SALT LAKE CITY, Aug. 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Myriad Genetics, Inc., (NASDAQ: MYGN), a leader in genetic testing and precision medicine, today announced it completed the sale of its EndoPredict® business to Eurobio Scientific, a leading French group in in vitro medical diagnostics and life sciences. As part of the sale, Myriad also licensed Eurobio the right to sell Prolaris® in vitro diagnostic kits outside of the U.S.
In May 2024, Myriad announced the reorganization of its International operations to better align company resources to its domestic opportunities while continuing to serve key biopharma partners and patients globally. This transaction builds on Myriad's earlier efforts this year to accelerate profitable business growth across its portfolio. Myriad has the licensed rights to continue to produce and sell EndoPredict in the U.S. as part of Precise™ Oncology Solutions, its comprehensive suite of precision medicine tools for breast, prostate, ovarian, pancreatic, endometrial, and colon cancer.
“The reorganization of Myriad’s International operations will enable us to continue growing our oncology and biopharma business in Europe and Asia, including Japan, through a more efficient commercial distribution model that reduces organizational complexity and enterprise risk,” said Paul J. Diaz, President and CEO, Myriad Genetics.
