$SLDX Stella Diagnostics and Mayo Clinic to Present Data on the Utility of the STLA101 Test for Esophageal Cancer Staging at the 2022 AGA Digestive Disease Week ConferencePress Release | 05/11/2022
SALT LAKE CITY, May 11, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stella Diagnostics, Inc. (OTC: SLDX), a molecular diagnostics-based organization optimizing patient management strategies for precancerous and cancerous esophageal diseases, announced today that its abstract titled “Markers in STLA101 Assay Detects Differential Expression to Distinguish Between Intramucosal and Invasive Esophageal Adenocarcinoma” has been selected for presentation during Digestive Disease Week (DDW) 2022, which will take place May 21–24, 2022 at the San Diego Convention Center in San Diego, CA. DDW 2022 is the annual meeting of The American Gastroenterological Association (AGA). Previous DDW conferences have had over 19,000 registrants.
Dr. Joe Abdo, Chief Scientific Officer of Stella Diagnostics, said, “By presenting this data to the members of the AGA at DDW 2022, we intend to highlight the dual utility of the STLA101 markers and its newly discovered ability to potentially differentiate stages of esophageal cancer invasion. This presentation highlights that the markers in the STLA101 panel can inform medical providers if their patient’s esophageal cancer is intramucosal or intramuscular. A large percentage of histologic specimens of esophageal tumors do not show sufficient tissue depth to distinguish intramucosal from invasive carcinomas. Here, we show that molecular diagnostics via mass spectrometry may aid in characterizing the depth of invasion, when paired with histology. Knowing if the disease is still within the walls of the esophagus or has begun to invade through the muscle and into the lymph system highway, is incredibly important information for both patients and physicians. We are very pleased to demonstrate the multi-utility of our diagnostic approach.”
The data package will be co-presented by Dr. Christopher P. Hartley and Dr. Ameya Patil of the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN. Dr. Hartley is a board-certified gastrointestinal pathologist and principal investigator of Stella Diagnostics’ Collaborative Research Agreement with the Mayo Clinic. His research involves several GI diseases and diagnostic modalities, including the assessment of the Company's STLA101 panel that detects and quantifies hallmarks of cancer development in Barrett's esophagus tissue, a precancerous condition with high incidence in the United States. Co-authors of the abstract include Dr. Sumeet Mittal, Director of Norton Thoracic Institute, Dr. Ajay Bansal of Kansas University Medical Center and Dr. Joe Abdo, chief scientist of Stella Diagnostics.
Details of the presentation are as follows:
Session Title: Biomarkers for Detection, Treatment and Prognosis of GI Cancers
Session Date & Time: May 21, 2022 from 12:30 PM to 1:30 PM PDT (UTC –7)
Presentation Title: MARKERS IN STLA101 ASSAY DETECTS DIFFERENTIAL EXPRESSION TO DISTINGUISH BETWEEN INTRAMUCOSAL AND INVASIVE ESOPHAGEAL ADENOCARCINOMA
Esophageal adenocarcinoma is the fastest rising cancer in the United States, with a 700% increase in incidence over the last four decades (Thuy-Van P. Hang, et al). The majority of these patients are diagnosed with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and Barrett's esophagus before their cancer is detected. Even though Barrett’s patients are screened routinely for disease progression, 80% of esophageal cancer patients still present to their oncologist in the advanced stages when the disease is incurable.
About Stella Diagnostics
Stella Diagnostics, Inc. is a molecular diagnostics-based organization focused on improving patient management strategies for over 60 million people living with severe esophageal disease. Stella Diagnostics’ clinical assay will offer physicians insight into the molecular properties of their patients' tissue to determine if the disease is stable, progressing or turning cancerous. Using targeted mass spectrometry proteomics, we believe that informing physicians of the expression patterns playing a role in the pathogenesis of GERD, Barrett's esophagus and esophageal cancer early in the treatment plan may extend or save lives.
Currently, Stella Diagnostics has four tests in the pre-commercialization development stage. Each test is based on different sets of biomarkers. The STLA101 panel consists of novel biomarkers that may be predictive of carcinogenesis in precancerous esophageal tissue. STLA102 consists of biomarkers associated with increased efficacy of resistance to all of the FDA approved chemotherapies and targeted therapies for esophageal adenocarcinoma. The STLA103 panel detects and quantifies proliferation markers discovered and published by Abdo, et al (2015) in which expression trends of these markers would be indicative of rampant cellular multiplication which is a molecular hallmark of cancer. The STLA104 panel detects and quantifies cell-death markers discovered and published by Abdo, et al (2015) in which expression trends of these biomarkers assess a decline in programmed-cell death or apoptosis which can be another hallmark of carcinogenesis.

