“Activation of a cGAS-STING-mediated immune response predicts response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in early.” Dr. Stuart A. McIntosh
The Study led by Dr McIntosh and colleagues demonstrated that the DDIR assay could be used to identify a group of breast cancer patients which are more likely to benefit from a DNA damaging chemotherapy prior to surgery and have baseline activation of immune signaling. Furthermore, the team used a combination of transcriptome profiling, de novo discovery and the claraT report to demonstrate that patients with low baseline immune signaling or “cold” tumors are immune primed the through the use of this chemotherapy. Taken together these results could help refine the treatment of breast cancer patients and lead to better therapeutic outcomes.

“Genomic and Transcriptomic Profiling of Brain Metastases.” Dr. Analiz Rodriguez
The Study led by Dr Rodriguez and colleagues utilized claraT as a method to facilitate the molecular profiling of brain metastases. Together with other genomic and transcriptomic tools, claraT helped identify novel molecular subtypes and identified potential new drivers of brain cancer progression in parallel to novel drug candidates that may promote improved responses in these patients.
