Organization And Description Of Business [Abstract] |
Organization and Description of Business | Note 1 – Organization and Description of Business Biodesix, Inc. (the “Company”, “Biodesix”, “we” “us” and “our”), formerly Elston Technologies, Inc., was incorporated in Delaware in 2005. The Company’s headquarters are in Colorado, with laboratories in Colorado and Kansas. The Company conducts all of its operations within a single legal entity. Biodesix is a data-driven diagnostic solutions company leveraging state of the art technologies with its proprietary artificial intelligence platform to discover, develop, and commercialize solutions for clinical unmet needs, with a primary focus in lung disease. In addition to diagnostic tests, the Company provides biopharmaceutical companies with services that include diagnostic research, clinical trial testing, and the discovery, development, and commercialization of companion diagnostics. The Company performs its blood-based diagnostic tests in its laboratory facilities, which are located in Boulder, Colorado and De Soto, Kansas. In May 2020, the Federal Drug Administration (FDA) granted Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) of the Bio-Rad SARS-CoV-2 Droplet Digital™ polymerase chain reaction (ddPCR) test to detect Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection. In April 2020, the FDA authorized the Platelia SARS-CoV-2 Total Ab test to detect COVID-19 antibodies. Medical products that are granted an EUA are only permitted to commercialize their products under the terms and conditions provided in the authorization. The FDA may revoke an EUA where it is determined that the underlying health emergency no longer exists or warrants such authorization, if the conditions for the issuance of the EUA are no longer met, or if other circumstances make revocation appropriate to protect the public health or safety. Blood-Based Lung Tests The Company offers five blood-based lung cancer tests across the lung cancer continuum of care: Diagnosis • Nodify XL2® and Nodify CDT® tests, together marketed as part of our Nodify Lung® Nodule Risk Assessment testing strategy, assess the risk of lung cancer to help identify the most appropriate treatment pathway. We believe we are the only company to offer two commercial blood-based tests to help physicians reclassify risk of malignancy in patients with suspicious lung nodules. Treatment & Monitoring • GeneStrat ddPCR® and VeriStrat® tests, marketed as part of our new IQLung™ testing strategy, are used following diagnosis of lung cancer to measure the presence of mutations in the tumor and the state of the patient’s immune system to establish the patient’s prognosis and help guide treatment decisions. The GeneStrat ddPCR tumor profiling test and the VeriStrat immune profiling test have a 36-hour average turnaround time, providing physicians with timely results to facilitate treatment decisions. • GeneStrat NGS™ (NGS) test, our 72-hour blood-based NGS test, was launched in November 2021 to a select group of physicians, with national launch in January 2022. The 52-gene panel includes guideline recommended mutations to help physicians treating advanced-stage lung cancer patients identify targeted therapy mutations, such as EGFR, ALK, KRAS, MET, NTRK, ERBB2, and others, and delivers them in an expedited timeframe so patient treatment can begin sooner. The GeneStrat NGS test is marketed as part of the new IQ Lung testing strategy with the GeneStrat ddPCR and VeriStrat tests. COVID-19 Tests We operate and have commercialized the Biodesix WorkSafe™ testing program, under which the Company offers three SARS-CoV-2 tests: • Bio-Rad SARS-CoV-2 ddPCR test, which is authorized by the FDA to be performed by Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) authorized laboratories that perform high complexity tests. The ddPCR test is designed to detect the presence of infection by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. • Platelia SARS-CoV-2 Total Ab test, which is an antibody test, authorized by the FDA, intended for detecting a B-cell immune response to SARS-CoV-2, indicating recent or prior infection. • cPass™ SARS-CoV-2 Neutralization Antibody test, which is the first blood-based surrogate neutralizing antibody test with FDA EUA and uses ELISA technology to qualitatively detect circulating neutralizing antibodies to the receptor binding domain (RBD) in the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 that are produced in response to vaccination or a previous SARS-CoV-2 infection. This test was commercially introduced during the second quarter 2021 in partnership with GenScript Biotech Corporation. These tests under the Biodesix WorkSafe testing program are utilized by healthcare providers, including hospitals and nursing homes, and are also offered to businesses and educational systems to assist in their back-to-work or back-to-school strategies, a crucial element of restarting economic activity. In developing the Company's products, the Company has built or gained access to unique biorepositories, proprietary technology, and bioinformatics methods that it believes are important to the development of new targeted therapies, determining clinical trial eligibility and guiding treatment selection. The Company’s testing services are made available through its clinical laboratories. Initial Public Offering On October 27, 2020, the Company completed its initial public offering (IPO), in which it issued and sold 4,000,000 shares of its common stock at a public offering price of $18.00 per share. The Company received net proceeds of $63.8 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by the Company. In addition, in connection with the IPO, all shares of the Company’s then-outstanding convertible preferred stock and convertible notes payable were automatically converted into 21,939,025 shares of common stock, and all then outstanding warrants to purchase the Company’s Series G convertible preferred stock were automatically converted into warrants to purchase 103,326 shares of the Company’s common stock.