$SLDX Stella Diagnostics Named ‘Best Clinical Proteomics Solution’ of 2021 by Biotech Breakthrough Awards
Press Release | 02/16/2022
SALT LAKE CITY, Feb. 16, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stella Diagnostics, Inc. (OTC: SLDX), a molecular diagnostics-based organization optimizing patient management strategies for precancerous and cancerous esophageal diseases, today announced its STLA101 mass spec proteomic assay (BEsmart™) was selected as the winner of the “Best Clinical Proteomics Solution of the Year” award for 2021 in the inaugural awards program conducted by BioTech Breakthrough. This year’s program attracted more than 1,200 nominations from over 12 different countries throughout the world.
Dr. Joe Abdo, CEO of Stella Diagnostics, said, “We are very grateful to have Stella Diagnostics' novel STLA101 assay recognized by BioTech Breakthrough for its massive potential clinical utility. Rather than rest on our accolades, this award will serve as motivation for our team to remain steadfast in attaining clinical adoption of STLA101 as a first-line diagnostic tool for patients receiving endoscopies for Barrett’s esophagus. This award supports our mission that providing more robust molecular data of diseased esophageal tissue compared to the current standard of care is a clinical need in gastroenterology.”
Dr. Abdo continued, “Esophageal cancer is currently the fastest rising, deadliest cancer in the U.S. As a two-time cancer survivor, I plan to do all I can to improve the patient management strategies for the millions of people living with precancerous esophageal disease. Using targeted mass spectrometry proteomics, we believe that informing physicians of the expression patterns playing a role in the pathogenesis of GERD, Barrett's esophagus and esophageal cancer early in the treatment plan may extend or save lives.”
Stella Diagnostics is working to see beyond routine gross and microscopic screening of esophageal diseases to better inform gastroenterologists, oncologists and pathologists of the molecular expression trends indicative of disease stability, progression and/or carcinogenesis. Esophageal adenocarcinoma arises from dysplastic tissue of Barrett's esophagus, a complication of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and is the fastest increasing cancer in the United States with a 600% increase over the past 25 years. Esophageal adenocarcinoma, which is linked to Barrett's esophagus, has one of the highest mortality rates in oncology, as more than 80% of patients diagnosed with esophageal adenocarcinoma have already progressed to advanced-stage cancer at the time of diagnosis. Stella Diagnostics’ mass spectroscopy-based proteomic assay, STLA101, offers physicians insight into the molecular properties of their patients’ tissue to determine if the disease is stable, progressing or turning cancerous.
Stella Diagnostics’ assay works in concert with current routine screening sequences to inform physicians of the biomarkers playing a role in the pathogenesis of GERD, Barrett's esophagus, and esophageal cancer. The company is currently undergoing optimization on its BEsmart™ proteomic panel (STLA101) in partnership with mProbe, Inc., and has multiple collaborative research agreements with leading institutions around the U.S., including the Mayo Clinic and Kansas University Medical Center, to assess assay performance of the BEsmart™ Test.

