IRVINE, Calif. - Rezul -- VESICA HEALTH^®, INC., a precision diagnostics company improving the early detection and management of bladder cancer, today announced that the American Medical Association (AMA) has granted a Proprietary Laboratory Analysis (PLA) billing code for its AssureMDx™ test. The new code, effective January 2026, represents a critical de-risking milestone in Vesica Health's path to commercialization, establishing a recognized billing pathway that will enable reimbursement and support adoption of AssureMDx across the U.S. healthcare system.

About AssureMDx^™
AssureMDx is a proprietary, noninvasive urine-based DNA test clinically validated to improve the early detection of bladder cancer. The assay integrates six genomic and epigenetic biomarkers—DNA methylation of TWIST1, OTX1, and ONECUT2, and somatic mutations in FGFR3, HRAS, and TERT—to stratify hematuria patients for expedited urologic evaluation while safely ruling out those at very low risk.

Vesica Health's genes and technology have been reported in more than 26 peer-reviewed publications involving over 8,500 patients across detection, prognostic, and predictive applications. This body of evidence includes three prospective clinical validation studies evaluating the final six-gene configuration of the AssureMDx assay for early detection. In the largest multicenter study (n=838; van Kessel et al., Journal of Urology, 2020), AssureMDx demonstrated an overall sensitivity of 96%, a negative predictive value greater than 99%, and an AUC of 0.96 for bladder cancer detection. Answering the clinical community's call for earlier, more accurate detection, AssureMDx achieved a combined sensitivity of 95.9% for Stage 0 (Ta and Tis/CIS) and Stage I disease—underpinning its unique ability to identify patients at increased risk for bladder cancer at its earliest and most treatable stages.

AssureMDx has been recognized in the AUA Clinical Guidelines as a validated urine-based genomic test for the evaluation of patients with intermediate-risk microscopic hematuria, further reinforcing its clinical utility within the standard of care.
