Personalis Inc Receives Medicare Coverage for Next Personal for Immunotherapy Monitoring Across Late-Stage Solid Tumors Personalis, Inc. announced that the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services’ Molecular Diagnostic Services Program (MolDX) has expanded coverage for the company’s NeXT Personal minimal residual disease (MRD) test to include immunotherapy monitoring for patients with late-stage solid tumors. This coverage determination is underpinned by landmark clinical evidence generated in collaboration with the Vall d’Hebron Institute of Oncology (VHIO). The recently published study demonstrated that NeXT Personal’s ultrasensitivity allows for ongoing evaluation of treatment response and the prediction of clinical outcomes in patients undergoing immunotherapy. By tracking tumor dynamics, the test can identify molecular responders and non-responders ahead of traditional radiologic imaging. Immunotherapy has revolutionized cancer care, with several hundred thousand patients in the US receiving immunotherapy per year, yet treatment response remains variable. Identifying which patients are responding and which are not is critical for optimizing therapeutic pathways, minimizing unnecessary toxicity, and managing the high costs associated with these advanced therapies. NeXT Personal leverages whole-genome sequencing and advanced noise-suppression technology to achieve sensitivity down to 1 part per million (PPM). By tracking up to ~1,800 patient-specific mutations, the assay provides a high-resolution view of a patient’s unique tumor profile. In the immunotherapy setting, where inflammatory responses can often complicate the interpretation of traditional scans (a phenomenon known as pseudoprogression), NeXT Personal provides a clear, molecular signal of true disease burden. The VHIO data shows that immunotherapy monitoring with a highly sensitive, quantitative test like NeXT Personal can help physicians and patients understand treatment response with more precision, including situations where imaging results can be ambiguous. This coverage gives physicians another tool for proactively managing immunotherapy. Announcement • May 08

Personalis Inc Highlights Clinical Impact of Ultrasensitive CtDNA Monitoring and New Therapy Resistance Tracking Personalis, Inc. announced the successful presentation of clinical data at the American Association for Cancer Research Annual Meeting. The data, spanning one oral podium presentation and three posters, underscore the use of the NeXT Personal ultrasensitive ctDNA assay in monitoring treatment response, identifying early recurrence, and tracking the emergence of therapy resistance. A highlight was the oral podium presentation of the NEOPRISM-CRC trial, delivered by Dr. Jiang from the University College London, which utilized NeXT Personal to monitor patients with high-risk stage II-III dMMR/MSI-H colorectal cancer (CRC) receiving neoadjuvant pembrolizumab. In addition to 100% sensitivity for disease at baseline, the study identified three distinct groups of patient response to neoadjuvant treatment: super molecular responders, dynamic molecular responders, and poor molecular responders. Notably, 100% of super molecular responders—those who cleared ctDNA by the second cycle of treatment—also achieved pathological complete response (pCR). Conversely, of poor molecular responders—patients with relatively stable ctDNA levels during neoadjuvant treatment—100% did not achieve pCR. These findings could provide clinicians with a critical window to adjust treatment strategies prior to surgery. Post-surgery, the test achieved a 100% negative predictive value (NPV) and 100% specificity for disease relapse. In a large-scale analysis of nearly 25,000 plasma samples from 10,000 real-world patients, NeXT Personal demonstrated consistent ultrasensitive performance with a median limit of detection of 1.92 PPM. The study also revealed that 39% of all positive MRD detections occurred in the ultrasensitive range below 100 PPM, with 14.6% below 10 PPM—detections that could be missed with less sensitive assays. This study also highlights the robust ultrasensitive performance of the NeXT Personal assay in real-world testing conditions across more than 14 cancer types, stage I-IV disease, and a variety of challenging sample types. Personalis also debuted analytical validation and real-world data for a new opt-in feature of its NeXT Personal MRD test: Real-Time Variant Tracker. This feature allows for the simultaneous monitoring of MRD and the longitudinal tracking of specific resistance-associated mutations, such as ESR1. With a specificity of >99.9%, resistance and other clinical mutations were identified in 38% of MRD-positive patients across the real-world cohort, offering a new tool for tracking treatment resistance as it emerges. The DARWIN 2 study results in metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) demonstrated NeXT Personal’s ability to stratify risk in patients receiving immunotherapy. Patients who achieved a durable molecular complete response (dmCR) remained 100% progression-free at three years, whereas patients who failed to achieve molecular clearance were five times more likely to experience disease progression. Together, these studies illustrate Personalis’ commitment to improving cancer management through ultrasensitive MRD testing throughout the patient journey. Announcement • Apr 03

