CGIX Cancer Genetics Inc

Cancer Genetics, Inc. (Nasdaq:CGIX) ("CGI" or the "Company"), an emerging leader in DNA-based diagnostics, initiated two additional multi-year clinical trial contracts with biopharmaceutical customers. The Company estimates that the new contracts increase its total SelectOneTM pipeline to over $13 million in revenue over the next two years.

CGI's SelectOne program provides biotech and pharmaceutical companies with access to a range of genomic and biomarker-based testing technologies that improve the design and management of oncology clinical trials.

"Our SelectOne program is one of the key elements of our growth strategy, and these new contracts further validate our ability to develop compelling programs for our biopharma partners," said Panna Sharma, President and CEO of CGI. "With cancer drug approvals at only 13%, as measured from Phase 1 to FDA approval, there is a substantial need for improvement in patient selection and stratification among biotechs and pharma companies. Using our clinically-robust, CLIA-approved tests, our SelectOne customers benefit from more accurate understanding of biomarker-driven endpoints while refining the selection of specific patient groups. By understanding the genomic makeup of patient populations and how and why they respond to certain therapeutic agents there is an opportunity to drive the potential acceleration of clinical trials and to improve success rates and outcomes for patients, ultimately driving rapid growth in our SelectOne business."

CGI continues to build upon its existing relationships with leading global biotech and pharmaceutical clients to expand SelectOne, which was formally launched in early 2012. As demand for these clinical trial services continues to increase, CGI will expand its organization and invest in additional technology infrastructure to accommodate the growing test volumes.

About SelectOne™

The SelectOne™ clinical trial offering was specifically created by CGI to service biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies with their oncology-focused clinical trial programs, biomarker discovery and companion diagnostic development. This service leverages our knowledge of clinical oncology and molecular diagnostics and our laboratory's fully integrated capabilities. We develop customizable tests and techniques utilizing our proprietary microarrays and laboratory services to provide enhanced genetic signature and more comprehensive understanding of complex diseases at earlier stages. Our genomic database and assay development capabilities are used in the development and validation of companion diagnostics.

Select One™ clinical services are designed to allow our customers to improve patient responder selection, thereby potentially increasing the likelihood a product being approved by the FDA. These services may also reduce the costs associated with drug development by determining earlier in the development process if a company should proceed with additional clinical studies.
