SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Veracyte, Inc. (Nasdaq: VCYT) today announced that six abstracts highlighting new data focused on the company’s Decipher urologic cancer testing offerings will be presented at the 2023 ASCO Genitourinary (GU) Cancers Symposium, taking place in San Francisco, Calif. and online, February 16-18, 2023.
Data being presented include new insights derived from Veracyte’s Decipher Genomics Resource for Intelligent Discovery (GRID) database, which suggest potential opportunities to further personalize treatment for men with prostate cancer. Additionally, researchers will present new Decipher Prostate Genomic Classifier clinical utility data from the prospective, phase 3, randomized clinical trial, G-MINOR (Genomics in Michigan ImpactiNg Observation or Radiation).
“Veracyte is committed to helping empower physicians with the insights they need to guide more informed, individualized treatment for patients with urologic cancers,” said Elai Davicioni, Ph.D., Veracyte’s medical director for Urology. “The data being presented at this year’s ASCO GU Cancers Symposium advance our understanding of how our Decipher genomic tests and Decipher GRID database may help physicians further stratify risk and guide treatment decisions for their patients with prostate or bladder cancer.”
Veracyte also expects additional data regarding the Decipher Prostate test to be highlighted in the following general session presentation:
