Bionano Genomics, stock symbol BNGO, announced three new studies that support the use of Optical Genome Mapping (OGM) in cell and gene therapy development. These studies demonstrate OGM's ability to detect genome integrity and structural variations in therapeutic cell lines like CAR-T cells, stem cells, and hiPSCs. The first study from Niño Jesús University Children's Hospital showed OGM's efficacy in assessing genotoxicity in CAR-T cells. The second study from Ruhr-University Bochum demonstrated OGM's utility in evaluating genome integrity post-CRISPR/Cas9 editing for Alzheimer's research. The third study from Janssen explored OGM's role in confirming the absence of off-target effects in stem cells edited for the APOE genotype, associated with Alzheimer's disease.
Bionano Genomics, Inc. (Nasdaq: BNGO) announced significant upgrades to its suite of computational tools for comprehensive cancer analysis. The enhancements to the VIA™ software solution improve the detection and interpretation of aneusomies, small structural variants, and copy number variants. The upgrades also include dynamic visualization tools for better representation of findings, automated analysis, and interpretation of variants, and standardized Phred scale calculation for SV confidence scores.
Bionano Genomics, Inc. (BNGO) reported Q1 2024 revenue of $8.8 million, an 18% increase over Q1 2023.