Personalis Inc Announces New Publication Advancing Neoadjuvant Treatment Monitoring in Breast Cancer with Next Personal Personalis, Inc. announced the publication of the PREDICT-DNA study in the Journal of Clinical Oncology. The article, "The Pathologic Response Evaluation and Detection In Circulating Tumor-DNA (PREDICT-DNA) study: Ultrasensitive ctDNA Assessment of Breast Cancer Minimal Residual Disease," showed that ultrasensitive molecular residual disease (MRD) testing with NeXT Personal can perform better than current standard approaches in predicting patient outcomes following neoadjuvant therapy (NAT). The prospective study followed 227 patients with Triple-Negative (TNBC) and HER2+ breast cancer across more than 24 US cancer centers. The results demonstrate the ability of NeXT Personal to provide a more precise risk-stratification for patients who have received NAT. A key finding of the study was the necessity of the ultrasensitive range for accurately tracking patient response to neoadjuvant therapy. Of note, 55% of all ctDNA detections following NAT occurred at levels below 100 parts per million, detections that could be missed with less sensitive tests. Key study highlights include: High Prognostic Power: Detectable ctDNA post-NAT was associated with a 4 to 9 times higher likelihood of relapse. Superior to Traditional Metrics: In multivariate analyses, ctDNA status was the most significant independent prognostic signal, performing better than nodal status, tumor grade, and pathologic complete response (pCR) status. In addition, ctDNA detection post-NAT was a stronger predictor of recurrence than pCR status. Identification of Low Risk: Patients who were ctDNA-negative post-NAT showed excellent outcomes, regardless of pCR status. Post-Surgical Relapse Prediction: Patients with detectable ctDNA up to 12 months post-surgery were more than 100 times more likely to experience disease recurrence. The findings reinforce the NeXT Personal test’s ability to detect ctDNA at ultrasensitive levels, providing a window for earlier clinical intervention that other approaches may miss. The NeXT Personal test achieves ultrasensitive detection of small traces of ctDNA from a patient’s blood sample using a personalized approach that tracks up to ~1,800 tumor-specific variants unique to each patient’s tumor.

Personalis, Inc. Receives Medicare Coverage for NeXT Personal®? in Lung Cancer Surveillance Personalis, Inc. announced Medicare coverage for the company's NeXT Personal molecular residual disease (MRD) test for surveillance of patients with Stage I to III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This coverage determination is grounded in clinical evidence generated through the company's collaboration with the TRACERx (TRAcking Cancer Evolution through therapy (Rx)) consortium. Data from this world-renowned longitudinal study, recently published in Cell, demonstrated NeXT Personal's ability to identify residual disease with high accuracy, validating the test's clinical performance in lung cancer. Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer death in the United States, with an estimated ~230,000 new cases diagnosed annually. For patients with Stage I-III NSCLC, the risk of recurrence remains a primary clinical concern. To address this challenge, NeXT Personal is designed to detect trace amounts of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) that can indicate the presence of cancer, often before the cancer appears on standard of care imaging scans.

Personalis, Inc. Announces New Publication Expanding Evidence for Ultras sensitive ctDNA Monitoring of Cancer Immunotherapy Response Across Solid Tumors Personalis, Inc. announced the publication of a new study in nasensitive molecular residual disease (MRD) assay, NeXT Personal®?, in monitoring immunotherapy response across a broad range of advanced cancers. The study, titled "Ultrasensitive ctDNA monitoring reveals early predictors of immunotherapy response in advanced cancer," was led by oncology researchers at UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center. The findings reinforce the NeXT Personal test's ability to detect circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) at ultra-compre comprehensive levels, providing a window for earlier clinical intervention that other approaches may miss. The NeXT Personal test achieves ultrasensitive detection of small traces of ctDNA from a patient's blood sample using a personalized approach that tracks up to 1,800 tumor-specific variants unique to each patient's tumor. While immunotherapy has transformed cancer care, only 10-40% of patients achieve durable benefit, making it critical to monitor how patients are responding to therapy. This interim analysis of the ongoing study includes 39 patients with advanced solid tumors--ac across nine different cancer types--treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors alone or in combination with other therapies. Key findings include: Early identification of therapy response: Molecular response--defined by ctDNA dynamics--was detectable early, a median of 23 days after starting immunotherapy. The company aim to drive a new paradigm for cancer management, guiding care throughout the patient journey. The company highly sensitive assays combine tumor-and-normal profiling with proprietary algorithms to deliver advanced insights even as cancer evolves over time. The company products are designed to detect minimal residual disease (MRD) and recurrence at the earliest timepoints, enable selection of targeted therapies based on ultra-compre comprehensive genomic profiling, and enhance biomarker strategy for drug development.

