#portfolionews I We're thrilled to share that our #portfolio company in.bio.motion has expanded commercialization of MAF-TEST® to #Africa 👇 

 🤝 Inbiomotion and The Scientific Group sign an exclusive distribution agreement of MAF Test® for the #SubSaharan #Africa

🎯Thanks to this agreement, MAF Test® will now be available in Sub-Saharan Africa and, considering just South Africa, it could increase the survival of 8 out of 10 of the 10,200 early-stage #breastcancer patients diagnosed each year.

👩‍🔬 The MAF-TEST® #predicts the #prognosis of breast cancer patients and helps oncologists to #identify those patients who may be able to #prevent #recurrence and benefit from #adjuvant treatment with #bisphosphonates, which are commonly used to treat osteoporosis. The test also identifies those patients whose prognosis would worsen if treated with bisphosphonates.

#portfolionews I  📌 Excellent news for our #portfolio company in.bio.motion currently commercializing its proprietary MAF-TEST®, a novel tool, backed by level 1B clinical evidence, with the potential to guide #bisphosphonate use in adjuvant breast cancer

 🔝 A team from IRB Barcelona Barcelona led by ICREA researcher Dr. Roger Gomis, co-founder of in.bio.motion, has revealed the mechanism by which the #MAF protein increases the risk of #metastasis in #breastcancer patients. This finding is a crucial step in understanding the molecular basis of metastasis and has relevant clinical implications for treatment.

🔬 The MAF protein interacts with the estrogen receptor, alters its function, and promotes the spread of cancer.

🎯 Results open the possibility of an additional clinical utility of MAF Test®.

🗣 “This study opens the possibility of preventing metastasis by preventing the activation of pro-metastatic genes. This offers new perspectives in the treatment of breast cancer and the clinical utility of MAF-TEST® could be extended to select high-risk patients for extended hormonal therapy and for selecting patients to be included in clinical trials to test the use of new class of drugs -SERDs- in the adjuvant setting as is being carried out by various global pharmaceutical companies.” said Roger Gomis