Stella Diagnostics and the University of Kansas Medical Center Enter Into Collaborative Research Agreement
via The Wall Street Journal: https://www.wsj.com/articles/stella-diagnostics-and-the-university-of-kansas-medical-center-enter-into-collaborative-research-agreement-01615903798?tesla=y
KANSAS CITY, KS / ACCESSWIRE / March 16, 2021 / Stella Diagnostics, Inc. (OTC PINK:JMDP) ("Stella" or "The Company") has announced a Collaborative Research Agreement with the University of Kansas Medical Center ("KU Medical Center") to assess the predictability and clinical utility of the Company's STLA101 panel in Barrett's esophagus patients.
The collaboration aims to assess Stella's mass spectroscopy STLA101 assay through the quantification of novel proto-oncogenes in Barrett's esophagus tissue that either progressed to cancer or did not. Ajay Bansal, MD, Gastroenterologist Specialist and Associate Professor at the University of Kansas Medical Center will be the Principal Investigator for the study. This research has the potential to help clinicians better understand the biochemical mechanisms contributing to Barrett's esophagus progressing to esophageal adenocarcinoma, which has the fastest rising rate of incidence of any cancer in the United States.
Dr. Ajay Bansal, attending Gastroenterologist at KU Medical Center, stated: "My research interests has been highly involved in the early detection of Barrett's esophagus and esophageal adenocarcinoma, because if we can achieve this clinically, it will provide a massive benefit to patients with potentially deadly indications. The opportunity to simultaneously assess novel markers along with disease drivers that are well-described in the literature by utilizing the unique strengths of mass spectrometry will allow us to attain an enormous amount of molecular information on patients who did or did not progress to cancer."
CEO of Stella Diagnostics, Dr. Joe Abdo, says: "Our company mission is to provide guidance to gastroenterologists like Dr. Bansal in the management of Barrett's esophagus, dysplasia, and carcinoma. Our partnership with KU Medical Center will help continue to establish our novel diagnostic panel for risk stratification of disease progression in Barrett's esophagus tissue, which will have a significant impact on the surveillance and treatment of these patients."
Barrett's esophagus, the only known precursor to esophageal adenocarcinoma, is estimated to affect 6 million Americans (Modiano, et al). In most cases, esophageal cancer is a treatable disease, but it is rarely curable. The 5-year overall survival rate in patients fit for treatment ranges from 5% to 25% depending on the stage of presentation. The infrequent patient with very early disease has a better chance of survival (cancer.gov). KU Medical Center and Stella Diagnostics will work to elucidate the proteomic expression trends that are contributing to the pathogenesis of BE tissue that progresses into deadly neoplasms, ultimately aiming to detect malignant transformations before cancer ever develops.

Did Stella effect a reverse merger with_JMDP in which they (Abdo) will becom3 the surviving entity?
Are Leinwand, Welner, Wainstein and their cohorts still involved in the management of this ticker in any shape, form or fashion? How much of the company do they still own? If so...
Why are they still named as directors on OTC and why haven't the new directors been added?
Total shares authorized: 12,000,000,000 as of: 07/19/2016
Total shares outstanding: 7,259,674,499 as of: 06/30/2016
Leinwand & Welner pulled a 1-for-50,000 reverse split on 3/8/2019. The day before investors who owned 1 million @ .0001 ($100 value) woke the next day with 20 shares @ $5.00 (also $100) and were soon destroyed when the PPS fell back to pennies.
DILUTION--
If they had reduced the A/S by the same amount the 12 billion shares would have only been 240,000!!! Instead, they effected a gigantic percentage increase in the O/S by declaring it to be 1 billion. And in the 2 years since they've issued and burned thru a huge portion of that when compared to the pre-R/S

Dr. Joe Abdo, the CEO of Stella Diagnostics: "mProbe has been a mainstay in the cancer diagnostics space for over a decade and we could not be working with a better team of scientists and clinicians to help build out and optimize our product candidates. Our mission at Stella is to stratify patients by disease severity with our multi-pronged biochemical approach. In doing so, high risk patients shall be identified at the disease onset when it is most treatable. We are very excited about the collaborative partnership with mProbe in assessing every aspect of our novel diagnostic panels."
Dr. Sheeno Thyparambil, the Senior Director of Research at mProbe stated, "Stella Diagnostics has developed oncology-specific molecular diagnostics panels that have the potential to help physicians optimize how they screen and/or treat millions of patients with precancerous or malignant diseases of the lower esophagus. Although not well publicized or broadly discussed, esophageal disease is increasing at an enormous rate in the US. Working with Stella affords us the opportunity to potentially help those patients."
Barrett's esophagus is the only known precursor to esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) and these patients have a 125-fold higher risk of developing cancer of the lower esophagus. The incidence rate of EAC has increased 700% over the last four decades, making it the fastest rising cancer in oncology. Four out of five EAC patients presenting to their physician are in the advanced stages of the disease. The average overall survival of EAC is just 13 months from the day of diagnosis.

Apr 7, 2018 — I have acted as legal counsel for 3D Eye Solutions, Inc. (TDEY or the ... The Company has nine billion (12,000,000,000) authorized shares of which 7,259,674,499 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.)That was the attorney opinion letter. So this ticker had 9 billion (or 12b. Simon Kogan's letterhead reads "c/o Clove Lakes Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center, Inc" where he was recovering from a stroke so I assume the 12b is a mistake).
POINT BEING... new management pulled a 1-for-50,000 R/S BUT only reduced the A/S from 9 billion to 1 billion. IF they had reduced the A/S by the same amount it would have been a mere 180,000 shares.
So all things being equal, the 1 billion A/S (cough cough) "reduction" was actually equivalent to a gigantic increase in the number of shares... +555,455% if my math is correct. And that O/S of 7,259,674,499 which was reduced to by the R/S to 145,193 has since exploded to >>96,365,470<< ...equivalent to a pre-R/S increase of >> +66,271%
This is how scam tickers destroy old shareholders then move on to repeat the process.

