    The Need for Better HCC Surveillance Screening

    Urine EVs as a Convenient Source of Biomarkers: Potential and Challenges

    Liver Disease Pilot Study Design

    The Std of Care for HCC Surveillance, Ultrasound + AFP is inadequate due to low Sensitivity, a lack of widespread availability/expertise, and inconvenience. What is needed is a convenient screen for early HCC.

    Ymir Genomics and OHSU haveperformed a pilot discovery studyfor urine EV-associated proteinand miRNA liver diseasebiomarkers.

    Several interesting candidatebiomarkers have been identified.Furthermore, the study hasperfected methods for sampleprocurement, sample preparationof EV-associated biomolecules,and high-throughput biomoleculeidentification with MS and miRNAarray. Follow-up larger scalestudies are now being planned

    HCC is a Growing Problem Ymatrix Overcomes the Challenges of Urine for EV Isolation with a Rapid, Low-cost Protocol

    Immunoblot and Mass Spectrometry data

    miRNA Array Data (Abcam Array)

    Proof-of-Concept: Known and Novel Liver-selective or Liver Disease Biomarkers in

    Patient Urinary Ymatrix EV Preps

    Two Early Candidate miRNA HCC Biomarkers have been

    identified
