FT. MYERS, FL / ACCESSWIRE / April 6, 2023 / NeoGenomics, Inc. (NASDAQ:NEO), a leading provider of oncology testing and global contract research services, announced today that the company and its collaborators will present a total of nine abstracts at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting 2023 taking place April 14-19, 2023 in Orlando, Florida.

NeoGenomics, alongside collaborators, will present new data demonstrating the broad portfolio of services and available validated assays focused on tumor biology, including the use of RaDaR®, a personalized, highly-sensitive liquid biopsy sequencing test for the detection of minimal residual disease (MRD) and recurrence.

"We are especially excited to share data on RaDaR, comparing the performance of NeoGenomics' proprietary technology to other MRD tests on the market," said Dr. Shashikant Kulkarni, MS, Ph.D., MBA, FACMG, Chief Scientific Officer of NeoGenomics. "These data highlight our deep expertise in NGS profiling and our commitment to innovation in cancer monitoring to better service cancer patients and their providers."

About RaDaR^®

The RaDaR^® assay is a personalized, tumor-informed, highly sensitive technology that tracks a set of up to 48 tumor-specific variants in cell-free DNA (cfDNA) within a cancer patient's blood plasma. Built on the proven InVision^® platform, the personalized RaDaR assay has been designed to detect minimal residual disease (MRD) and recurrence following curative intent or definitive treatment, and early signs of relapse, and has been validated for clinical use in breast, colorectal, head and neck, as well as lung cancers. MRD is the trace amounts of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) that remain after surgery or other cancer treatment.

The RaDaR workflow leverages proprietary algorithms to both create personalized RaDaR panels for each patient and analyze results of a RaDaR test, all culminating in an exceptionally sensitive test with one of the industry's leading limit of detections (LODs) down to 0.001%.

The RaDaR assay is a laboratory developed test (LDT) which has been granted Breakthrough Device Designation by the US FDA for use in the detection of MRD in early-stage cancer patients and has received the CE mark for the detection of MRD and recurrence. RaDaR is also available for pharmaceutical, biotechnology companies and commercial entities in early through late-stage cancer development programs across a range of cancer types.

About MultiOmyx^TM

MultiOmyx™, a proprietary multiplexed immunofluorescence (IF) technology, enables visualization and characterization of multiple biomarkers on a single FFPE tissue section. MultiOmyx protein assays utilize a pair of directly conjugated Cyanine dye-labeled (Cy3, Cy5) antibodies per round of staining. Each round of staining is imaged and followed by novel dye inactivation chemistry, enabling repeated rounds of staining and deactivation for up to 60 protein biomarkers. This unambiguous classification of diverse immune cell phenotypes and characterization of immune activation and suppression in context to tumor and stromal regions provides a comprehensive analysis of the tumor microenvironment.
