Precede Biosciences Presents Data at AACR 2025 Demonstrating Ability to Resolve Gene Expression for Thousands of Tumor-Specific Genes from a Simple Blood Test
- Comprehensive epigenomic platform enables systematic and quantitative prediction of tumor gene expression from cell-free DNA
- Genes include key targets for next generation precision medicines, such as NECTIN4, B7H4, HER3, DLL3, MUC1, MET, and HER2 and master regulators of transcription, such as AR, ER, FOXA1, ASCL1, and NEUROD1
- Results underscore the power of the Precede Bio platform to inform therapeutic decisions and to resolve mechanisms of response and resistance from only 1mL of plasma
/EIN News/ -- BOSTON, April 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Precede Biosciences, a company impacting the development and use of precision medicines with a first-in-class comprehensive epigenomic liquid biopsy platform, today shared the company’s scientific presentation from the 2025 American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting taking place from April 25 to 30, 2025, in Chicago, Illinois.
“Incorporating transcriptional insights into clinical decision-making could refine how we match patients to therapies, especially when biopsy isn’t feasible or actionable targets are driven by expression, not mutation,” said Gordon Mills, MD, PhD, Professor of Cell, Developmental and Cancer Biology, School of Medicine; Director of Precision Oncology, Wayne and Julie Drinkward Endowed Chair in Precision Oncology, Knight Cancer Institute, Oregon Health and Science University.
“The data presented at AACR demonstrate the significant advances we continue to make as we work towards more fully enabling biology-based decision-making in both drug R&D and in clinical practice,” said Rehan Verjee, CEO of Precede Bio. “While the ability to predict the expression of more than 2,500 disease-relevant tumor genes in a patient with advanced cancer from only 1mL of plasma may seem impressive, these results are in fact a new lower bound for what we can achieve with our platform.”
Data presented at AACR 2025 can be found in the presentations section of the company website and below:
