AUSTIN, Texas — February 10, 2021 — Aspira Women’s Health, Inc. (Nasdaq: AWH), a bioanalytical-based women’s health company, today announced they will incorporate management recommendations from NCCN Guidelines® into our Aspira GenetiXTM Clinical reports. Aspira GenetiX is our personalized hereditary cancer genetic risk testing service that offers panels specifically curated to detect pathogenic variants in genes known to confer a significant increase in the risk for gynecologic cancer including endometrial, ovarian, and cervical cancers.
“The addition of these guideline-based recommendations directly to our clinical report is an invaluable tool for our providers and a key differentiator vs other genetic testing offerings,” said Jessica Greenwood, MS, CGC, Senior Director of Clinical Implementation and Innovation. “The approved use of these guidelines elevates our product in the field and demonstrates our deep commitment to transform women’s health by supporting providers in identifying, managing, and treating ALL women who have the highest risk of developing a gynecologic cancer.”
In addition, referencing NCCN Guidelines content into our clinical report represents the quality of our offerings as NCCN is considered to be the preeminent voice in the field of oncology and has significant influence over clinical decision-making as well as payer coverage decisions.
