Avant Technologies' Partner, Ainnova, Signs Pilot Program with Roche to Combat Diabetic Retinopathy

Avant Technologies, Inc. (OTCQB: AVAI), an emerging technology company developing , 听it has entered into a strategic alliance with global biotech giant Roche Holding AG (OTCQX: RHHBY, RHHVF), and leading pre-paid health plan provider Salud 360, to begin a pilot program to combat diabetic retinopathy using cutting-edge technology from Avant's partner Ainnova Tech, a leading healthcare technology company focused on revolutionizing early disease detection using AI.听

Roche, Ainnova, and Salud 360 signed a strategic alliance to improve access to vision screening in patients with uncontrolled diabetes with the hope of decreasing the risks of diabetic retinopathy using Ainnova's advanced technology and a patient-centered approach.

The pilot program will initially be implemented in Costa Rica where diabetes . If successful, Avant and Ainnova hope to implement a similar program in the United States, Canada, and Europe through Ai-nova Acquisition Corp. (AAC), the company formed by the partnership between Avant and Ainnova.

"At Roche, we are committed to timely diagnosis of diseases to improve clinical outcomes and thus contribute to the sustainability of the healthcare system," said, Alvaro Soto, General Manager of Roche Central America, Caribbean, and Venezuela. "By leveraging technology, we seek to improve lives, optimize diagnoses, and ensure that every patient has access to timely and effective treatment. With this model, we not only seek to address the problem of diabetic retinopathy, but also to establish a replicable path for other diseases that require innovative solutions."

The pilot program will use non-mydriatic fundus cameras and artificial intelligence鈥攄eveloped by Ainnova Tech鈥攖o automatically analyze retinal images and identify microscopic changes in the retina. Such changes would be an early indicator of diabetic retinopathy without the need for invasive tests.

By implementing the pilot program in Costa Rica, this strategic alliance can take advantage of the country's robust healthcare system and its focus on technological innovation. Patients who are members of Salud 360 will be the first to benefit from screenings at affiliated clinics. Those at risk will be referred immediately to ophthalmology specialists, guaranteeing comprehensive and timely care.

The results of this pilot program will be the basis for developing the model beyond borders to benefit communities facing similar challenges in accessing medical care.

"We are proud to be able to put our technology at the service of a project that has the potential to prove itself as a massive impact model in early detection, and which we believe is replicable globally," said Vinicio Vargas, CEO of Ainnova Tech and member of AAC's Board of Directors. "Today, we are starting with diabetic retinopathy, but the vision is that we can eventually multiply this same effort for other critical diseases that require innovative solutions."

According to data from the Costa Rican Institute for Research and Teaching in Nutrition and Health (Inciensa), uncontrolled diabetes is the leading cause of preventable blindness in the country's adult population. To make matters worse, between 20% and 40% of diabetic patients develop diabetic retinopathy, a silent but devastating condition if not detected and treated in time.

According to the World Health Organization, are preventable with early and effective interventions. Therefore, early detection is crucial and technological innovation can help make a huge difference.

Prior to the Roche announcement, Avant and Ainnova Tech shared that they are also 听Ainnova's proprietary low-cost retinal camera, which will be used for fundus photography, and seamlessly packaged together with Ainnova's Vision AI software platform for commercialization.
