A full presentation of the results will take place at the 34th EORTC/AACR/NCI symposium in Barcelona (26-28 October 2022). The study was funded by the Medical Research Council and will also be published in a peer-reviewed journal in due course.

"We are very pleased to see a new molecule and an innovative mode of action showing significant results in brain cancer metastases," said Radiopharm’s CEO & Managing Director Riccardo Canevari.

"The team at Imperial College London, led by Professor Eric Aboagye, did a tremendous job. F-18 Pivalate and its potential therapeutic variations, currently under development, represent a promising theranostic approach to target brain metastases and potentially other brain tumours.

"These positive and encouraging results will inform F-18 Pivalate accelerated future development and we are looking forward to starting conversations with medical experts and regulatory agencies."

Professor Aboagye, from Imperial College London and the lead inventor of 18-F Pivalate, added: "This technology, when compared to the current clinical standard in PET imaging, has showed superior imaging performance in several cancers. We’re very pleased to see this interim data further confirms its potential."

Radiopharm acquired an exclusive worldwide licence for the Pivalate platform technology from Cancer Research Technology Limited and Imperial College London, and has a Sponsored Research Agreement on new analogues with Professor Aboagye.

On October 18, 2022 GE Healthcare and Tribun Health reported that they have entered a collaboration with the intent to provide digital pathology departmental solutions that give healthcare providers a more holistic view of patient records (Press release, GE Healthcare, OCT 18, 2022, View Source [SID1234622154]). The alliance intends to bring a data management solution by interfacing Tribun’s Health Suite data into GE Healthcare’s solution, such as GE Healthcare’s vendor neutral archive (VNA), Edison Datalogue. It is expected to focus on making digital pathology images and results an integrated part of the imaging patient record within the VNA; the availability of more accurate pathology reports in less time, created with the assistance of artificial intelligence (AI) provided by Tribun’s Health Suite; and fostering collaboration among pathologists and clinicians through availability of data in a consolidated location. Having pathology information is critical, especially in oncology, to enable collaboration, while improving the speed of diagnosis.

Lowering the Barrier for In-House NGS Testing for POLs

Physician groups are eager to expand their in-house testing modalities to include advanced molecular testing. However, challenges such as clinical validation of NGS assays, technical assessments, overhead costs for additional headcount, and navigating the dynamic insurance reimbursement environment can pose significant challenges to deploying NGS in clinical practice.

Combining Pierian’s rich expertise in clinical next generation sequencing and P4’s long history of establishing POLs helps to reduce those barriers. Joint customers of Pierian and P4 will have access to several enabling services such as technical assessment consultation, enhanced validation services, and clinical sample procurement to support workflow design and implementation of NGS. As a result, the POLs will be ready for operation swiftly and efficiently enabling their physicians to provide the most efficacious therapies available for their patients.

"Our collaboration with P4 will help more physician-owned laboratories internalize clinical NGS, increasing patient access to testing and actionable results," states Lindsay Mateo, Chief Business Officer at Pierian. "We are thrilled to expand our relationship with P4 as they are an industry leader that continues to positively impact the clinician experience and patient outcomes."

Brett Reilly, Chief Commercial Officer at P4 said, "Being able to partner with Pierian allows us to offer our clients access to the latest technology and an extensive knowledgebase of clinically relevant data. Offering NGS testing and support services will empower our clients to deliver personalized therapy through more precise treatment pathways. This leads to better patient care and improved outcomes for patients with these disease states."