Stella Diagnostics CEO Joe Abdo featured on Global Cancer Advocacy Podcast 'Out of Patients with Matthew Zachary'
Press Release | 11/05/2020
NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / November 5, 2020 / Stella Diagnostics, Inc. (OTC PINK:JMDP), a molecular diagnostics-based organization focused on improving patient management strategies for people living with preneoplastic and cancerous esophageal diseases, today announced that the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Joe Abdo was featured in an episode of the popular podcast Out of Patients with Matthew Zachary. "Episode 62: The De-jargoning with Dr. Joe Abdo" was released on November 3, 2020.
In this episode, Dr. Abdo discusses the current state of precision medicine, molecular diagnostic testing for cancer and his experience working in the world of oncology as a two-time young adult cancer survivor. Matthew Zachary is a young adult cancer survivor and has been a patient advocate for over two decades.
"I was honored to be invited as a guest on Matthew's incredibly important patient advocacy platform. Matthew and I were both treated for brain cancer in the same year and we belong to a club of ex-patients who never stopped fighting cancer after remission," said Abdo. "It was a privilege to not only share my story but also to advocate for dialogue between patients and their providers regarding molecular diagnostics and targeted therapies, which are frequently not included in standard of care protocols for many cancers. Matthew and I had a great discussion, and ultimately I hope that patients currently going through cancer treatment can have more-informed discussions with their doctors about their diagnostic and treatment options after listening to this episode."
"This show is about raw, unfiltered and honest conversations with advocates, entrepreneurs, clinical experts and storytellers who embody what it means to make a dent in the universe. Joe is no exception to that and it was a pleasure to have him as my guest," said podcast host and founder Matthew Zachary.
After surviving brain cancer, Matthew Zachary created the first health podcast "Stupid Cancer" and initiated a global movement advocating for dignity in the face of health adversity. Matthew continues his legacy of building community, galvanizing the patient voice, and pushing back on the status quo with OffScrip Media, the first digital health podcast network focused on patient advocacy, education, and empowerment. Matthew and his work have been featured in Newsweek, People, Time, The Atlantic, Wall Street Journal, the New York Times and many more.
"Episode 62: The De-jargoning with Dr. Joe Abdo" is currently streaming on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.

Stella Diagnostics to Present Data on Discovery of Proteomic Chemoresistance Network in Esophageal Cancer Tissue
Thursday, October 22, 2020 3:40 PM
NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / October 22, 2020 / Stella Diagnostics, Inc. (OTC PINK:JMDP), a molecular diagnostics-based organization focused on improving patient management strategies for over 67 million people living with severe esophageal disease, today announced that Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Joe Abdo will deliver a company presentation (Abstract ID 148) at the 32nd EORTC NCI AACR Symposium on Molecular Targets and Cancer Therapeutics, being held virtually October 24-25, 2020. The data presentation is entitled "Discovery Proteomics Detects Expression Trends Associated with Resistance to the Most Commonly Used Chemotherapies in Esophageal Adenocarcinoma (EAC)" and was accepted after peer-review in the Drug Resistance and Modifiers session.
"Esophageal adenocarcinoma is the deadliest form of cancer relative to incidence in the United States and is also one of the least researched neoplasms despite its increasing prevalence. Strikingly, esophageal adenocarcinoma is the fastest rising cancer in the U.S. with a 600% increase over the past 25 years," explained first author of the abstract, Dr. Sumeet Mittal.
Dr. Mittal is a board-certified general surgeon and Surgical Director of the Esophageal and Foregut Program at Norton Thoracic Institute, St. Joseph's Hospital and Medical Center. Dr. Mittal is a Clinical Advisor for the Company.
"Our group was intrigued by esophageal cancer's ability to consistently resist combination chemotherapeutics and evade sensitization to drugs like cisplatin, taxanes and anthracyclines," said Dr. Abdo. "Therefore, we designed a molecular dragnet to detect and quantify expression trends in esophageal cancer cells that are associated with chemoresistance. We discovered a network of consistently down-regulated or overexpressed biomarkers that may contribute to broad resistance against common chemotherapies currently used for first-line therapy for EAC."
Dr. Mittal added, "Ultimately, these findings demonstrate a clinical need for actionable molecular diagnostics and new targeted therapy options for EAC patients."
The Company's presentation will be available on demand to registered participants through the conference website.
