(NASDAQ: ANIX), a biotechnology company focused on using the body’s immune system to fight cancer, reported that it will present data from its ongoing studies in breast cancer utilizing Cchek, Anixa’s artificial intelligence (AI) driven early cancer detection technology, at the AACR (Free AACR Whitepaper) Special Conference on Tumor Immunology and Immunotherapy (Press release, Anixa Biosciences, NOV 15, 2018, View Source [SID1234531342]). The conference is designed to integrate multidisciplinary facets of basic cancer immunology and immunotherapy to broaden the understanding of ways to harness the immune system to treat cancer. The conference will be held November 27–30, 2018 in Miami Beach, Florida and will be attended by world-renowned oncologists and scientists who will offer new insights on systems biology, checkpoints, combination therapies, and molecular targets, all in the pursuit of finding new ways to manipulate the tumor immune microenvironment and creating better treatments. To receive a copy of the presentation, please email your request to AACR (Free AACR Whitepaper)[email protected] starting November 30, 2018 and include your name, title, and contact information.

"We are pleased to make our presentation titled, Combining the immunophenotyping of MDSCs and lymphocytes with artificial intelligence (AI) to predict early stage breast cancer, at the AACR (Free AACR Whitepaper) Tumor Immunology and Immunotherapy conference. This data is focused on using our Cchek technology to detect breast cancer in its early stages. The majority of screening technologies currently used for breast cancer detection, such as mammography, have the ability to detect later stage breast malignancies rather successfully but have shown difficulty with earlier stages," stated Dr. Amit Kumar, President and CEO of Anixa Biosciences. "As we have previously announced, our initial commercial focus is on a prostate cancer test for which we will be meeting with the USFDA on December 17, 2018. We recently presented our latest prostate cancer data at the 33rd Annual Meeting of The Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) (Free SITC Whitepaper), and we look forward to now present our latest breast cancer data at this AACR (Free AACR Whitepaper) special conference," added Dr. Kumar.
