GENOMIC HEALTH, INC. REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Sept. 28, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Genomic Health, Inc. (Nasdaq: GHDX) today announced that the company will present results from nine studies at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) 2016 Congress, which will take place October 7-11 at the Bella Center in Copenhagen, Denmark. The results will include:
-- Analytical validation study results for the recently launched Oncotype
SEQ(TM) Liquid Select test. Oncotype SEQ is the first non-invasive
liquid biopsy test that the company is delivering through its Oncotype
IQ(TM) Genomic Intelligence Platform.
-- Two presentations highlighting updated prospective outcomes from a large
population-based observational study based on the Surveillance,
Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) program of the National Cancer
Institute (NCI). The primary SEER Registry study results, published in
Nature Partner Journals Breast Cancer, demonstrated that the Oncotype
DX(®) Breast Recurrence Score(TM) accurately predicted prospective
patient outcomes in more than 44,500 patients, including those with
node-negative and node-positive breast cancer. The updated results to be
presented at ESMO will include an additional year of patient data and an
additional year of follow-up for patients included in the original
study.
-- New prospective outcomes data on the Oncotype DX Breast Recurrence Score
from a multi-center study in node-positive disease from Clalit Health
Services, the largest health maintenance organization in Israel.
-- Five international studies demonstrating the value of the Oncotype DX
Breast Recurrence Score on treatment decisions in Canada, the Czech
Republic, Italy and Spain. These studies include new prospective
clinical utility evidence for node-positive disease and results on the
clinical impact of Oncotype DX beyond immunohistochemistry for Ki-67.