Personalis, Inc. Publishes Landmark Tracerx Lung Cancer Study in Cell, Demonstrating Ultrasensitive Ctdna Detection Months to Years Ahead of Imaging Personalis, Inc. announced the publication of one of the largest and most comprehensive patient cohorts to date from the landmark TRACERx study, in the journal Cell. The study, titled "Longitudinal ultrasensitive ctDNA monitoring for high-resolution lung cancer risk prediction," demonstrates the clinical importance of ultrasensitive, tumor-informed molecular residual disease (MRD) testing in stage I to III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The study, led by Professor Charles Swanton at the Francis Crick Institute and University College London (UCL) in collaboration with Personalis, analyzed 431 NSCLC patients tracked for a median of > 5 years using the NeXT Personal® test. It demonstrated that the NeXT Personal test allows for highly sensitive detection of small traces of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in blood samples from lung cancer diagnosis through to surveillance, even in hard-to-detect subtypes. Key Findings: Comprehensive Cancer Detection From Diagnosis Through Surveillance: NeXT Personal demonstrated exceptional sensitivity and specificity for detecting residual and recurrent cancer throughout the patient course at diagnosis (pre-surgery), post-surgical (landmark), during adjuvant, and during long-term surveillance monitoring, with many of the detections (~36-43%) in the ultrasensitive range. Cancer Detection Ahead of Imaging: Cancer was detected a median of ~5 to ~9 months and up to ~57 months ahead of standard of care imaging post-surgery and during surveillance. Ultrasensitive Detection and Risk Stratification: The study demonstrated NeXT Personal detection of ctDNA pre-treatment, post-surgery, and during surveillance was associated with higher risk of relapse and worse overall survival. The study also identified an intermediate risk patient subgroup with ultrasensitive ctDNA detections that can benefit from close clinical follow-up. Therapy Monitoring: Patients who did not clear their ctDNA during adjuvant chemotherapy were > 5 times more likely to relapse than those who cleared their ctDNA. The study utilized Personalis’ NeXT Personal technology, which leverages whole-genome sequencing and proprietary noise suppression to detect ctDNA at levels down to ~1 PPM. The Cell publication highlights that a significant portion of relapsing patients presented with ctDNA levels in the ultrasensitive range, detections which can be missed with less sensitive tests.

Personalis, Inc. Announces New Data from an Astrazeneca Phase 3 Clinical Trial in Lung Cancer (Neoadaura) Personalis, Inc. announced new data from an AstraZeneca phase 3 clinical trial in lung cancer (NeoADAURA). The findings demonstrate that Personalis' highly sensitive molecular residual disease (MRD) test, NeXT Personal®?, is a strong predictor of outcomes in patients with stage II-IIIb, EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) receiving neoadjuvant therapy. The findings, which will be presented at the IASLC 2025 World Conference on Lung Cancer hosted by the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer in Barcelona, Spain on September 7 (abstract OA02.02), demonstrate that NeXT Personal can be a more sensitive and accurate measure of MRD in the neoadjuvant setting. This supports findings in other cancer types that NeXT Personal can help doctors understand how patients are responding to neoadjuvant therapy, with the potential to guide future treatment decisions. Key findings about NeXT Personal from the new NeoADAURA analysis: More sensitive: NeXT Personal demonstrated significantly higher baseline sensitivity for ctDNA detection compared to another gene-mutation based test, providing a more accurate assessment of disease burden. Prognostic: Baseline MRD status, as determined by NeXT Personal, was a strong prognosticator of clinical outcomes across all treatment arms. Associates with pathological response: Pre-surgical MRD negativity and clearance on the NeXT Personal test were shown to be associated with major pathological response (MPR). useful for monitoring treatment: Osimertinib-containing regimens improved pre-surgical MRD clearance vs pbo+CT, showing the utility of ctDNA for monitoring neoadjuvant therapy response. The NeoADAURA trial (NCT04351555) is a global, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, multi-center study of neoadjuvant osimertinib with or without chemotherapy versus placebo plus chemotherapy for patients with resesectable EGFRm NSCLC. This collaboration also builds on previous work with AstraZeneca showing the importance of highly sensitive ctDNA analysis for tracking treatment response and predicting cancer recurrence.

