About Predictive Oncology Inc.
Predictive Oncology (NASDAQ: POAI) operates through five
segments (domestic, international, clinical, CRO and DCHIP), which contain four
subsidiaries; Helomics, TumorGenesis, Skyline Medical and Skyline Europe.
Helomics applies artificial intelligence to its rich data gathered from patient
tumors to both personalize cancer therapies for patients and drive the
development of new targeted therapies in collaborations with pharmaceutical
companies. Helomics’ CLIA-certified lab provides clinical testing that assists
oncologists in individualizing patient-treatment decisions by providing an
evidence-based road map for therapy. In addition to its proprietary
precision-oncology platform, Helomics offers boutique CRO services that
leverage its TruTumor(TM), patient-derived tumor models coupled to a wide range
of multi-omics assays (genomics, proteomics and biochemical), and an AI-powered
proprietary bioinformatics platform (“D- CHIP”) to provide a tailored solution
to its clients’ specific needs. Predictive Oncology’s TumorGenesis subsidiary is
developing a new rapid approach to growing tumors in the laboratory, which
essentially “fools” cancer cells into thinking they are still growing inside a
patient. Its proprietary Oncology Discovery Technology Platform kits will
assist researchers and clinicians to identify which cancer cells bind to
specific biomarkers. Once the biomarkers are identified, they can be used in
TumorGenesis’ Oncology Capture Technology Platforms, which isolate and help
categorize an individual patient’s heterogeneous tumor samples to enable the
development of patient-specific treatment options. Helomics and TumorGenesis
are focused on ovarian cancer. Predictive Oncology’s Skyline Medical division
markets its patented and FDA-cleared STREAMWAY System, which automates the collection,
measurement and disposal of waste fluid, including blood, irrigation fluid and
others, within a medical facility, through both domestic and international
divisions. The company has achieved sales in five of the seven continents
through both direct sales and distributor partners. For more information, visit
