News Release
bioAffinity
Technologies’ CyPath® Lung Test Unit Sales Surged 146% Year-Over-Year in Q1 2026
Noninvasive
diagnostic continues to gain traction in the current and expanding U.S. addressable market of $3.58 billion for pulmonary nodule management
and surveillance of lung cancer survivors
Flow
cytometry+AI technology has potential to improve lung cancer risk assessment and nodule management
SAN
ANTONIO, TX – April 1, 2026 – bioAffinity Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: BIAF; BIAFW), a biotechnology company focused
on noninvasive diagnostics and early cancer detection, today announced that unit sales for its CyPath® Lung diagnostic
in the first quarter of 2026 exceeded internal projections and, based on preliminary unaudited data, achieved 146% growth compared to
the first quarter of 2025, reflecting accelerating physician adoption and expanding clinical use of the Company’s noninvasive lung
cancer diagnostic test.
“The
stronger than expected unit growth in the first quarter of 2026 reflects growing recognition of the value that CyPath®
Lung brings to clinical decision-making and patient outcomes,” said Maria Zannes, President and CEO of bioAffinity Technologies.
“Physicians are seeking more accurate, noninvasive tools to assess lung cancer risk and detect disease at its earliest, most treatable
stage. CyPath® Lung is designed to address a critical gap in the diagnostic pathway by supporting lung cancer risk assessment,
pulmonary nodule management and post-treatment surveillance. Our growing body of evidence – including real-world case studies –
further supports CyPath® Lung’s potential clinical utility.”
Addressing
a Large and Growing Clinical Need
The
number of patients identified with indeterminate pulmonary nodules continues to rise, driven in part by increases in incidental findings
and screening by low-dose CT for high-risk patients. This expanding patient population poses a diagnostic challenge for physicians who
have to weigh the benefits and risks of “watchful waiting” versus invasive procedures like biopsy.
Consistent
with estimates from the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force, the number of indeterminate pulmonary nodules detected in the U.S. through
lung cancer screening and incidental imaging is projected to grow 62% from 2.9 million in 2025 to 4.7 million in 2030. The number of
people living with a prior lung cancer diagnosis is projected to increase from 680,000 to more than 871,000 by 2030. Capturing only 10%
of both markets represents sales of $358 million for CyPath® Lung, growing to more than $560 million over the next five
years. The forecast assumes 10% compound annual growth from 2024–2030, driven by increased lung cancer screening adoption, improved
adherence to screening guidelines, and enhanced detection through AI-enabled imaging tools.
CyPath®
Lung’s flow cytometry+AI technology is designed to provide actionable information to support clinical decision-making by delivering
a binary result – “likely” or “unlikely” malignancy – to the ordering physician. Real-world patient
cases have suggested the test’s potential to:
● Help
detect lung cancer at Stage 1A, when it is most treatable, as observed in real-world clinical
cases.
● Help
avoid unnecessary invasive, risky, and costly procedures when the test result is negative
(“unlikely” malignancy), based on clinical experience to date.
Executing
a Focused Commercial Strategy
bioAffinity
Technologies has prioritized CyPath® Lung as its core commercial focus, aligning resources to accelerate adoption and
scale. Growth has been driven by:
● Expansion
of ordering physician sites.
● Increased
peer-to-peer education among pulmonologists.
● Integration
of CyPath® Lung into clinical workflows for lung cancer risk assessment and
nodule management.
Based
on audited financial results, CyPath® Lung revenue increased 87% year over year in 2025, while test units sold grew 99%
compared to 2024. These milestones, together with preliminary unaudited growth data for Q1 2026, support the initial phase of the Company’s
commercialization strategy and position CyPath® Lung for continued growth.
Positioned
for Continued Expansion
The
Company is advancing multiple initiatives to further expand the clinical impact of its proprietary technology platform, including:
● A
large-scale longitudinal clinical study designed to generate additional validation data for
CyPath® Lung.
● Broader
use of CyPath® Lung to monitor lung cancer survivors after treatment.
● An
R&D pipeline that includes diagnostic tests for asthma and COPD that will help guide
personalized treatment with targeted therapies.
About
CyPath® Lung
CyPath®
Lung by bioAffinity Technologies is a noninvasive test designed to improve the early detection of lung cancer in patients at high risk
for the disease. CyPath® Lung uses advanced flow cytometry and proprietary artificial intelligence (AI) to identify cell
populations in patient sputum that indicate malignancy. CyPath® Lung incorporates a fluorescent porphyrin that is preferentially
taken up by cancer and cancer-related cells. CyPath® Lung demonstrated 92% sensitivity, 87% specificity and 88% accuracy
in detecting lung cancer in patients at high risk for the disease who had small indeterminate lung nodules less than 20 millimeters.
Results may vary in broader clinical use.
About
bioAffinity Technologies, Inc.
bioAffinity
Technologies, Inc. addresses the need for noninvasive diagnosis of early-stage cancer and other diseases of the lung and broad-spectrum
cancer treatments. The Company’s first product, CyPath® Lung, is a noninvasive test that has shown high sensitivity,
specificity and accuracy for the detection of early-stage lung cancer. CyPath® Lung is marketed as a Laboratory Developed
Test (LDT) by Precision Pathology Laboratory Services, a subsidiary of bioAffinity Technologies. LDTs are overseen under the Clinical
Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA), administered by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. For more information, visit
