Welcome to our dedicated page for ANGLE PLC ORD news (Ticker: ANPCF), a resource for investors and traders seeking the latest updates and insights on ANGLE PLC ORD stock.
ANGLE PLC ORD (ANPCF) is a world-leading liquid biopsy company focusing on innovative circulating tumour cell (CTC) diagnostic solutions for research, drug development, and clinical oncology. The company utilizes the Parsortix® system for efficient CTC harvesting, enabling downstream analysis including whole cell imaging, proteomic analysis, and full genomic and transcriptomic molecular analysis. ANGLE's recent breakthrough involves real-time parallel Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) DNA analysis of CTCs and ctDNA from a single tube of patient blood. This approach, combined with the Parsortix® system, offers valuable insights into cancer research, treatment selection, and disease monitoring.
ANGLE plc announced the presentation of an independent study by Weill Cornell Medicine at the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium, showcasing a novel Parsortix-based HER2 workflow. The study, involving 16 metastatic breast cancer patients, demonstrated 100% success in isolating CTCs and classifying their HER2 status. The research identified patients with HER2-expressing CTCs who had HER2-negative tissue biopsies, suggesting potential for expanded treatment options.
The workflow enables quantitative and semi-automated assessment of HER2 in CTCs, which is important as HER2 status can change in up to 38% of breast cancer patients. This development could help identify patients eligible for HER2-targeted antibody drug conjugates (ADCs), particularly beneficial for the over 60% of breast cancer patients initially diagnosed as HER2-negative.
ANGLE plc has presented new data at the AACR Special Conference showcasing their Parsortix-based PD-L1 assay for lung cancer monitoring. The assay demonstrated high analytical sensitivity and specificity in identifying different CTC phenotypes and determining PD-L1 status. In a study of metastatic lung cancer patients, CTCs were identified in 91% of cases, with PD-L1 positive CTCs found in 72% of patients with PD-L1 positive tissue biopsies and 27% of those with negative biopsies. The technology enables minimally invasive, longitudinal monitoring of PD-L1 status, potentially advancing personalized treatment approaches.
ANGLE plc presented two posters at the EACR Liquid Biopsies Conference in Lyon, France. The first poster demonstrated the effectiveness of combining Parsortix system with Portrait+ CTC staining kit for detecting and characterizing circulating tumor cells (CTCs). In prostate cancer patients, 64% showed CTC positivity, with 67% of positive samples containing CTC clusters. Notably, 77% of CTC-positive patients had only mesenchymal CTCs.
The second poster showcased enhanced multiplexing capabilities in digital PCR for CTC analysis, demonstrating improved molecular characterization potential using QIAGEN's Qiacuity dPCR system with Parsortix-enriched samples. This advancement allows for simultaneous assessment of multiple genes from a single sample.
ANGLE plc (AIM:AGL)(OTCQX:ANPCY) has signed an agreement with NuProbe USA, Inc. for the use of their proprietary pan-cancer next generation sequencing (NGS) panel. The agreement grants ANGLE an option for an exclusive global license to the NGS panel outside of China for analyzing circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and dual analysis of CTCs and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA).
The NGS panel enables highly sensitive detection of over 6,500 DNA mutations in 61 clinically relevant genes. It has been validated on the Illumina sequencer and aligns with key drug targets under development by large pharma. This agreement aims to accelerate ANGLE's commercialization of its first pan-cancer molecular sequencing assay, with immediate applicability to pharma services customers and translational researchers using the Parsortix® system.
A pilot study conducted by ANGLE demonstrated that more mutations were identified exclusively in CTCs compared to ctDNA alone in breast, lung, and ovarian cancer patients, highlighting the potential value of profiling CTCs in addition to ctDNA.
ANGLE plc (AIM:AGL)(OTCQX:ANPCY) has signed an agreement with Recursion Pharmaceuticals for a pilot study using ANGLE's Parsortix CTC analysis. The study is fully funded, with potential for larger follow-on contracts if successful. This marks ANGLE's fourth pharma agreement in 2024, expanding its large pharma services business. Recursion, a clinical-stage TechBio company, has partnerships with multiple leading large pharma companies. While the initial study is modest in size, it could lead to significant opportunities. The agreement's details remain confidential between the parties.
