Top-Five National Payer Issues Positive Coverage Decision for Myriad’s Prolaris® Test for Prostate Cancer

Decision Follows Recently Updated Medical Guidelines for Prostate Cancer

SALT LAKE CITY, June 21, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Myriad Genetics, Inc. (NASDAQ:MYGN), a leader in molecular diagnostics and personalized medicine, today announced that it has received a positive medical policy decision for its Prolaris® prostate cancer test from one of the nation’s top-five insurance companies.  This positive coverage decision follows the recently updated National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) medical guidelines for prostate cancer, which support Prolaris as a standard-of-care genetic test for men diagnosed with low and favorable-intermediate risk prostate cancer.

“This new positive coverage decision from a leading commercial insurer is another major milestone in expanding access to Prolaris for men with prostate cancer,” said Nicole Lambert, general manager of Urology, Myriad Genetics.  “We estimate that more than 55 percent of patients eligible for Prolaris testing are now covered, and our team is working with the remaining private health insurers to ensure that their members have broad access to Prolaris.”

Since being included in NCCN guidelines, coverage has increased significantly.  In May, the company announced that Prolaris received seven positive commercial coverage decisions, representing roughly six million covered lives.

Prolaris is the market-leading genetic test for prostate cancer to help guide treatment decisions for patients.  For more information about Prolaris visit: www.prolaris.com.

About Prolaris® 
Prolaris is a novel 46-gene RNA-expression test that directly measures tumor cell growth characteristics for stratifying the risk of disease-specific mortality in patients with prostate cancer. Prolaris provides a quantitative measure of the RNA expression levels of genes involved in the progression of tumor growth.  Low gene expression is associated with a low risk of disease-specific mortality in men who may be candidates for active surveillance and high gene expression is associated with a higher risk of disease-specific mortality in patients who may benefit from additional therapy. 

About Myriad Genetics
Myriad Genetics Inc., is a leading personalized medicine company dedicated to being a trusted advisor transforming patient lives worldwide with pioneering molecular diagnostics.  Myriad discovers and commercializes molecular diagnostic tests that: determine the risk of developing disease, accurately diagnose disease, assess the risk of disease progression, and guide treatment decisions across six major medical specialties where molecular diagnostics can significantly improve patient care and lower healthcare costs.  Myriad is focused on five strategic imperatives:  build upon a solid hereditary cancer foundation, growing new product volume, expanding reimbursement coverage for new products, increasing RNA kit revenue internationally and improving profitability with Elevate 2020.  For more information on how Myriad is making a difference, please visit the Company's website: www.myriad.com.