Personalis' NeXT Personal®? Predicts Cervical Cancer Recurrence Risk in New CallA Phase 3 Study Analysis Personalis Inc. announced the presentation of new results from the callA phase 3 study showing for the first time its ultrasensitive NeXT Personal circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) blood test detected cervical cancer progression, up to 16 months ahead of imaging. The results demonstrate the potential of NeXT Personal to enable earlier detection in a cancer with high recurrence rates. The results were presented on June 3, 2025 by Jyoti Mayadev, MD, from the University of California San Diego, at the American Society for Clinical Oncology (ASCO) 2025 Annual Meeting in Chicago in an oral presentation titled "Ultrasensitive detection and tracking of circulating tumor DNA (ct DNA) and association with relapse and survival in locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC): Phase 3 callA trial analyses." The results from this study were also simultaneously published in the journal Annals of Oncology. Samples were analyzed from patients with cervical cancer who had enrolled in the original callA clinical trial. In this new study analysis, NeXT Personal was used to look for small traces of ctDNA in blood samples from a cohort of 186 patients with locally advanced cervical cancer. Dr. Mayadev's team found that overall ctDNA levels after chemoradiotherapy (CRT) treatment were strongly predictive of risk of cervical cancer progression. "Despite standard chemoradiotherapy, up to half of patients with locally advanced cervical cancer relapse, underscoring the urgent need for better prognostic tools. In the callA phase 3 study, ultrasensitive, tumor-informed ctDNA analysis emerged as a powerful predictor of progression and survival--detecting relapse up to 16 months before imaging. These findings highlight ctDNA's potential to guide treatment decisions and personalize care in high-risk cervical cancer," said Dr. Mayadev. Key findings presented: Detection of ctDNA following CRT was independently prognostic of patient outcomes. Company products are designed to detect minimal residual disease (MRD) and recurrent cancer early (including detection earlier than standard of care imaging), monitor or predict a patient's response to therapy or risk of cancer recurrence, accurately predict clinical outcomes for cancer patients, or impact cancer care or management (including for escalation or de-escalation of treatment), or to the clinical adoption or use of, or the ability of Personalis to obtain Medicare coverage or reimbursement for, the NeXT Personal test, or to the sufficiency of the publication and study results described in this press release to support such adoption, use, coverage or reimbursement.

Personalis, Inc. Launches NeXT Personal DX for Early Access Clinical Use in Residual Disease and Recurrence Detection in Cancer Personalis, Inc. announced the launch of the Early Access Program for NeXT Personal Dx, a tumor-informed, whole genome-based liquid biopsy laboratory developed test (LDT) for detection of molecular residual disease (MRD) and recurrence in cancer. Designed to help oncologists detect cancer recurrence earlier and aid in treatment decision-making, NeXT Personal Dx is poised to reshape the clinical use of MRD testing by delivering unmatched sensitivity down to the level of one circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) molecule in a million. NeXT Personal Dx features: Unpre unprecedented sensitivity and specificity: analytical sensitivity, detecting down to ~1 PPM (parts per million) or 1x10-6 tumor fraction and >99.9% analytical specificity; Whole genome-based tumor-informed assay: Selects up to 1,800 variants to design a highly sensitive and specific personalized tumor signature for each patient; NeXT SENSE technology: Proprietary Signal Enhancement and Noise Suppression Engine that, together with the personalized tumor signature, enables ultra-sensitive detection. The NeXT Personal Dx test is currently available through an Early Access Program to a limited number of clinical customers as the company builds clinical evidence and achieves Medicare reimbursement. The EAP will enable oncologists to access NeXT Personal Dx for clinical use, with a focus on lung cancer, breast cancer, and immunotherapy response monitoring. Personalis also recently announced data from the groundbreaking TRACERx study investigating the use of NeXT Personal in early-stage lung cancer for MRD and recurrence detection. Personalis, along with collaborators from Cancer Research UK's Cancer Research Horizons, University College London (UCL), and the Francis Crick Institute, presented data at the 2023 European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress showing the ability of NeXT Personal to detect lung cancer more sensitively and identify cancer recurrence with a median lead time of approximately 6 to 11 months ahead of traditional imaging, and significantly longer than previous TRACERx results.

