Caris Life Sciences Announces Presentation of Comprehensive Tumor Profiling Research at the 2015 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting | Caris Life Sciences
Research Demonstrates Clinical Utility of Caris Molecular Intelligence and Advances Molecular Understanding of Cancer to Enable the Delivery of Precision Medicine
IRVING, Tex., May 14, 2015 – Caris Life Sciences®, a leading biotechnology company focused on fulfilling the promise of precision medicine, today announces the acceptance of 22 clinical studies by the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) for presentation at the annual meeting to be held May 29 through June 2 in Chicago, Ill. The studies conducted in partnership with leading academic and clinical institutions provide oncologists with a better understanding of how to treat cancer based on molecular drivers identified through comprehensive tumor profiling.
“Biomarker research continues to be a critically important tool for oncologists in the clinical setting, especially for those treating rare and aggressive cancers where treatment options are limited and little evidence is available to guide care,” said Sandeep K. Reddy, M.D., Chief Medical Officer at Caris Life Sciences. “These studies highlight molecular similarities and differences between cancer subtypes and identify targetable pathways across a wide variety of malignancies. The data collectively demonstrate our ability to personalize cancer care for patients today by treating each unique cancer based on the molecular makeup of their tumors.”
