STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN, - October 27, 2022 - SciBase Holding AB ("SciBase") [STO:SCIB], a leading developer of augmented intelligence-based solutions for skin disorders, announced today that a recently published article in the journal "Molecular Psychiatry", a part of Nature, named "Ectodermal origins of the skin-brain axis: a novel model for the developing brain, inflammation, and neurodevelopmental conditions"  discusses that EIS may represent an alternate clinical measure of skin barrier integrity that may function as a surrogate for neurodevelopmental divergence.

The article describes Electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) as a recently emerged promising alternative measurement of skin barrier function. EIS is a non-invasive indicator of epidermal integrity, rapidly measuring the skin's resistance to the flow of alternating imperceptible currents. Considering the likely differences in cell size and orientation between typical and abnormal skin, EIS has been suggested as a useful proxy for disease status. Currently, EIS has been observed to successfully differentiate between healthy, lesional and non-lesional skin in adults with AD, with these readings inversely correlating to TEWL.

In the article the authors hypothesize: "In this paper, we propose a novel hypothesis, that there is an antenatal link between skin and neurodevelopment, partially underpinned by the tissue's shared ectodermal origin with common molecular factors. Additionally, we evaluate postnatal mediators of this skin-brain co-vulnerability, considering the role of epidermal keratinocytes and the cutaneous microbiota in cortical development. Accordingly, we hypothesize that skin barrier integrity may represent an accessible and novel biomarker to aid in the early detection of neurodevelopmental divergence.  We further propose that skin barrier integrity may play a crucial role in mediating the relationship between environmental triggers of infection, immune processes, and neurodevelopment, with potential to reduce the impact of such environmental triggers by improving skin barrier integrity".

"This study shows the increasing interest in EIS and Nevisense and that it can become a very useful clinical measure in the management of different diseases when looking at skin barrier integrity. Previous studies have already shown that Nevisense can discriminate between patients with and without atopic dermatitis through non-lesional skin measurements and this has created the basis for the interest we see as EIS has the potential to track improvement after therapy. We believe that Nevisense and EIS have the potential to become a standard of care in this space and a very significant opportunity for SciBase", says Simon Grant, CEO of SciBase.

November 7, 2022 - SciBase Holding AB ("SciBase") [STO:SCIB], a leading developer of augmented intelligence-based solutions for skin disorders, announced today that it has signed an agreement with Johnson & Johnson Consumer Inc. to collaborate on the development of a unique AI-based screening tool to predict the development of a common type of eczema called atopic dermatitis in infants.

The goal of the collaboration is to develop and validate an AI-based solution that detects skin barrier dysfunction and may be able to predict an infant’s risk of developing atopic dermatitis. The method will be based on SciBase’s Electrical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) technology and specifically for the portable Nevisense Go device.

The collaboration will start immediately and will run for two years and includes supporting a study at several hospitals in Switzerland with Dr Caroline Roduit as Principal Investigator.  Dr Roduit commented:

‘’I work every day with the management of different allergic diseases in children, and it is a growing problem. Allergic diseases have a natural progression with atopic dermatitis being the first to manifest, often already in infancy, followed by other allergic diseases, such as food allergy and allergic asthma. The ability to identify these children early, will help to develop preventive strategies for allergic diseases, and Nevisense is an extremely promising method that has potential for early prediction of those children.”
 

Skin barrier assessment is a new application for SciBase’s EIS technology and this collaboration represents one of the three most promising new clinical indications.

“This project is a milestone for SciBase. It is our vision that Nevisense Go will become the standard of care for this indication. Twenty percent of children develop atopic dermatitis and the ability to predict which children are at high risk could significantly expand the development and use of prophylactic treatments.
The promise of the test is that it is non-invasive and can be used widely - in this study the test will be performed using Nevisense Go in the home of the infant. If successful, the combination of ease and unique predictive information of the test could translate into broad adoption and open a significant consumer market for SciBase. We see the collaboration as an important step in shaping a future where medical technology is accessible, non-invasive, and personalized.”,

STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN, - September 1, 2022 - SciBase Holding AB ("SciBase") [STO:SCIB], a leading developer of augmented intelligence-based solutions for skin disorders announced today scientific results that demonstrate the detrimental effects that common detergents can have on the health of the skin barrier. Top line results were presented recently at the World Immune Regulation Meeting (WIRM) in Davos, Switzerland. The study, which is not yet published, was performed by SIAF (CH), CK-CARE (CH), SciBase (SE) and the Sean N. Parker Allergy and Asthma research institute at Stanford (US). The study demonstrates that household laundry detergents disrupt the skin barrier integrity in mice.

The use of professional and household cleaning agents is associated with an increased risk of developing allergic disorders. In line with this, impairment of the epithelial barrier is also associated with the development of allergic disorders.

