About the RedoxSYS Diagnostic System: The RedoxSYS Diagnostic System is a first-in-class clinical diagnostic platform that measures oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) in the body, a homeostatic measurement of oxidative stress that changes in response to injury or illness. The result of nearly two decades of clinical, scientific and technical R&D, the RedoxSYS System is able to provide the only complete assessment of a patient's oxidative status, which has broad diagnostic application across multiple disease areas where oxidative stress is implicated. Luoxis is currently developing RedoxSYS as a simple, rapid blood test for use in the critical care setting, where its ability to provide an objective measurement of patient illness and predict potential complications may enable physicians to improve resource allocation and align higher levels of care with the most critically injured and ill patients, leading to improved outcomes and optimal workflows.

About Luoxis Diagnostics: Luoxis Diagnostics is an in vitro diagnostics company focused on developing and commercializing its proprietary, CE Marked RedoxSYS Diagnostic System. The company is currently developing RedoxSYS to address the $4+ billion critical care market, where it has the potential to provide hospitals with a single, rapid solution with unmatched diagnostic/prognostic value for conditions with significant medical need, and for which few diagnostic biomarkers exist. Luoxis is conducting initial market development for RedoxSYS in select European territories in order to validate and quantify the clinical value of RedoxSYS for monitoring injury severity and patient oxidative stress following traumatic brain injury, multi-trauma injury, and other critical illnesses. Luoxis is also pursuing U.S. regulatory clearance for RedoxSYS, based on completed and ongoing clinical studies in multiple critical care conditions in the United States, including TBI, multi-trauma injury, stroke, sepsis, and other life-threatening conditions. Luoxis has research collaborations in place with leading centers around the world. Luoxis is a majority-owned subsidiary of Ampio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. For more information, visit www.luoxis.com.
