ProLung announces corporate name change to IONIQ Sciences to reflect expanded early cancer detection strategy

Salt Lake City, UT, May 27, 2020 – IONIQ Sciences Inc. (“IONIQ Sciences” or the “Company”), which is changing the cancer landscape with a modern multi-cancer screening technology using its non-invasive Electrical Impedance Analytics (EIA) technology and a proprietary algorithm, announced it is changing its name from ProLung, Inc. to IONIQ Sciences, Inc. (dba). The new corporate name – IONIQ Sciences – reflects its mission to dramatically improve the cancer landscape with a modern solution for the early detection of multiple cancers thereby expanding the therapeutic window, significantly improving survivability, and reducing the cost of healthcare. 

IONIQ Sciences remains fully committed to gaining U.S. FDA regulatory clearance and subsequently commercializing the IONIQ ProLung Test™ for lung cancer. The ProLung Test, which was recently awarded Breakthrough Device Designation by the FDA, is the foundation upon which IONIQ Sciences will expand its platform technology into a modern multi-cancer screen for early detection. The external clinical validation results and internal discoveries suggest IONIQ’s technology is measuring the body’s early warning system to the presence and localities of cancer malignancies. To that end, IONIQ Sciences initiated an IRB-approved feasibility study on breast cancer at the beginning of 2020. 

IONIQ Sciences invites new and potential investors, family, friends and partners to visit its new website at www.IONIQsciences.com. The name change to IONIQ Sciences, Inc. is effective immediately.
