New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 4.7% This is considered a minor risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Minor Risks Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (4.7% increase in shares outstanding).

Genetron Health Limited Receives CE Mark for 8-Gene Lung Cancer Assay and Provides FDA Reference Panel Comparative Data of its SARS-CoV-2 RNA Test Genetron Holdings Limited announced that it has received CE Mark for its 8-gene Lung Cancer Assay. Separately, the Company also reported comparative data showing the sensitivity performance of the Genetron SARS-CoV-2 RNA Test. The CE Mark represents the second regulatory milestone for 8-gene Lung Cancer Assay, as it is already approved by China’s NMPA and is being commercialized in China. This product is based on the Company’s proprietary One-Step Seq Method, offering fast and easy-to-use testing procedures, that is suitable for independent operation within hospitals. With the One-Step Seq technology, the library construction process is finished in one step of reaction, minimizing manual operation to one mixture of reagents with DNA/cDNA. The chance of contamination in the process is minimal with the “sample in library out” workflow. The assay is compatible with the Genetron S5 sequencing platform, and together they offer a two-day turnaround time from sample to report. The 8-gene Lung Cancer Assay covers mutations of EGFR, BRAF, KRAS, HER2 and PIK3CA, translocations of ALK and ROS1, and MET exon 14 skipping, and 7 of these genes are recommended biomarkers by the 2018 NCCN guideline for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) patients. Several targeted therapy drugs such as Gefitinib, Osimertinib, Crizotinib and Savolitinib have been approved by the NMPA for treatments of NSCLC patients with those genomic alterations. Separately, the Company also reported comparative performance data of its SARS-CoV-2 RNA Test based on a SARS-CoV-2 reference panel established by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The goal of the reference panel is to allow for a more precise comparison of the analytical performance of different molecular in vitro diagnostic (IVD) assays intended to detect SARS-CoV-2. Results from the blind testing of this panel showed that the sensitivity or limit of detection (LoD) of Genetron’s SARS-CoV-2 RNA Test was 1,800 NDU/mL, which was the best among all domestic companies in China in the same category, and also fared well compared to global companies.

Genetron Holdings Limited Receives U.S. FDA Breakthrough Device Designation for its Blood-based NGS Test for Early Detection of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Genetron Holdings Limited announced that its blood-based next-generation sequencing (NGS) test, HCCscreenTM, has been granted Breakthrough Device designation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Based on the correspondence with Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) of the FDA, HCCscreenTM is intended for early detection of hepatocellular carcinoma in individuals who are designated to be at high-risk for HCC due to chronic HBV infection and/or liver cirrhosis. Under the FDA’s Breakthrough Devices Program, the Breakthrough Device designation is granted for products that have the potential to offer more effective diagnosis of life-threatening diseases with an unmet medical need. The program is designed to speed up development, assessment and review processes, in order to provide patients with quicker access to those devices. Genetron Health’s HCCscreenTM was granted based on its superior clinical performance over the current standard of care (i.e., ultrasound plus alpha-fetoprotein (AFP)) in a prospective clinical study. With this designation, the Company will have an opportunity to interact with the FDA’s experts to efficiently address topics through the pre-submission process, so as to receive feedback from the FDA and identify areas of agreement in a timely way. It also allows priority review upon premarket approval (PMA) submission, and Medicare coverage by the CMS (Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services) upon formal approval. Genetron Health intends to develop HCCscreenTM as an NGS-based product in the US. The company is also building a lab in Maryland, which it intends to seek CLIA certification, to serve global pharmaceutical companies on R&D and commercialization. In China, HCCscreenTM has recently been commercialized as a lab developed test (LDT). The Company has five laboratories in China, of which the Beijing lab is one of the few domestic labs that are both CAP and CLIA certified. HCCscreen is powered by Genetron Health’s innovative and proprietary Mutation CapsuleTM technology, which enables detection of multiple methylation alterations in parallel with mutations in cell-free DNA from peripheral blood specimens. Currently, HCCscreen is being tested in its ongoing prospective study with 4,500 HBsAg+ individuals. As of the date of this announcement, 2,000 patients have already completed the study, and preliminary data from 297 patients at one center has demonstrated over 92% sensitivity and 93% specificity, compared to 67% and 99%, respectively in the ultrasound + AFP arm. HCCscreen also achieved a 35% positive predictive value and 99.6% negative predictive value. Furthermore, stratifying by tumor sizes, of the 12 patients identified with HCC in the preliminary dataset, ten patients had tumor sizes of less than five centimeters, indicating HCCscreenTM’s detection ability in early-stage HCCs. The company expects to announce the full data set from all 2,000 patients in the first half of 2021. お知らせ • Sep 26
Genetron Holdings Limited and Cstone Pharmaceuticals Announce Launch of Clinical Trial in China for Companion Diagnostic Test in Development for Avapritinib Genetron Holdings Limited and its strategic partner CStone Pharmaceuticals announced the launch of a multi-center clinical trial in China for the joint development of a companion diagnostic (CDx) test for avapritinib. This represents a key milestone in the companies’ collaboration. Avapritinib is a kinase inhibitor discovered by CStone’s partner Blueprint Medicines. Genetron Health and CStone are jointly developing a CDx kit to detect the D842V mutation in the human platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha (PDGFRA) gene using a polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based method. The CDx test kit utilizes a real-time PCR fluorescent probe, combined with specific primers, Taqman probes, and highly specific Taq enzymes, to detect the mutation with high specificity and sensitivity in DNA samples. The test has been validated by the testing center of the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) and is now being used in this multi-center clinical trial in China. CStone submitted New Drug Applications for avapritinib in PDGFRA exon 18 mutant gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) to regulatory agencies in Taiwan and Mainland China in March and April 2020, respectively. The Chinese regulatory application has been accepted by the Center for Drug Evaluation (CDE) of NMPA for priority review. Data from the Phase I/II bridging study of avapritinib presented at the Chinese Society of Clinical Oncology (CSCO) annual meeting in 2020 showed that avapritinib was generally well tolerated in Chinese patients, with a safety profile that is consistent with previously published results in global studies. Preliminary results demonstrated the robust clinical activity of avapritinib in Chinese patients with GIST harboring the PDGFRA D842V mutation. Among the eight evaluable patients with PDGFRA D842V mutant GIST who received 300 mg QD doses of avapritinib, all of the patients had evidence of tumor regression in target lesions, and five patients achieved a partial response. The overall response rate (ORR) was 62.5%. The other three patients had stable disease. Is New 90 Day High Low • Sep 22
