bioAffinity Technologies' CyPath® Lung to Be Featured at Cleveland Clinic Annual "Advances in Early Lung Cancer Detection" Symposium April 16

Invitation-only conference focuses on the evolving landscape of lung cancer risk and early detection when the disease is most treatable

bioAffinity Technologies Chief Medical Officer Gordon Downie, MD, PhD, to participate in panel on lung nodule management

bioAffinity Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: BIAF; BIAFW) , a biotechnology company focused on noninvasive diagnostics and early cancer detection, announces that its CyPath® Lung test will be featured at the invitation-only “Advances in Early Lung Cancer Detection” symposium at the Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland, Ohio, on April 16, 2026. Gordon Downie, MD, PhD, bioAffinity Technologies’ Chief Medical Officer, will be one of three panelists discussing lung nodule management and highlighting the benefits of using CyPath® Lung to aid in the early detection of lung cancer in high-risk patients.

The seventh annual Cleveland Clinic symposium brings together global leaders in the field of lung cancer, including physicians, advocacy organizations, researchers and industry, to accelerate the development and implementation of new technologies and methods to find lung cancer at the earliest stages when it is most treatable. This is bioAffinity Technologies’ seventh invitation to present before symposium attendees.

This year’s agenda addresses lung cancer risk assessment, emerging diagnostic technologies, screening biomarkers and artificial intelligence (AI) as well as the changing epidemiology of lung cancer.

“As the number of indeterminate pulmonary nodules discovered incidentally and by lung screening continues to grow, so does the accompanying need for noninvasive, scalable diagnostic solutions,” Dr. Downie said. “CyPath® Lung directly addresses many of the issues that will be discussed at the Cleveland Clinic’s symposium. Using our sputum-based diagnostic as an adjunct to the current standard of care for newly discovered non-calcified pulmonary nodules helps guide difficult clinical discussions, accelerates diagnosis and prevents unnecessary invasive procedures. Adding CyPath® Lung to the diagnostic pathway provides actionable results to physicians, eases anxiety for patients, and can reduce costs to the healthcare system.”

CyPath® Lung is a noninvasive, cost-effective diagnostic test that uses flow cytometry and AI to analyze the lung microenvironment and identify cancer and cancer-related cells. Clinical data and case studies have shown its potential to detect cancer as early as Stage 1A, while a negative result can help avert unnecessary and often risky invasive procedures.

With both high sensitivity and specificity, CyPath® Lung is a balanced test that supports clinical decision-making and is broadly applicable in high-risk patients, regardless of nodule size or prior cancer history. Initially designed to assist in the evaluation of indeterminate pulmonary nodules identified through screening or incidental imaging, CyPath® Lung can also be used to monitor lung cancer survivors for recurrence.

About CyPath® Lung

CyPath® Lung by bioAffinity Technologies is a noninvasive test designed to aid in the early detection of lung cancer in patients at high risk for the disease. CyPath® Lung uses advanced flow cytometry and proprietary artificial intelligence (AI) to identify cell populations in patient sputum that may indicate malignancy. CyPath® Lung incorporates a fluorescent porphyrin that is preferentially taken up by cancer and cancer-related cells. CyPath® Lung demonstrated 92% sensitivity, 87% specificity and 88% accuracy in detecting lung cancer in patients at high risk for the disease who had small indeterminate lung nodules less than 20 millimeters. Results may vary in broader clinical use.
