Ilkka Haapala’s PhD dissertation explored the possibility of differentiating tumour types and specific mutations based on DMS. We want to congratulate Ilkka on his successful defense of the dissertation at Tampere University on 11.10.2024! IonVision was used as the DMS in several of the studies. The dissertation found that DMS can be used to identify the most common brain tumour ...
SOPHiA GENETICS offers a comprehensive suite of liquid biopsy applications that have helped progress oncology research and tumor mutation profiling. Liquid biopsy testing offers an alternative to solid tumor testing by isolating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) from blood plasma, which may uncover circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA). ...
” ORSERDU is approved under the FDA’s Priority Review and Fast Track designation based on the results of the registrational Phase III trial EMERALD, that demonstrated statistically significant progression-free survival (PFS) with elacestrant vs SOC endocrine monotherapy (fulvestrant, letrozole, anastrozole, exemestane), meeting both primary endpoints in all patients and in those ...
Cancer is known to cause by the accumulation of harmful genetic mutations within cells. At present, the research on the mechanism of abnormal cell proliferation, differentiation, and carcinogenesis is mainly divided into three categories: activation of dominant transformation proto-oncogene through translocation and mutation, inactivation of ...
Stephanie Pond, Vice President of Emerging Opportunities at TGen. DIPG is a brain tumor that occurs in an area of the brainstem (the pons) which controls many of the body’s most vital functions such as breathing, blood pressure, and heart rate. Because of its location in the brain and how rapidly it progresses, DIPG is difficult to treat and is regarded as a high-grade ...
Background TMZ-induced G:T mismatches trigger mismatch repair (MMR) to perform futile repair of O6-meG necessary to achieve apoptosis. Without intact MMR, the G:T mutation does not cause cell death, but instead is genomically incorporated to produce DNA mutation signature #11. ...
Cancer Vaccine Development Based on pMHC Cancer vaccines to enhance the immune response, target tumor-specific mutations not present in normal tissues, and eradicate tumors. Vaccine Development Based on VLPs with MHC Complex To demonstrate and deliver specific tumor-associated MHC complex antigens and create more scalable and ...
DR CHENG BOON, ONCOLOGIST IN THE PRIVATE SECTOR AND THE NHS AS WELL AS ACTING AS ONCODNA UK MEDIAL DIRECTOR COMMENTED: “In my view, this is an important first step in a collaboration that will make it much easier for public and privately practising oncologists to access biopsy tissue and request ONCODEEP* for the purpose of routine next generation sequencing. This unique public-private ...
The OncoDEEP Kit integrates both reagents and quality control reporting for sequencing over 600 cancer genes and relevant biomarkers, together with OncoDNA’s data analysis and clinical interpretation tools for the rapid analysis and reporting of a patient’s tumor molecular profile. The OncoDEEP Kit has been developed by expert oncologists to contain the most complete ...
AFM28 induced potent, effective, and specific anti-tumor activity against CD123-positive cells irrespective of mutational status Study demonstrated specific anti-tumor response even at low levels of CD123 expression with no evidence for off-target cytotoxic activity towards CD123-negative healthy bone marrow progenitors In vivo studies of an ...
Preclinical data have shown that AFM24 can induce NK cell-mediated killing of EGFR-positive solid tumor cell lines, independent of EGFR mutational status. The analysis also showed activation of cytotoxic T cells in the periphery, and infiltration of T cells into the tumor bed, suggesting stimulation of anti-cancer immunity beyond the innate ...
Crown Bioscience, a JSR Life Sciences company, and HUB Organoids (HUB) announced today the publication of preclinical data in the journal, Nature Cancer, on a bispecific antibody which prevents the onset of metastasis and slows the growth of primary tumors in experimental models of cancer. The study was the result of work by an international consortium, SuppresSTEM which ...
Biomarkers have been shown to help identify patients who are most likely to benefit from treatment with immunotherapies, such as PD-1/PD-L1-targeted therapies. Still, the gold standard of tumor tissue PD-L1 staining, as well as other biomarkers, such as tumor mutational burden, do not always accurately predict the efficacy of these therapies in ...
INTEGRATING ONCODEEP IN THEIR PORTFOLIO, SYNLAB LABORATORIES IN GERMANY WILL PERFORM COMPREHENSIVE TESTING OF SOLID TUMORS AND DELIVER DECISION SUPPORT FOR ONCOLOGISTS. THE TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER IS ONGOING, WITH THE OBJECTIVE OF PROCESSING THE FIRST PATIENT SAMPLES EARLY Q2. ...
Emily Hinchcliff (now at Northwestern University Cancer Center), the lead author of the report, noted that based on observations in two exceptional survivors, her team became interested in survival outcomes in patients with inactivating somatic tumor mutations in PPP2R1A, the major scaffold subunit of the protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) multimeric enzyme. ...
THE OFFER WILL COME IN COMBINATION WITH ONCODNA’S DATA ANALYSIS AND CLINICAL INTERPRETATION TOOLS FOR THE RAPID ANALYSIS AND REPORTING OF A PATIENT’S TUMOR MOLECULAR PROFILE. ONCODEEP KIT IS AVAILABLE FOR EARLY ACCESS AND WILL BE COMMERCIALLY AVAILABLE BY THE END OF Q2 2022. ...
About FoundationOne®CDx FoundationOne CDx is a next-generation sequencing based in vitro diagnostic device for detection of substitutions, insertion and deletion alterations (indels), and copy number alterations (CNAs) in 324 genes and select gene rearrangements, as well as genomic signatures including microsatellite instability (MSI) and tumor mutational ...
The test integrates genomic and epigenomic signatures to detect disease without the need for tumor tissue. (Abstract 168) Additionally, clinical utility data will demonstrate that the Guardant360® liquid biopsy test detects microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) status in patients with advanced gastrointestinal cancers at a similar frequency to tissue-based testing1,2. ...
The test looks for hundreds of biomarkers in a small amount of tumor tissue, including complex genomic signatures like tumor mutational burden (TMB), homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) and microsatellite instability (MSI) that can determine whether immunotherapy or PARP inhibitors would work for a patient. ...
Melanoma is a serious form of skin cancer that accounts for an estimated 207,790 cases each year.1 BRAF mutations are the most common type of mutation in melanoma and are present in more than half of all melanoma cases.2 As a companion diagnostic for therapies targeting BRAFV600E and BRAFV600K mutations in melanoma, FoundationOne®CDx offers ...
