2. Team of scientists and MBA studentsJames Lim, PhDScientistExperience: Seven years of cancer cell microscopyExpertise: Live-cell microscopy and cancer cell biology Dale NelsonJames BrianNelson Chan, PhDScientistExperience: Seven years of cancer researchExpertise: Biochemical and toxicological analysis mediating cancer cell deathBrian FethMBAExperience: Five years in life sciences business strategy consulting and private equityExpertise: Business model development and project managementDale FedunMBAExperience: Twelve years in creating and managing business IT programsExpertise: Business model and IT system development2 2 3. Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs): Initial Idea Circulating tumor cellsOncologists & PathologistsCancer cells that haveDoes my patient have anydetached from the CTCs?tumor and are How aggressive are they?circulating in the bloodstreamCapture and grow CTCs Video technology to characterize aggressiveness3 3 4.

Get out of the Building! Talked to customers andpartners to test our hypotheses Visited local hospitals andclinics Called nurses and patients toget perspectives Spoke with physician andpatient advocacy groups Hit the rolodex, plan interviewsfar in advance, daisy-chain tonew contacts55 6. Key people we spoke to: Dr. Leisha Emens Dr. John Siebel Dr. Ana Aguilar Dr. Scott North Dr. George Sledge Dr. Alan Venook Dr. Peter Eisenberg Dr. Cassandra Lee Dr. Balaram Puligandla Dr. Ken Pritzker (CEO) Dr. Doug Tkachuk (CMO) Dr. Scott Minick (CEO)66 7. Determining our customers OncologistPathologist Patient managementSample management Oncologists decide Pathologists perform in-what tests to order, house tests andwhen, and how oftenfacilitate contracts with service providers Primary customer Less important 7 7 8. Key messages from Oncologists:Dr. Siebel Culturing a patients CTCs to test efficacy of therapies would be valuable, if you could prove in vitro results are replicated in vivo.Dr. Sledge Dont give us more data. Tell us which drug to use for each patient.Dr. North Definitively knowing if a patient should get chemo would be a major breakthrough in oncology.88 9. What we learned from similar companies: RNA DiagnosticsThe space is crowded; there are many start-ups enumerating CTCsLifeLabs The clinical setting is difficult and can take years to get to market Bind BiosciencesCTC enumeration is not as useful and provides a limitedsample. Your approach is unique and overcomes keylimitations. 9 9 10. The value proposition epiphany: CanScan is a cell culture company!1010 11.

CanScan Technology: Background on CTCs Collection of cells that have the ability to metastasize away from the primary tumor Enumeration of CTCs was a better indicator of disease progression than traditional imaging techniques CTCs are potentially a valuable diagnostic and prognostic tool3939 40.

Improving CTC detection and characterizationInvade Current detection and characterization methods for CTCs fail to address the most intriguing aspect of their biology: Adhere CTCs are programmed to invade, adhere and Proliferate proliferate. 4141 42.

Health insurance reimbursement is necessaryprecondition for hospitals to use our service Private insurance or Medicare reimbursement requires:Evidence of Double-blinded, placebo controlled clinical trial with severalhundred participants will be needed Clinical Utility Must demonstrate the detection is accurate and repeatable Must demonstrate improved decision-making ability for physician linked to better patient outcomesAssignment of Codes are assigned by the AMA (CPT code) and CMS (HCPCScode) semi-annually with editorial panel approval (12-18 mo)a Billing Code CanScans likely coding: HCPCS Level II or CPT category III* Veridex CellSearch received code in Nov. 2011 for CTCs CanScan will likley need new code (non-immunologic)* Coding used for non-FDA approved service billed by suppliers other than physicians44 44 45. CMS requires that all laboratory testing on humanspecimens be CLIA certified CMS regulates all laboratory testing (except research) performed on humans in the U.S. through the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) CLIA certification requires accreditation from a CLIA-certified provider (e.g., CAP) CLIA covers approximately 5,500 independent labs (225,000 total labs) We will likely need to apply for CLIA certification for High Complexity tests * FDA regulates commercially marketed in vitro diagnostic tests under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA), not a requirement for CanScan* Immunicon received approval as a High Complexity lab in 11/2006 4545 46.
