Regulatory News:

THERADIAG (ISIN code: FR0004197747, Ticker: ALTER, eligible for PEA-PME equity savings plans) (Paris:ALTER), a company specialized in in vitro diagnostics and theranostics, today announced that its US partner Miraca Life Sciences has changed its name to Inform Diagnostics.

Within the framework of the technology licensing agreement of June 2016, Inform Diagnostics markets Theradiag monitoring tests in the LISA TRACKER® range in the United States under the name InformTX^TM for monitoring inflammatory bowel disease treatments.

The InformTx^TM report is unique in that it provides clinicians with quantitative test results, historical test result data, and guidance from the most up-to-date peer-reviewed scientific literature. Testing measures the level of the specified drug as well as patient-derived antibodies to the specified drug. Inform Diagnostics uses laboratory-validated ELISA technology for InformTx^TM TDM, and testing results are reported within five days.

At present, eight tests are available as part of the InformTX^TM range: Inflectra® (Infliximab-dybb), Cimzia® (Certolizumab pegol), Stelara® (Ustekinumab), Simponi® (Golimumab), Remicade® (Infliximab), Humira® (Adalimumab), Entyvio® (Vedolizumab) and Renflexis® (Infliximab-abda).

As announced in October¹, the Renflexis® (Infliximab-abda) monitoring test is the latest kit to be offered by Inform Diagnostics in the United States. Following two months of tests, Theradiag confirms that the test is now available for routine use.
