PALO ALTO, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Guardant Health, Inc. (Nasdaq: GH), a leading precision oncology company, announced today that new data from its portfolio of blood tests will be presented at the 2022 European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress, September 9-13 in Paris, France. Among the seven abstracts are an oral presentation and posters highlighting the use of Guardant Health’s blood tests and real-world evidence dataset to advance cancer therapy trials, predict and monitor patient response to therapy, and identify genomic mechanisms of acquired resistance to cancer therapy.
“The data from retrospective and real-world analyses show how comprehensive genomic profiling tests provide critical insights at every step of a patient’s treatment journey, and ultimately contribute to the development of more effective therapies and improved patient outcomes.”Tweet this
“We look forward to sharing new data at ESMO demonstrating the utility of our blood tests to increase the understanding of potential new biomarker targets and the mechanisms of therapy resistance in patients with cancer,” said Helmy Eltoukhy, Guardant Health co-CEO. “The data from retrospective and real-world analyses show how comprehensive genomic profiling tests provide critical insights at every step of a patient’s treatment journey, and ultimately contribute to the development of more effective therapies and improved patient outcomes.”
