bioAffinity Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: BIAF; BIAFW), a biotechnology company advancing noninvasive diagnostics and targeted therapeutics for cancer, today announced publication of “The Drive for Early Detection,” a case study detailing how bioAffinity Technologies utilizes support from Cardinal Health™ OptiFreight® Logistics to help meet demand for CyPath® Lung, a noninvasive test for detection of early stage lung cancer.
“Our innovative, accurate diagnostic for lung cancer relies on dependable, on-time delivery of viable sputum samples to our laboratory for processing and providing reliable results to patients and their physicians,” bioAffinity President and CEO Maria Zannes said. “CyPath® Lung has a strategic logistics partner in OptiFreight® Logistics who works with us to solve challenges, reduce costs, and continuously improve performance. They have the expertise and national reach to help ensure we meet the growing commercial demand for our test.”
bioAffinity uses information from Cardinal Health™ OptiFreight® Logistics TotalVue™ Insights, a cloud-based platform that provides shipment tracking, data analytics and reporting, to help address shipping challenges and identify opportunities to improve logistics.
“We are pleased to work with bioAffinity to help advance their mission in providing patients with access to early-stage lung cancer detection,” said Emily Gallo, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Cardinal Health™ OptiFreight® Logistics. “Our collaboration helps to ensure vital samples are delivered reliably and efficiently, enabling timely diagnoses that can make a real difference in the lives of patients.”
“With the growing demand for CyPath® Lung – including availability to veterans in rural areas through the Federal Supply Schedule and GSA Advantage – reliable, efficient shipping is more important than ever,” Zannes said. “OptiFreight® Logistics provides near real-time alerts on weather disruptions and processing delays, enabling the CyPath® Lung lab to adjust collection schedules and avoid delivery failures. Our partnership with OptiFreight® helps ensure the success of our national expansion.”
