(reducing diagnostic odyssey)

Holistic and Ethnically Diversified Data


• Capture full ethnic and hereditary drivers of disease with patients from over 115 countries

• Include proteomic and metabolomic data, with over 10 million unique variants and over 3,500 diseases-
associated phenotypes

• Fully curated clinical information to supplement genetic data, covering 12 therapeutic areas, which include over
3,100 diseases

• Well-known databases (ClinVar / HGMD) have limited utility


Disease Monitoring

• Improved treatment by individualized dosing (precision medicine) based on biomarkers, with 10 biomarkers
commercialized and over 30 biomarkers under development

• Support in demonstrating efficacy for drug regulatory approval – e.g. A paper published in June 2019 in
further confirmed that Lyso-Gb1 has the potential to be used as an accurate biomarker for monitoring children
suffering from Gaucher disease
