StageZero Life Sciences Ltd.
 

TORONTO, ON  - TheNewswire - May 13, 2025 - StageZero Life Sciences, Ltd. (TSX:SZLS)(OTCQB:SZLSF) ("StageZero" or the "Company"), and ElevationMD (“ElevationMD”) today announced the introduction of Aristotle and AVRT for the early detection of cancer as well as screening for metabolic markers for identifying and managing the early warning signs of chronic disease for the prevention of cancer.

StageZero is an integrated healthcare company with the first and only mRNA gene expression multi-cancer diagnostic for screening for multiple, key cancers from a single sample of blood - Aristotle, and AVRT, an oncologist-led  metabolic screening and treatment protocol for detecting the early warning signs of cancer and chronic disease, together with ElevationMD today announced they are introducing state of the art early cancer screening to ElevationMD’s patients in British Columbia.

ElevationMD is a physician-led innovative medical clinic.  ElevationMD’s goal is to combine, organize and implement innovative health solutions to deliver exceptional private patient care enabling the detection and prevention of possible future health issues like cancer.

With access to a patient base of 14,000+ this partnership represents a significant opportunity to expand in BC.  ElevationMD belongs to a private network of 22 doctors and is actively growing their doctor roster and patient base.

“ElevationMD is excited to offer both Aristotle and AVRT to its patient base as we continue to build out our innovative health offerings, particularly with the focus on cancer” said Scott Monette, CEO of ElevationMD.

“We are very pleased to partner with ElevationMD and offer Aristotle as part of their comprehensive proactive approach to healthcare.  Specialized tests such as Aristotle are best used inside a clinical offering where the necessary follow up can be easily arranged.  ElevationMD offers exactly this service.” Said James Howard-Tripp, Chairman and CEO of StageZero Life Sciences. “The earlier we can find cancer, or identify the risk factors that predispose to cancer, the earlier we can clinically intervene and the greater the opportunity for a successful outcome. For example, ColoRectal cancer found early stage has an approximately 90% 5-year survival rate vs approximately 14% if found late; however, more than half of ColoRectal cancer is detected as late stage cancer. We very much look forward to working with ElevationMD as they bring these innovations to their patients.”
