621-200 ExoDx™ Prostate (Intelliscore)
" ExoDx™ Prostate Test” (Intelliscore) is a non-DRE urine-based liquid biopsy test indicated for men 50 years of age and older with a PSA 2 – 10 ng/mL being considered for an initial prostate biopsy. A patient-specific risk score is calculated based on a proprietary algorithm that combines the weighted expression of a three-gene signature in exosomal RNA. A score above the cut point is associated with an increased likelihood of GS ≥ 7 PCa on subsequent biopsy. Physicians can utilize the result in conjunction with other standard of care prognostic information to determine whether to proceed with a tissue biopsy."

Does The EPI Test distinguish between GS6 and GS7 and higher prostate cancer?
Yes. The EPI Test is optimized as a rule out test to distinguish high grade prostate cancer (defi ned as GS7 and above) from low grade prostate cancer. Patients above the cut-point of 15.6 are associated with high risk of high grade prostate cancer. Patients below the cut-point of 15.6 are associated with lower risk of high grade prostate cancer. Reference Figure 1 to see the likelihood of fi nding HGPCa in the intended use population.

It is well known that prostate cancer is the 2nd leading cause of cancer in men with >1 million new cases and 300,000 deaths.1
The Unmet Clinical Need in Prostate Cancer:Although Prostate Specifi c Antigen (PSA) screening is part of standard of care (SOC), its benefi ts have caused debate in recent years. The United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) changed its guidelines in 2018 advising men 55-69 years to make an informed choice and discuss with their doctor whether PSA screening is right for them, while recommending against screening for men over 70 years of age. This change in guidance came about after a review of published data of 1.9 million men on the use of PSA testing to screen for cancer based on the potential harms and benefi ts for PSA screening.
Limitations of PSA might include:• Low sensitivity and specifi city for prostate cancer• PSA levels can be increased by benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prostatic infl ammation or lower urinary tract infection• When PSA results are in the “gray zone”, other factors such as age, family history, ethnicity and digital rectal examination (DRE)
factor into the shared decision-making discussion regarding prostate biopsy• PSA cannot distinguish high grade from low grade cancer and is not prostate cancer specifi cImportantly the increased detection of Prostate Cancer has led to over-treatment including potentially unnecessary biopsies.
When there is uncertainty about proceeding with a biopsy, The EPI Test may be a solution. Clinical studies show The EPI Test can help avoid 27% of biopsies3 in patients with PSA levels in the gray zone (2-10 ng/mL). EPI results can be part of your best practices to send the right patient to the right intervention at the right time.
EXODx Prostate IntelliScore (EPI): A simple urine test for risk assessment of High-Grade Prostate Cancer (HGPCa)
Likelihood of fi nding HGPCa on biopsy in intended use population3,4
The EPI Test performed the same in two prospective validation studies published in top-tier peer-reviewed journals in over 1000 patients3,4
This chart represents >1000 patients who were candidates for initial biopsy. All patients were in the intended use population (50 years of age or older, and PSA 2-10ng/mL).
Key Points:
• Every patient in this data is in the intended use population (PSA 2-10ng/mL, presenting with initial biopsy, and 50 years and above)
• Consider age group relative to EPI score and Risk when interpreting results
These charts represent pooled analysis of two prospective validation studies with over 1000 subjects (JAMA Oncology 2016 and European Urology 2018)
EPI score ranges are proportional to increased percent likelihood for HGPCa

Patients
Key Points:
• EPI was able to accurately classify patients that were not likely to need a biopsy (Gleason 6/ISUP1) with a score of 15.6 or less. Note the density of blue below the cut point (indicating ISUP1/benign)
• EPI was able to accurately classify patients that were more likely to need a biopsy (Gleason 7/GG2) with a score of 15.6. Note the high density of yellow and red color above the cut point, indicating Gleason 7 and above (indicating higher grade group and need for biopsy)

What is the Negative Predictive Value (NPV)? Negative Predictive Value is a statistical measure that says how confi dent we are about a negative outcome. In the case of The EPI Test, an NPV of 91% means we are 91% certain that the patient will not have HGPCa at a cut point of 15.6 or less.
What is the sensitivity of The EPI Test? The sensitivity of The EPI Test is 92%. The sensitivity measures the proportion of actual GS7 and above that are correctly identifi ed as positive
What is the cut-point used to determine high risk vs. lower risk? The EPI Test has been validated using a cut point of 15.6 to determine when patients are at lower risk for high grade prostate cancer, defi ned as Gleason 7(3+4) or Grade Group 2 or higher. Patients with an EPI score below this cut point have a very low risk (9%) of not having high grade prostate cancer.
Is the score a percentage of risk? Recent data presented at ASCO GU 2019 clearly demonstrated that the EPI score is proportional to increased risk of HGPCa. For example, an EPI score of 50 is associated with a 50% risk for HGPCa (see Figure 1). The risk should be considered within the context of other patient parameters. A score of 60 or higher is not demonstrated to have higher risk than a score of 50.
Why do I need to use your collection cup? The prostate biomarkers we are looking for have the highest concentration in the “First Catch” urine sample which is the fi rst 20 mLs of the void and is mostly from the prostate. Using the ExoDx collection cup that we provide allows us to capture this fi rst catch and discard additional urine that would dilute the sample.
What should I do if the patient voided 30 minutes ago? Please have the patient wait one full hour before providing a new sample. The EPI Test is most accurate when there is suffi cient signal in the urine sample, which occurs with the First Catch.
Which RNA biomarkers are analyzed? PCA3, ERG and SPDEF
The EPI Test came back at “Higher Risk” but a biopsy result came back negative. How should I interpret this result?
The purpose of the EPI test is to rule out patients who don’t need a biopsy. If you are below the 15.6 cut-point, the chance of fi nding HGPCa is illustrated in Figure 1.

