These initiatives are aimed at extending the outlook for the Company’s financing until 2025“.

iBiopsy®: onboarding of the academic clinical sites involved in the pivotal validation plan in progress for iBiopsy® LCS CADe/CADx Software as Medical Device

In February 2023, the Company announced the completion of the preliminary submission phase with the FDA (Q-submission). This phase seeks to clarify and implement the FDA’s expectations on key topics including pivotal study protocols for the iBiopsy® Lung Cancer Screening (LCS) CADe/CADx Software as Medical Device. These protocols have now been defined and will be used for the pivotal validation plan made of a standalone performance study and a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) clinical trial.

During the first half year of 2023, the Company finalized contracts with US- and EU-based academic clinical sites involved in the pivotal validation plan for the iBiopsy® LCS CAe/CADx Software as Medical Device.

²The order backlog is the sum of orders received but not yet fulfilled. An increase or decrease in the order backlog corresponds to the order intake of the reporting period, net of invoiced services, completed or cancelled contracts, and currency impact for projects in foreign currency (re-evaluated at the exchange rate on closing date). Orders are booked once the customer confirms, in writing, its retention of the Company’s services for a given project. The contract is usually signed a few months after written confirmation.
