Predicine a frontrunner in precision oncology, has announced its presentation of data from 15 circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) studies at AACR 2024. These findings underscore the clinical efficacy of Predicine’s genomic and epigenomic liquid biopsy solutions across patient selection, disease monitoring, and elucidating disease mechanisms. The forthcoming data signifies a substantial stride towards the practical application of Predicine’s state-of-the-art liquid biopsy technology in personalized cancer care, clinical trials, and advancing Companion Diagnostics (CDx).
The studies to be unveiled at the conference highlight the unique benefits of PredicineBEACON™ and methylation-based PredicineALERT™ MRD, showcasing their utility in biomarker discovery, therapy selection, response monitoring, and analyzing drug resistance mechanisms. Predicine operates as a global molecular insights company committed to propelling precision medicine in oncology and infectious disease diagnostics. Through its development of proprietary cell-free DNA and RNA-based liquid biopsy technologies, Predicine aims to enable minimally invasive molecular diagnosis for early cancer detection, treatment selection, therapy response, minimal residual disease monitoring, and tracking disease progression. With business operations spanning across several key locations worldwide, Predicine collaborates with leading biopharma companies, institutions, and governments to advocate for personalized healthcare on a global scale.
Meanwhile, Guardant Health, another leader in precision oncology, has also announced its presentation of data from nine studies focusing on advances in methylation-based epigenomic analysis at the AACR 2024 Annual Meeting. The presentations will highlight the utility of the Guardant Infinity™ platform across various aspects of cancer care, including predictive histologic subtyping, cardiac adverse event prediction, and minimal residual disease detection in breast cancer using Guardant Reveal. Helmy Eltoukhy, Guardant Health chairman and co-CEO, emphasized the potential of epigenomic analysis to advance cancer research, expand patient eligibility for clinical trials, and contribute to targeted therapy development.
The Guardant Infinity smart liquid biopsy platform integrates genomic and epigenomic profiling to provide comprehensive insights into cancer, aiding researchers, and clinicians in characterizing and quantifying tumors, understanding tumor heterogeneity, disease progression, and treatment response. These epigenomic insights enable more personalized treatment strategies, enhancing accuracy in minimal residual disease detection and monitoring, identifying new patients, and predicting responses to therapy through novel epigenomic biomarkers. Guardant Health, since its inception in 2012, has been dedicated to transforming patient care by providing critical insights into disease drivers through advanced blood and tissue tests, real-world data, and AI analytics, ultimately improving outcomes across all stages of cancer care.
