Predictive Oncology (NASDAQ: POAI), a data and
artificial-intelligence- (“AI”) driven, discovery-services company that
provides predictive models of tumor drug response to improve clinical outcomes
for patients, recently issued an update regarding its groundbreaking
CancerQuest 2020 initiative driven by its Helomics subsidiary (http://ibn.fm/gs5Qh). Per the
update, the company intends to have its first predictive model of ovarian
cancer prepared for initial commercialization in the first quarter of 2020. An
article discussing the company reads, “‘We believe that this effort will
enhance our understanding of the molecular profiles of women with ovarian
cancer by using the power of artificial intelligence to create predictive
models of therapeutic success,’ said Dr. Robert Edwards, professor and chair of
the Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Sciences in the
University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine (http://ibn.fm/I7qrx). ‘We are excited about the potential
for AI-powered, evidence-based decision-making to increase our ability to bring
about successful outcomes.’ . . . In addition, Helomics intends to sequence 50%
of its 38,000-plus ovarian tumors in the upcoming year, creating what may be
the world’s first comprehensive, actionable multi-omic data set for ovarian
cancer. And Helomics doesn’t plan on stopping there. The company is already
evaluating ways to sequence other cancers types in its database to build
additional AI-driven predictive models, strengthening the company’s presence in
both the clinical and research markets.”

About Predictive Oncology Inc.
Predictive Oncology operates through five segments
(domestic, international, clinical, CRO and D-CHIP), which contain four
subsidiaries; Helomics, TumorGenesis, Skyline Medical and Skyline Europe.
Helomics applies artificial intelligence to its rich data gathered from patient
tumors to both personalize cancer therapies for patients and drive the
development of new targeted therapies in collaborations with pharmaceutical
companies. Helomics’ CLIA-certified lab provides clinical testing that assists oncologists
in individualizing patient-treatment decisions, by providing an evidence-based
road map for therapy. In addition to its proprietary precision-oncology
platform, Helomics offers boutique CRO services that leverage its TruTumor(TM),
patient-derived tumor models coupled to a wide range of multi-omics assays
(genomics, proteomics and biochemical), and an AI-powered proprietary
bioinformatics platform (D- CHIP) to provide a tailored solution to its
clients’ specific needs. Predictive Oncology’s TumorGenesis subsidiary is
developing a new rapid approach to growing tumors in the laboratory, which
essentially “fools” cancer cells into thinking they are still growing inside a
patient. Its proprietary Oncology Discovery Technology Platform kits will assist
researchers and clinicians in identifying which cancer cells bind to specific
biomarkers. Once the biomarkers are identified, they can be used in
TumorGenesis’ Oncology Capture Technology Platforms, which isolate and help
categorize an individual patient’s heterogeneous tumor samples to enable the
development of patient-specific treatment options. Helomics and TumorGenesis
are focused on ovarian cancer. Predictive Oncology’s Skyline Medical division
markets its patented and FDA-cleared STREAMWAY System, which automates the
collection, measurement and disposal of waste fluid, including blood,
irrigation fluid and others, within a medical facility, through both domestic
and international divisions. The company has achieved sales in five of the
seven continents through both direct sales and distributor partners. For more