Personalis, Inc. Announces the Presentation of Initial Findings from Its Work with the Tracerx Lung Cancer Study Personalis, Inc. announced the presentation of initial findings from its work with the TRACERx lung cancer study, marking a substantial advancement in lung cancer circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) detection and management. Thealis NeXT Personal cancer assay, created to detect and monitor residual and recurrent disease (MRD), demonstrated significantly improved detection rates for early-stage lung cancer, including lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), one of the most common and challenging subtypes of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) to identify in blood samples. The findings come from an analysis by Professor Charles Swanton, Dr. James Black, and other members of the TRACERx consortium, renowned for their work on the complexities of cancer genomics. The findings were presented by Dr. Black at the 2023 European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress on October 21 in Madrid, Spain, and are the first publicly presented results from Personalis' collaboration with Cancer Research UK's Cancer Research Horizons, University College London (UCL), and the Francis Crick Institute. Lung cancer is the second most common cancer in the U.S., with an estimated 238,000 new cases and approximately 127,000 deaths forecasted for 2023. The current standard of care for relapse detection of NSCLC, the most common type of lung cancer, is primarily focused on imaging modalities such as CT scans, which are known to be limited in sensitivity. This ongoing collaboration is focused on addressing this challenge through advanced ctDNA analysis. For the current analysis, the teams used NeXT Personal to identify and track MRD in over 170 patients from the TRACERx cohort. In this analysis, NeXT Personal showed significantly higher sensitivity in early-stage NSCLC patients compared to two previous publications on the TRACERx cohort; Pre-surgery, the assay demonstrated 100% sensitivity for ctDNA in pre-surgical non-LUAD samples and 81% pre-surgical ctDNA sensitivity for LUAD, one of the most common types of lung cancer but also one of the most challenging to detect in blood. The pre-surgical sensitivity for early-stage LUAD was up to 4X higher than in previous studies on the TRACERx cohorts, depending on stage. This high sensitivity enhanced the assay's ability to detect recurrence and monitor lung cancer effectively. Ability to identify low and high recurrence risk prior to surgery; The study demonstrated that pre-surgical ct DNA levels with NeXT Personal could be used to classify early-stage lung cancer patients into lower- and higher-recurrence risk groups. Furthermore, the analysis showed that the ultra-low levels of ctDNA detection enabled by NeXT Personal were critical to determining patient recurrence risk. For example, LUAD patients who were ctDNA-negative before surgery with NeXT Personal strikingly exhibited a 100% 5-year overall survival rate and 94% relapse-free survival rate in the TRACERx cohort". In comparison, patients who were ctDNA -positive prior to surgery had a high risk of cancer recurrence over 5 years. The NeXT Personal technology leverages whole genome sequencing and advanced noise suppression with NeXT SENSE? technology to identify a unique genetic signature derived from a patient's tumor based on up to 1,800 variants. This unique signature is tracked in the patient's blood over time to find residual or recurrent cancer, achieving an sensitivity of down to 1 PPM. This enhanced sensitivity offers the potential for earlier recurrence risk assessment and intervention, earlier detection, more precise monitoring, and substantial advancement in lung cancer care. "Pat patients often live in fear of undetected cancer leading to a relapse. Company new assay is a transformative leap forward--it's like turning on a spotlight in a previously dark room. It finds what other tests often miss, providing a new level of certainty and peace of mind. This isn't just about technology; it's about giving patients and their families a clearer level of confidence. Announcement • Oct 20

New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 5.7% 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 Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 3 years (US$77m net loss in 3 years). Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (12% average weekly change). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (5.7% increase in shares outstanding). Market cap is less than US$100m (US$99.5m market cap). Announcement • Aug 10
