KidneyIntelX™ Clinical Decision Impact / Validation and Health Economic Data to be Presented at Upcoming Scientific Conferences
Four new data presentations, including late breaking clinical study data, underscores the value of KidneyIntelX testing in helping slow progression of chronic kidney disease in type 2 diabetes patients
LONDON and SALT LAKE CITY, June 15, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Renalytix plc (NASDAQ: RNLX) (LSE: RENX) today announced that three scientific abstracts have been accepted at the upcoming American Diabetes Association 83rd Scientific Sessions (June 23-26, 2023) in San Diego, California and another abstract has been accepted at the American Association of Nurse Practitioners National Conference (June 20-25, 2023) in New Orleans, Louisiana.
Accepted abstracts reflect the growing body of scientific evidence demonstrating the important role KidneyIntelX serves towards advancing patient care and awareness for early-stage diabetic kidney disease. The presentations at the American Diabetes Association 83rd Scientific Sessions meeting include late-breaking data from a multi-year real-world evidence study, extended validation of KidneyIntelX, and a cost-effectiveness analysis addressing economic benefit in the VA population. In addition to multiple data presentations, Renalytix will be hosting three medical education events covering real-world evidence data unveiled at the conference so that clinicians may discuss and engage with the Renalytix leadership team as well as their peers in nephrology, endocrinology, and primary care providers.
American Diabetes Association 83rd Scientific Sessions presentations will be displayed over three days June 24-26, 2023, and moderated at the specified times below. Presentations related to KidneyIntelX will also be published on the journal Diabetes® website.

KidneyIntelX is a blood test that assesses risk for rapid progressive decline in kidney function and is intended for use in adult patients with type 2 diabetes and early-stage CKD (stage 1-3). The KidneyIntelX risk score can assist clinicians, including primary care providers and endocrinologists, in guiding resource utilization, prescription of new therapeutic agents and improve efficiency of care among physicians.

About Kidney Disease
Kidney disease is a public health epidemic affecting over 850 million people globally.1 The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that 15% of U.S. adults, or over 37 million people2, have chronic kidney disease (CKD). Nearly 95% of people with CKD are in early stages 1-33. Despite its magnitude, early-stage (1-3) CKD is underdiagnosed and undertreated, largely because it's asymptomatic at this time in the disease. As many as 9 in 10 adults with CKD, and 2 in 5 adults with severe CKD do not know they have the condition.3
About Renalytix
Renalytix (NASDAQ: RNLX) (LSE: RENX) is an in-vitro diagnostics and laboratory services company that is the global founder and leader in the new field of bioprognosis™ for kidney health. The leadership team, with a combined 200+ years of healthcare and in-vitro diagnostic experience, has designed its KidneyIntelX laboratory developed test to enable risk assessment for rapid progressive decline in kidney function in adult patients with T2D and early CKD (stages 1-3). We believe that by understanding how disease will progress, patients and providers can take action early to improve outcomes and reduce overall health system costs. For more information, visit www.renalytix.com.
About KidneyIntelX™
KidneyIntelX™ is a laboratory developed test demonstrated to be a reliable, bioprognostic™ methodology that yields a simple-to-understand, custom risk score, enabling prediction of which adult patients with T2D and early CKD (stages 1-3) are at low, intermediate or high risk for rapid progressive decline in kidney function. By combining information from KidneyIntelX with newer cardio- and reno-protective therapies, doctors will have more information in determining which patients are at higher versus lower risk for rapid disease progression and may be able to more appropriately target resources and guideline-recommended treatments to advance kidney health. KidneyIntelX is supported by a growing body of clinical, utility and health economic studies (including a validation study of two large cohorts) and has a demonstrated a 72% improvement in predicting those patients who are at high risk for rapid progressive decline in kidney function versus the current standard of care (eGFR and UACR). KidneyIntelX has received Breakthrough Device Designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and Renalytix has submitted for De Novo marketing authorization. To learn more about KidneyIntelX and review the evidence, visit www.kidneyintelx.com.
KidneyIntelX, is a commercially available, New York State Department of Health approved predictive test that combines patient information and biomarker results. KidneyIntelX is based on technology developed by Mount Sinai faculty and licensed to Renalytix. Mount Sinai faculty and Mount Sinai have equity ownership in Renalytix.
