
The NGS market is the fastest growing in Genomics…2014 Revenue was $2.4 Billion growing to almost $28 Billion by 2022 Expected Market Growth: Next Generation Sequencing Market Is Anticipated To Grow To $27.87 Billion In 2022: New Report By Grand View Research, Inc. Fueled by Cancer Genetics!

12 Obama Announces “Precision Medicine Initiative” (Jan
Obama Announces “Precision Medicine Initiative” (Jan. 30, 2015) and Affordable Care Act $217 Million dollar initiative that moves away from one-size-fits-all treatments -Scientists will assemble databases of about a million volunteers to study their genetics …to learn how to individualize treatment and preventative care. BRCA Testing Granted “Preventative Care Designation Under the Affordable Care Act” -Women who have a high risk of developing breast cancer can receive genetic counseling and BRCA testing for free as a preventive service under the law, says a spokeswoman for the Department of Health and Human Services. -According to federal guidelines regarding the implementation of the Affordable Care Act, "genetic counseling and BRCA testing, if appropriate, must be made available as a preventive service without cost-sharing."

13 New Clinical Studies Discovering More Gene Mutations that Cause Cancer
Published: In the prestigious New England Journal of Medicine August 7th, ( Title: Breast-Cancer Risk in Families with Mutations in PALB2 Results: The absolute breast-cancer risk for PALB2 female mutation carriers by 70 years of age ranged from 33% for those with no family history of breast cancer to 58% for those with two or more first-degree relatives with breast cancer at 50 years of age. ***PALB2 is on our PREVENTEST Panel

14 What is Genetic Testing for Cancer Risk?
Predictive testing that can help predict the likelihood that an individual will develop cancer in his or her lifetime Not everyone with a cancer-related gene will develop cancer

15 Who may be at risk for developing hereditary cancer and who should be tested? What criteria determine Medical Necessity? People with Personal history of cancer People with a family member who tested positive for a BRCA mutation People with a Family history of cancer: Combination of 1, 2 or 3 Family members on the same side of the family with a related cancer (Depending on type cancer and age)

16 Evolution of Hereditary Cancer Risk Testing… from 2 Genes to Multi-Gene Panel Testing
Early 90’s -BRCA 1 and 2 Discovered by several scientists (Mary Claire King) -Myriad granted a patent on the BRCA 1-2 Genes and has monopoly on market -Myriad launched BRCAnalysis, a predictive medicine product for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (testing BRCA 1-2) in 1996 -Supreme Court Overturns Myriad BRCA 1-2 Patent in June 2013 opening market to other labs (Ambry, GeneDx, LabCorp, Quest, etc) -Move FROM just testing for BRCA 1&2 to Multiple Gene Testing

17 We are ahead of the Competition…
“After the Supreme Court last year ruled that Myriad Genetics could not patent the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes, the company announced that by 2015 it would replace its BRCAnalysis test with a broader MyRisk panel that analyzes 25 genes associated with hereditary cancers, including breast, colorectal, ovarian, endometrial, pancreatic, prostate, gastric, and melanoma” ***And they will be using Next Generation Sequencing! ***Have been piloting for about 6 months ($50m in sales) ***Blood Draw vs. Cheek Swab with PREVENTEST ***25 Genes vs. 31 with PREVENTEST

18 Testing More Genes identifies more Cancers?
2013 San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium (Myriad Funded Study) It was found that myRisk testing for 25 genes has the ability to identify 51% more patients with higher risk of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer than testing of BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes alone. 2013 Collaborative Group of the Americas on Inherited Colorectal Cancer (CGA) Annual Meeting (Myriad Funded Study) Myriad had reported a 61% improvement in detection of hereditary colon cancer by testing 25 Genes

19 1. “Why Should I test for Cancer Risk?”
The Risk for Cancer is significantly increased with a Genetic Mutation

20 2. “Why would my patients want to know this information?”
Because if they know that they are genetically pre-disposed to any of these 8 cancers, they can reduce the risk or even PREVENT the cancer from occurring!

21 What this information allows you to do…Take Control and develop a preventative plan!
People at a higher risk for cancer may have the option of having: 1. More frequent cancer screenings 2. Avoiding specific risk factors 3. Making lifestyle changes to lessen additional risk 4. Taking preventive medication (chemoprevention) 5. Having risk reducing surgeries in order to reduce their risk

22 3. “What do I do with the information?”
You do the same thing that you would do if you have an out of control diabetic or blood pressure patient…refer them to a Specialist…a Genetic Counselor 1. First bring patient back into office and review results 2. If positive refer them to a local Genetic Counselor or utilize Telephone Consultation Genetic Counselor experts (Informed DNA)

28 Selling the PREVENTEST Tips and Tactics that Work!

29 2 Steps to Success Qualify the Patient for the Test ensure Medical Necessity is met based on personal and family history of cancer Insurance Approval ensure the test will be paid for with zero to minimal out of pocket expense for the patient

30 Performance Goals Oct: 15-25 Tests Nov: 25-50 Tess
Ramp up to Paid Tests/Month minimum Sept: Tests Oct: Tests Nov: Tess And Upward from There!

31 Where Does Your Business Come From?
PCPs (40+ tests/month) OB/GYNs (20+ tests/Doc/Month) General Oncologists (40+ tests/month) Breast Surgeons (40+ tests+/month) Others: Large Practices (GI, Wellness, etc.)

32

33 Insurance Approval Process
Medicare or Medicaid Verification of Active Insurance Patient called to verify history listed on Requisition form Test Run Test Reported and Billed Test Collected Commercial Insurance or Medicare Advantage Plans Verification of Active Insurance Confirm that our CPT codes are covered by the plan for that patient Submit any additional information they require (mostly Medical Notes) Get approval from Insurance to Run (3 days-3 weeks) Test Run Test Reported and Billed Test Collected

34 Submit Tests with Clinical Notes (to speed things up)

35 Good Screening is the Key to Success!

52 The “New Client” Form Fill out completely and send to you distributor lead: Or fax to lab: (201) This is what links the Doctor/Office to you so you will get credit for the tests that are sent into the lab

53 Keys to Success Keep it Simple with your customers…so don’t overcomplicate the message by trying to talk “high science” Our message is: “Doctor, with NGS technology, you can now, with a simple cheek swab, predict the risk of 8 serious solid tumor cancers so that your patients can put a preventative plan in place” Don’t mistake “Excitement” for “Commitment” High Frequency on a few (3-5) Offices until they routinely send tests

54 #1 Key to Success Make Screening for Cancer a “standard” in the office (just like they screen for cholesterol and blood pressure) USE THE CUSTOMIZABLE OFFICE POSTERS and PATIENT QUESTIONNAIRE to profile the most appropriate candidates

55 Office Posters to be placed in waiting room and exam rooms to generate awareness)
(Version 1)

56 Office Posters to be placed in waiting room and exam rooms to generate awareness (Version 2)

57 Questionnaire to determine if patient qualifies
To be included on clipboard for all patients coming in for appointment Can be ed or mailed to patients in practice database

58 Simple Test Process Give 10 Point Questionnaire to Each Patient
If patient scores 10 or more points they are eligible for test Fill out Requisition form, and Consent form and perform mouthwash and swab Put all back into black envelope and send fed ex after a minimum of 5 tests

59 Feedback Mechanism/Other Suggestions
Ask Office to text or call you when a test is coming in and let your distributor know Conference Calls to share successes (GeneID call every Friday at 11:15AM EST) Encourage Multiple tests/Fed Ex shipment Request additional kits through your distributor (New Kits will only be sent once we receive 5 tests)
