Aditxt’s Subsidiary Pearsanta Receives an Invitation to Submit Full Proposal for the U.S. Department of Defense Pilot Award for the Development of its Mitomic® Ovarian Test
Pearsanta’s Mitomic® technology is a platform that is designed to use mitochondrial DNA to identify biomarkers and to develop tests for early detection of cancer and other diseases. Pearsanta is currently conducting clinical validation of the first two tests that have been developed based on this technology for early detection of prostate cancer and endometriosis. MOT™ will potentially be another blood-based test to be added to the Company’s product pipeline designed for earlier detection of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer currently has a poor prognosis due to the fact that it is typically detected in later stages. Early detection of ovarian cancer can potentially improve the outcomes for women who face this terrible disease. Pearsanta submitted a pre-proposal on June 10, 2025, which was favorably reviewed for its scientific merit, level of innovation, alignment with OCRP Areas of Interest, and potential impact. The full proposal, titled “Mitochondrial DNA Deletions in Plasma as a Diagnostic Aid for Ovarian Cancer,” is currently under development and will be submitted by the September 11, 2025, deadline.
The OCRP Pilot Award offers up to
“Early detection is one of the greatest unmet needs in ovarian cancer care,” said Chris Mitton, President of Pearsanta. “Our Mitomic® Ovarian Test has the potential to enable timely, more effective interventions, improve survival rates, and ultimately save lives. If successful, it could change the standard of care by offering a simple blood test that detects ovarian cancer at an earlier, more treatable stage—potentially improving survival and quality of life for women.”
The study aims to further develop and validate the MOT™ at Pearsanta’s
“Pearsanta’s continued progress is a powerful validation of our mission to accelerate promising health innovations with real-world impact,” said Amro Albanna, CEO of Aditxt. “We believe the Mitomic® platform has the potential to transform how diseases are detected and managed. Supporting the development of the MOT™ reflects our broader strategy to Acquire high-potential innovations, Build them into clinically and commercially viable solutions, and Capitalize their value to drive scalable deployment globally.
