"Emerging technologies leveraging ctDNA and NGS are increasing our ability to identify cancers in high-risk patients, which was previously beyond reach," said Dr. Nathan Montgomery, Vice President of Medical Services at NeoGenomics. "Collectively, our findings demonstrate the potential of advanced molecular diagnostics to detect cancer earlier, guide more personalized treatments, and ultimately improve patient outcomes worldwide."
NeoGenomics’ poster presentations include:
Real-World Analysis of Actionable Gene Fusions Identified by NGS and Correlation with IHC in 422 Patients from the Community (78P)
Presentation Date: Sunday, September 15, 2024
Results show that testing for 19 drug-targetable fusions can identify up to four times more patients for matched therapies compared to testing only for NTRK fusions or using IHC, suggesting that NGS testing for multiple fusions could greatly expand treatment options for cancer patients.
ctDNA-Lung-Detect: Profiling of Non-Shedding ctDNA Early Stage Resected Non-Small Cell Lung Cancers (1236P)
Presentation Date: Saturday, September 14, 2024
This study represents one of the largest prospective cohorts of ctDNA assessments in early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), identifying patients at high risk of relapse who may benefit from more aggressive treatment.
CLEAR-Me: Interception Trial to Detect and Clear Molecular Residual Disease in Patients with High-Risk Melanoma (226TiP)
Presentation Date: Sunday, September 15, 2024
This Phase II trial evaluated ctDNA as a marker to guide treatment decisions in high-risk melanoma patients. It compares the effectiveness of combining anti-LAG-3 with anti-PD-1 therapy versus anti-PD-1 inhibition alone.
