Strata Oncology Announces Presentations on Proprietary Multivariate Biomarkers at North America Conference on Lung Cancer and San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium

Results include support for utility of Immunotherapy Response Score for individualized treatment decision-making in NSCLC and pan-tumor predictive power of Antibody-Drug Conjugate Treatment Response Score

Strata Oncology, Inc. (“Strata”), a next-generation precision oncology company enabling smarter cancer treatment, today announced that it will present new data in scientific posters at the 2023 North America Conference on Lung Cancer (NACLC) taking place December 1-3, 2023 in Chicago, Illinois and the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium (SABCS) taking place December 5-9, 2023 in San Antonio, Texas.

The data to be presented includes results for innovative, proprietary predictive biomarkers for response to anti-PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy and antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) — the Immunotherapy Response Score (IRS) and ADC Treatment Response Score (ADC TRS), respectively. Strata has developed these biomarkers and others using data collected through an observational clinical trial protocol called the Strata Trial® (NCT03061305). All of these biomarkers take advantage of the company’s unique molecular profiling platform that combines DNA and quantitative RNA sequencing on a single small tumor tissue sample.

“Many of the most exciting recent advances in cancer treatment – such as immunotherapy and antibody-drug conjugates – do not currently have biomarkers that can accurately predict response. Strata has taken on this challenge by advancing multivariate predictive treatment selection algorithms that capture the complex biology required for a tumor response,” said Scott Tomlins, M.D., Ph.D., Strata Oncology co-founder and chief medical officer. “We believe that this type of strategy is required to fully realize the potential of precision oncology to improve patient outcomes. We look forward to sharing our latest advances at NACLC and SABCS.”

Poster presentation details are below. Both posters will be available on the Strata Oncology website following the presentation.

Jupiter Endovascular Reports | 1st U.S. Patient Treated with Jupiter Shape-shifting Thrombectomy Device

“Navigation challenges during endovascular procedures are often underappreciated and have led to under-adoption of life-saving procedures, such as pulmonary embolectomy. We have purpose-built our Endoportal Control technology to solve these issues and make important endovascular procedures accessible to more clinicians and their patients who can benefit from them,” said Carl J. St. Bernard, Jupiter Endovascular CEO. “This first case in the U.S. could not have gone better, and appears to validate the safety and performance we are seeing in our currently-enrolling European SPIRARE I study.”
