Data Presented at AACR 2024 Showcase Precede Biosciences’ Power to Impact Precision Medicine from a Simple Blood Test
Data further underscore potential to inform therapy selection for antibody drug conjugates and other target-directed therapies across breast, lung, and gastro-esophageal cancers
Targets revealed from a single 1mL plasma sample include B7H4, CEACAM5, CLDN18, EGFR, HER2, HER3, MET, NECTIN4, and TROP2
To date, platform has revealed therapeutically actionable disease biology across fifteen cancers
Boston, MA – April 10, 2024 – Precede Biosciences, a company impacting the development and use of precision medicines with a first-in-class comprehensive epigenomic liquid biopsy platform, today shared three scientific poster presentations from the 2024 American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting.
“The data presented at AACR 2024 add to the growing body of evidence supporting our platform’s unique ability to provide genome-wide insight into the activation status of therapeutic targets, pathways, and resistance mechanisms, all from a simple blood draw,” said Carl Barrett, Chief Scientific Officer of Precede Bio. “As such, we have a significant opportunity to better inform patient selection and enable indication expansion for the many promising agents addressing these targets and pathways with our platform.”
“Our study highlights the need for new approaches to profile the biology of gastro-esophageal adenocarcinoma, an aggressive disease in which patients can progress quickly,” said Samuel Klempner, MD, medical oncologist at Massachusetts General Hospital and senior author for the abstract on gastro-esophageal cancers. “Precede Bio’s liquid biopsy platform could represent an important advance enabling informed treatment decisions and personalized patient care throughout the cancer journey for this difficult-to-treat cancer.”
Precede Bio’s posters from AACR 2024 can be found in the presentations section of the company website and are linked directly below:
- Comprehensive epigenomic profiling from plasma to inform therapy selection: A proof-of-concept study in cancer
- A novel epigenomic profiling assay reveals disease biology and therapeutic targets in gastro-esophageal cancer from 1mL of plasma
- Novel liquid biopsy-based determination of lung cancer histology using a comprehensive epigenomic platform reveals enhancer activity as a key determinant for accurate classification
