The AspenBio Solution
Ÿ AspenBio is developing AppyScore, a blood-based
“Rule-Out” test for Acute Appendicitis in children and
adolescents
Ÿ Designed to help confirm that patients with abdominal
pain suspicious for appendicitis are at low to moderate
risk of the disease so they can be managed
appropriately
Ÿ Healthcare benefit: Fewer CTs = Reduced radiation
exposure
Ÿ Hospital benefit: Enhanced decision making, reduced
cost and increased workflow
Ÿ Pilot study underway: Solid regulatory plan based on
regulatory feedback
Ÿ Substantial global market potential
Ÿ Significant first mover advantage

…and Why Appendicitis?
Ÿ 3.1M CT Scans annually for abdominal
pain alone2
Ÿ 326K appendectomies in U.S. in 20072
Ÿ Children & adolescents represent peak
age group3
Ÿ Appendicitis affects 9% men, 7%
women over lifetime3

Use of ER Abdominal CT Imaging is Rising Rapidly
• Use of advanced medical
imaging 1 for non-traumatic
abdominal pain is increasing
• However, “liberal use of CT
scans in diagnosing
appendicitis in children has
not resulted in a decreased
negative appendectomy
rate”² (i.e., CT scans did not
decrease the removal of non-
diseased appendixes)

Ÿ Children are highly vulnerable to the oncogenic, long
term effects of exposure to high doses of ionizing
radiation (i.e., from CT)
Ÿ Up to 2% of all U.S. cancers will be caused by CT1
Ÿ Earlier the exposure, the more likely to die from
cancer later in life (see chart below)

per Million Patients Exposed to 10mCy
Age at Exposure (yr)
“Our finding of a substantial increase in the use of CT in children
who visit emergency departments in the United States
underscores the need for special attention to this vulnerable
population to ensure that imaging is appropriately ordered,
performed, and interpreted.” 2
CT Use in Children Increases Lifetime Cancer Risk

Further analysis of the 2011 pilot study found that of the 50 low/mod risk subjects who had a
CT, 14 (28%) would have tested negative by our multi-marker diagnostic and hence, could
have been more conservatively managed and possibly been spared a CT scan.*

CT Usage Not Correlated With Appendicitis Risk
*Risk groups in the 2010 clinical study were based on a modified Alvarado scoring system (9 of the 10 Alvarado items) while the
risk groups in the 2011 pilot study were based on a new scoring systems (4 of the 10 Alvarado items).

AppyScore Intended Use & Value Proposition
AppyScore is intended to be used as an aid to rule out appendicitis in pediatric
and adolescent patients presenting with signs, symptoms and medical history
placing them at low to moderate risk of having the disease.
Fits emergency room & laboratory workflow
Ÿ Blood-based rule-out test
Ÿ Rapid Processing Time and
throughput
Ÿ Data accessible to hospital via
LIS system
Ÿ Easy to deploy & use in any
hospital setting

evaluate the performance of
patented MRP 8/14 biomarker
and AspenBio’s Candidate
Multi-Marker Panel
Ÿ Interim analysis pilot study
results indicate use of multiple
biomarkers as diagnostic test
format provided improved
outcomes
Ÿ MRP 8/14 biomarker provided
outcomes generally consistent
with results noted in prior trials
Interim Data from 2011 Pilot Study (197 Patients)
MRP 8/14 vs. Candidate Multi-Marker Panel
Ÿ Preliminary results are encouraging, but are not conclusive
Ÿ Additional development work, analysis and completion of the
full 500-patient study is necessary prior to commencement of a
pivotal trial
Ÿ *All three improvements using the multi-marker test are
collectively important