Key Points:
• EPI was able to accurately classify patients that were not likely to need a biopsy (Gleason 6/ISUP1) with a score of 15.6 or less. Note the density of blue below the cut point (indicating ISUP1/benign)
• EPI was able to accurately classify patients that were more likely to need a biopsy (Gleason 7/GG2) with a score of 15.6. Note the high density of yellow and red color above the cut point, indicating Gleason 7 and above (indicating higher grade group and need for biopsy)

What is the Negative Predictive Value (NPV)? Negative Predictive Value is a statistical measure that says how confi dent we are about a negative outcome. In the case of The EPI Test, an NPV of 91% means we are 91% certain that the patient will not have HGPCa at a cut point of 15.6 or less.
What is the sensitivity of The EPI Test? The sensitivity of The EPI Test is 92%. The sensitivity measures the proportion of actual GS7 and above that are correctly identifi ed as positive
What is the cut-point used to determine high risk vs. lower risk? The EPI Test has been validated using a cut point of 15.6 to determine when patients are at lower risk for high grade prostate cancer, defi ned as Gleason 7(3+4) or Grade Group 2 or higher. Patients with an EPI score below this cut point have a very low risk (9%) of not having high grade prostate cancer.
Is the score a percentage of risk? Recent data presented at ASCO GU 2019 clearly demonstrated that the EPI score is proportional to increased risk of HGPCa. For example, an EPI score of 50 is associated with a 50% risk for HGPCa (see Figure 1). The risk should be considered within the context of other patient parameters. A score of 60 or higher is not demonstrated to have higher risk than a score of 50.
Why do I need to use your collection cup? The prostate biomarkers we are looking for have the highest concentration in the “First Catch” urine sample which is the fi rst 20 mLs of the void and is mostly from the prostate. Using the ExoDx collection cup that we provide allows us to capture this fi rst catch and discard additional urine that would dilute the sample.
What should I do if the patient voided 30 minutes ago? Please have the patient wait one full hour before providing a new sample. The EPI Test is most accurate when there is suffi cient signal in the urine sample, which occurs with the First Catch.
Which RNA biomarkers are analyzed? PCA3, ERG and SPDEF
The EPI Test came back at “Higher Risk” but a biopsy result came back negative. How should I interpret this result?
The purpose of the EPI test is to rule out patients who don’t need a biopsy. If you are below the 15.6 cut-point, the chance of fi nding HGPCa is illustrated in Figure 1.

Does The EPI Test distinguish between GS6 and GS7 and higher prostate cancer?
Yes. The EPI Test is optimized as a rule out test to distinguish high grade prostate cancer (defi ned as GS7 and above) from low grade prostate cancer. Patients above the cut-point of 15.6 are associated with high risk of high grade prostate cancer. Patients below the cut-point of 15.6 are associated with lower risk of high grade prostate cancer. Reference Figure 1 to see the likelihood of fi nding HGPCa in the intended use population.

The POWER behind The EPI Test for prostate cancerIntroducing the fi rst and only exosomal molecular test that relies on genomic information for risk assessment for HGPCa. This test was developed to assist physicians to reduce unnecessary biopsies* and can be used as a risk assessment tool to complement standard of care features in the biopsy decision making process.
The EPI Test allows for greater confi dence to identify high grade prostate cancer (GS7 and above) in patients.
Tested in >26,000 patients
Cut-point prospectively validated in 1,022 men
Test algorithm independent of PSA and SOC
Complementary tool to clinical information
Publications in top-tier peer-reviewed journals: JAMA Oncology & European Urology
Simple urine test that can be collected any time of the day
No DRE required prior to testing
It is well known that prostate cancer is the 2nd leading cause of cancer in men with >1 million new cases and 300,000 deaths.1
The Unmet Clinical Need in Prostate Cancer:Although Prostate Specifi c Antigen (PSA) screening is part of standard of care (SOC), its benefi ts have caused debate in recent years. The United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) changed its guidelines in 2018 advising men 55-69 years to make an informed choice and discuss with their doctor whether PSA screening is right for them, while recommending against screening for men over 70 years of age. This change in guidance came about after a review of published data of 1.9 million men on the use of PSA testing to screen for cancer based on the potential harms and benefi ts for PSA screening.
Limitations of PSA might include:• Low sensitivity and specifi city for prostate cancer• PSA levels can be increased by benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prostatic infl ammation or lower urinary tract infection• When PSA results are in the “gray zone”, other factors such as age, family history, ethnicity and digital rectal examination (DRE)
factor into the shared decision-making discussion regarding prostate biopsy• PSA cannot distinguish high grade from low grade cancer and is not prostate cancer specifi cImportantly the increased detection of Prostate Cancer has led to over-treatment including potentially unnecessary biopsies.
When there is uncertainty about proceeding with a biopsy, The EPI Test may be a solution. Clinical studies show The EPI Test can help avoid 27% of biopsies3 in patients with PSA levels in the gray zone (2-10 ng/mL). EPI results can be part of your best practices to send the right patient to the right intervention at the right time.
