Agendia to Present New Data Demonstrating the Expanded Clinical Utility of MammaPrint ® and BluePrint ® at the 2026 ESMO Breast Cancer Annual Congress
30.4.2026 14:00:00 EEST | Business Wire | Press release
Agendia®, Inc., a leader in precision oncology for breast cancer, today announced it will present new data at the 2026 European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Annual Congress on Breast Cancer, taking place May 6-8 in Berlin, Germany. The company will present two posters featuring data from the prospective FLEX Study and an independent post hoc analysis of the landmark MINDACT trial that underscore the prognostic value of MammaPrint® + BluePrint® in early-stage breast cancer (EBC).
Poster #65P | Thursday, May 7, 13:15 – 14:15 p.m. CEST | Presenter: Elena Shagisultanova
Prognostic Performance of MammaPrint in Patients with Small T1a, b, and c Node-Negative Early Breast Cancer
A retrospective analysis from the FLEX Study involving 4,349 patients highlights the biological heterogeneity within small, node-negative (T1a, b, and c) tumors – a group that typically has favorable outcomes.
- MammaPrint (MP) identified a High Risk 2 (H2) subset, representing 10% of all patients and 5% of those with HR+HER2- disease who experienced significantly worse recurrence-free survival (RFS) compared to those with High-Risk 1 (H1) or Low/UltraLow Risk (LR/UL) tumors.
- Among all patients, the 3-year RFS was 93% for MP H2 versus 98% for the LR/UL group, while in the HR+HER2- subgroup, MP H2 tumors had a 3-year RFS of 91% compared to 98% for the LR/UL group.
- These findings highlight the prognostic value of MP in clinically small EBC, suggesting that a subset of T1N0 patients may benefit from escalated therapy or biology-informed treatment approaches.
“These findings highlight the prognostic value of MammaPrint in small, node-negative breast cancers," said William Audeh, MD, Chief Medical Officer of Agendia. “While this group of patients are generally regarded as having a favorable prognosis, our data reveal a distinct subset with high-risk biology who may benefit from escalated therapy and biology-informed treatment approaches that might have otherwise been overlooked based on tumor size alone."

Associations of body mass index with distant recurrence dynamics in the MINDACT trial
This exploratory analysis from the MINDACT trial, co-authored by Agendia co-founder and MammaPrint inventor Laura van 't Veer, PhD, analyzed the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and distant metastasis risk (DMR) dynamics in ER+/HER2- breast cancer.
- Higher BMI was not linearly associated with worse outcomes in this cohort; patients with obesity showed a lower DMR (HR 0.36) compared to those with normal weight.
- For patients with a BMI between 24–28, DMR dynamics showed a peak at 6 years, followed by a rapid decline.
- The non-monotonic relationship between DMR and BMI warrants further investigation in large trials to optimize time-dependent management strategies.
About Agendia
Agendia is a global leader in precision oncology focused on early-stage breast cancer. The company’s genomic assays, MammaPrint + BluePrint, deliver essential biological insights to inform personalized treatment decisions for patients and their care teams. With operations in Amsterdam and Irvine, Agendia partners with academic and community oncology centers worldwide to generate real-world evidence through the landmark FLEX Study (NCT03053193), the largest whole-transcriptome registry of early-stage breast cancer.
About MammaPrint
MammaPrint is the only FDA-cleared gene expression profiling test that assesses a woman’s risk of distant metastasis in early-stage breast cancer. By analyzing 70 key genes in a tumor, it stratifies risk into four categories — UltraLow Risk, Low Risk, High Risk 1, and High Risk 2 — to help guide treatment planning, including chemotherapy benefits and de-escalation decisions.
About BluePrint
BluePrint is an 80-gene molecular subtyping assay that reveals the functional biology driving tumor growth, classifying tumors as Luminal-type, HER2-type, or Basal-type. By defining intrinsic subtypes beyond traditional immunohistochemistry, BluePrint provides critical insights to optimize treatment selection and improve outcomes.

Experian Announces Agent Trust to Power Trusted AI Driven Commerce30.4.2026 16:00:00 EEST | Press release
Experian today announced Experian Agent Trust™, a first-of-its-kind framework that establishes a secure, verifiable link between consumers and AI agents, bringing identity, and accountability to AI-driven transactions. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260430719198/en/ Experian Announces Agent Trust to Power Trusted AI Driven Commerce. As AI agents begin to search and transact autonomously, they introduce a fundamental challenge for businesses: how to trust an action when it is no longer driven by a human. Without a verified connection between humans and AI agents, autonomous commerce introduces new risks in fraud, misrepresentation, and unauthorized transactions. Experian Agent Trust addresses this challenge through a new “Know Your Agent” (KYA) framework, extending identity verification into the age of AI. The framework ensures that agent-initiated transactions are grounded in verified consumer identity. “Agen
