The data highlight how functional information beyond genomics in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), including target expression, pathway activity, and cell-state changes associated with response and resistance to targeted therapies, can be revealed from only 1 mL of plasma using Precede Bio Insight.

"Patients with advanced NSCLC in whom MET is an important disease driver often require multiple lines of therapy, underscoring the need to better understand the biology driving response and resistance," said J. Carl Barrett, PhD, Chief Scientific Officer of Precede Biosciences. "For drug developers working to advance MET-targeted therapies, these data demonstrate the ability of our​ platform to provide a broad functional view of tumor biology from plasma that can help guide patient selection and rational therapeutic development strategies."
