BIOMARK DIAGNOSTICS ENDORSES GLOBAL CALL FOR EQUITABLE ACCESS TO EARLY SCREENING ON 2026 WORLD LUNG CANCER DAY

Biomark Diagnostics Inc. has aligned with leading international health care organizations demanding equal access to early detection by developing simple, accessible blood testing that empowers patients and physicians with critical diagnostic insights when it matters most.

According to the World Health Organization, lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer-related mortality globally, accounting for roughly 2.5 million new diagnoses and 1.8 million deaths annually. While low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) has proven effective for high-risk individuals, significant structural, financial and geographical barriers continue to prevent widespread adoption, leaving far too many patients diagnosed at late stages when treatment options are limited. Empowering individuals to understand their personal risk profile, navigate modern screening technologies and take proactive control of their health is essential to changing the trajectory of this disease.

Aligned with the core goals of the 2026 World Lung Cancer Day calls emphasizing that early detection can save lives only when screening is genuinely accessible, Biomark is developing a scalable liquid biopsy platform designed to eliminate care disparities. Powered by advanced metabolomics and machine learning algorithms, Biomark's diagnostic technology empowers health care systems worldwide to identify high-risk individuals earlier, including those exposed to environmental risk factors such as radon and air pollution, and streamline patient pathways before late-stage symptoms develop.

The platform served as a core component in the provincial lung cancer screening demonstration program in Quebec as well as in the HANSE study, a pilot program to provide evidence that a holistic and effective lung cancer screening program can be implemented in Germany. These two multicentre studies provide robust evidence demonstrating that metabolomics profiling combined with machine learning algorithms can reliably refine patient risk assessment to help overcome traditional access barriers in lung cancer screening.

"World Lung Cancer Day is a stark reminder that lung cancer continues to take far too many lives, yet many cases remain potentially treatable when identified at an earlier stage," said Rashid A. Bux, chief executive officer of Biomark Diagnostics. "The international consensus is clear. Progress requires collaboration among researchers, clinicians, patient advocacy organizations, governments and industry. Biomark is proud to contribute to that effort through the development of metabolomics-based technologies designed to complement existing clinical pathways and help identify individuals who may benefit from further evaluation."

The company's technology is being developed to complement existing screening and diagnostic pathways by providing physicians with additional biological information that may assist in identifying individuals who could benefit from further clinical assessment. Biomark continues to work with global health care organizations committed to improving lung health through prevention, education and earlier intervention. World Lung Cancer Day provides an opportunity to recognize the courage of patients and families affected by lung cancer while celebrating the researchers, clinicians, and organizations working tirelessly to reduce the global burden of this disease.