The aim of the study was to utilize Nevisense and Electrical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) to assess the effect of commercially available detergents on the skin barrier of mice. The top line results of the study indicated that:

  • Even at very low concentrations household detergents can impact the epidermis integrity, leading to an impaired skin barrier.
  • Prolonged exposure to detergent residue in clothes could progressively impair the barrier, leading to a higher risk of allergen sensitization.
  • Detergents could also aggravate already existing allergic disorders such as atopic dermatitis, increasing disease severity.
  • EIS is a fast and reliable tool for in vivo detection of barrier function with possible applications in dermatological and cosmetic studies.

"Since the 1960's we have seen a pandemic-scale increase in the prevalence of allergic diseases, affecting one billion individuals. This study highlights the risk that laundry detergents are contributing to this development, as further described in our "epithelial barrier hypothesis". We are very encouraged to see that EIS measurements could identify skin barrier impairment at such an early stage and at such low detergent concentrations. EIS provides an increasingly useful tool for such evaluations" said Professor Cezmi Akdis at SIAF (Swiss Institute of Asthma and Allergy Research).

"This is a fascinating study that shows the negative effect of common household detergents on the skin barrier, and though a mouse study, there are clearly implications for the general population. Skin barrier integrity is an important factor in many allergic diseases and EIS measurements of the skin barrier can provide unique and valuable insights in the prevention and management of these diseases. Studies have already shown that Nevisense can discriminate between patients with and without atopic dermatitis through non-lesional skin measurements and has the potential to track improvement after therapy. We believe that Nevisense and EIS have the potential to become a standard of care in this space and a very significant opportunity for SciBase.", says Simon Grant CEO SciBase.

STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN, - October 26, 2022 - SciBase Holding AB ("SciBase") [STO:SCIB], a leading developer of augmented intelligence-based solutions for skin disorders, announced today that a new clinical study has been published presenting the improvement that the Nevisense test provides over standard of care visual and dermoscopic evaluation. The article named "Electrical impedance spectroscopy significantly enhances correct biopsy choice for pigmented skin lesions beyond clinical evaluation and dermoscopy" has been published in the journal "Melanoma Research". The study included 231 US Dermatologists making a total of 33.957 biopsy decisions. The study participants showed a statistically significant improvement in correct biopsy decisions beyond their dermoscopic evaluation when integrating the Nevisense result. With Nevisense, Dermatologists identified more melanomas for biopsy; their sensitivity increasing from 85.2% to 91.1%.

The article is available through the following link: https://journals.lww.com/melanomaresearch/Abstract/9900/Electrical_impedance_spectroscopy_significantly.42.aspx

Prof Darrell Rigel, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York and author of the study commented: "The overall findings from this study demonstrate that the integration of EIS technology into PSL biopsy decisions has the potential to significantly improve the accuracy of lesion selection for biopsy beyond clinical and dermoscopic evaluation alone."

"This is a very important study and result for SciBase as it quantifies the improvement in clinical decision-making possible with Nevisense compared to visual methods that are today considered the standard of care. As expected, the study showed that dermoscopy improved decision making over naked eye assessment, but more importantly it showed that using Nevisense further improved clinician performance by at least as much again. Adding Nevisense clearly resulted in the best clinical management decisions.  This is one of several publications that shows that Nevisense has a significant role in the challenging process for clinicians to identify malignancies", says Simon Grant, CEO of SciBase.

STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN, - August 9, 2022 - SciBase Holding AB ("SciBase") [STO:SCIB], a leading developer of augmented intelligence-based solutions for skin disorders, announced today that the FDA (US Food and Drug Administration) held a meeting with the Medical Devices Advisory Committee on July 28th and 29th to gather expert advice on the regulation of AI driven, skin lesion analyzers (SLAs) and Apps for skin cancer detection.

Panel members urged caution for skin cancer detection SLAs and Apps and stressed the need for more high quality research to validate these technologies. "The standards would have to be set very high for new products, especially those intended for consumers," said FDA panelist Murad Alam, MD, a dermatologist from Northwestern University, Chicago, Illinois.

The panel also considered the FDA's proposal to change the classification status of Nevisense and any new products that assist dermatologists in melanoma detection from the most stringent regulatory category, class III, to the less restrictive class II. The Panel underscored the potential risks of reclassifying these technologies and strongly recommended keeping them in the class III category. SciBase shared the same opinion as panel experts through written submissions and oral presentations. SciBase believes the current process where FDA sets very high standards and is closely involved in clinical validation study design is the most appropriate.

"We very much agree with the Panel's recommendation. Nevisense is currently the only SLA available on the market and we have gone through the very rigorous Class III PMA (Pre Market Approval) process with it's extremely high safety demands. Reclassifying this type of product to Class II would reduce the level of FDA oversight for new products entering into this space; something we believe could potentially compromise patient safety.

While the FDA is not legally bound to follow the Panel's recommendation, we believe that such an overwhelming recommendation will be difficult for the FDA to ignore. A final decision from FDA could take months or years, though it is our belief that even in the medium term a decision would not practically affect Nevisense or the market itself as stringent requirements on clinical study data would still apply.", says Simon Grant CEO SciBase.
