Metastatic Tumor Profiles Lead to Potential Treatment Targets

Metastatic cancer is a major cause of death and is associated with poor treatment efficacy. A better understanding of the characteristics of late-stage cancer is required to help adapt personalized treatments, reduce overtreatment and improve outcomes. More...

Full Analytical Data Validated for Target Selector ctDNA Assays

Tumor tissue has traditionally been required for both cancer diagnosis and molecular biomarker testing. All too often, acquired tissue is exhausted during the initial diagnosis, leaving insufficient tissue for subsequent biomarker testing. More...

Blood and Urine Metabolic Biomarkers Monitor Short-term Dietary Changes

Metabolites found in plasma and urine samples may serve as responsive biomarkers reflecting short-term changes in the habitual diet. More...

Large-Scale Schizophrenia Exome Sequencing Identifies New Risk Genes

Schizophrenia affects about 0.7% of the population and shortens life expectancy by 12 to 15 years. Though it has long been known to have a genetic component, little progress has been made in identifying new targets for therapy. More...

Nasopharyngeal Pneumococcal Density Associated with Invasive Lung Disease

Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus) is one of the most important bacterial causes of pneumonia among children and adults worldwide. Nasopharyngeal pneumococcal colonization is common in young children and represents a critical initial step in the progression to invasive disease. More...

Post-Treatment Colon Cancer Recurrence Identified by ctDNA Detection

By analyzing circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) samples after treatment, it may be possible to identify stage III colon cancer patients who are at increased risk of relapse and disease progression. More...

Degree of Amyloid-Beta Misfolding Is Predictor of Alzheimer’s Disease Risk

Measurement of misfolded Abeta (amyloid-beta) protein in blood plasma was shown to be a strong, specific risk prediction marker for clinical Alzheimer’s disease even many years before clinical diagnosis. More...
