MENLO PARK, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Personalis, Inc., a leader in advanced genomics for cancer, today announced that the company will present at Advances in Immuno-Oncology Congress UK 2019 in London on May 21st at 11:00 AM BST.
The presentation, entitled “Advancing Precision Oncology Biomarker Discovery with a Multi-dimensional Immunogenomics Platform,” will introduce Personalis’ new universal cancer immunogenomics platform, ImmunoID NeXT™. In addition to an overview, the presentation will introduce preliminary data from an ongoing study in which this platform is being used to evaluate IO-related biomarkers and potential tumor escape mechanisms in a cohort of melanoma patients treated with anti-PD-1 therapy.
ImmunoID NeXT™ is the first platform to provide comprehensive analysis of both a tumor and its immune microenvironment from a single sample. The platform can be used to investigate the key tumor- and immune-related areas of cancer biology, consolidating multiple oncology biomarker assays into one. This maximizes the biological information that can be generated from a precious tumor specimen.
The presentation will be delivered by Robert Power, MS, Global Product Manager for Personalis.
