Mainz Biomed Provides First Quarter 2025 Corporate Update and Path to FDA Premarket Approval

BERKELEY, US – MAINZ, Germany – April 28, 2025 — Mainz Biomed N.V. (NASDAQ: MYNZ) (“Mainz Biomed” or the “Company”), a molecular genetics diagnostic company specializing in the early detection of cancer, today reviewed its major accomplishments of the first quarter of 2025, and provided an outlook on its path to FDA premarket approval. 

During the first quarter of 2025:

• Path to FDA premarket approval: The Company enrolled the first patient into its feasibility study eAArly DETECT 2, which evaluates the Mainz Biomed’s next-generation colorectal cancer (CRC) test, integrating a portfolio of proprietary mRNA biomarkers, an AI-developed algorithm, and a FIT test. The study is expected to include a population of approximately 2,000 average-risk patients to validate the industry-leading results of previous feasibility studies and support the transition of CRC screening to prevention. The inclusion of the first patient keeps the Company on schedule to report top-line results by the end of 2025. 
• Mainz Biomed signed a license and option agreement with Liquid Biosciences to access novel mRNA biomarkers for early detection of pancreatic cancer via blood test. Independent validation of the algorithm-biomarker combination showed 95% sensitivity and 98% specificity.
• The Company entered into a strategic partnership with labor team w ag, a renowned diagnostic laboratory based in Goldach, Switzerland. This collaboration introduces ColoAlert®, a DNA-based CRC screening test to the Swiss market for the very first time, marking Mainz Biomed’s initial footprint in Switzerland. In Switzerland, thousands of new cases are diagnosed annually, underscoring the urgent need for early detection and prevention. The introduction of a DNA-based CRC screening test offers a transformative opportunity to increase participation rates and ensure early detection, aligning with national efforts to reduce CRC-related mortality and improve population health outcomes.
• Mainz Biomed announced that GANZIMMUN Diagnostics has officially launched the enhanced ColoAlert CRC screening test. Since January 2025, patients across Germany can access this new version of the Company’s screening test. The announcement was made in conjunction with Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month in March.
• On January 23, 2025, the Company received formal notice from Nasdaq confirming that it had regained compliance with the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market set forth in Listing Rule 5550(b)(1). Mainz Biomed had previously received confirmation that it had regained compliance with the minimum bid price requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). Mainz Biomed is now in full compliance with all Nasdaq continued listing requirements.

“I’m extremely pleased with the progress achieved during the first quarter of 2025 as we execute our strategy driven by our excellent clinical results in three studies published during 2024,” commented Guido Baechler, Chief Executive Officer of Mainz Biomed. “Our eAArly DETECT 2 study, scheduled to report results by the end of 2025, is essential to move rapidly to the beginning of enrollment for our pivotal U.S. FDA study ReconAAsense shortly thereafter.”
