Oncocyte Corporation announced that it will present a scientific poster highlighting the broad adoption and real-world clinical utility of its DetermaRx™ test for early-stage lung cancer at the IASLC 2020 World Conference on Lung Cancer (#WCLC20), hosted by the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer, taking place virtually on January 28-31, 2021. DetermaRx is the company’s treatment stratification test to identify patients with Stage I and IIA non-squamous NSCLC who may benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy. The commercially available test is Medicare-reimbursed, and has been extensively validated to stratify risk and predict treatment benefit in early-stage non-squamous NSCLC. These data, which will be presented by Dr. Doug Harrington, Medical Director, and Sara Riordan, Genetic Counselor and Senior Director of Medical Education for Oncocyte, are based on an analysis of 250 cases for which treating physicians across 39 academic and community hospitals ordered the DetermaRx test for clinical use. These new findings reinforce previously published data showing the DetermaRx test outperforms standard clinical factors that are used to identify and treat patients at high risk of recurrence following surgery. Previously published studies have shown that these patients have a significant improvement in survival when treated with adjuvant chemotherapy—92% compared with 49%. DetermaRx is being ordered by thoracic surgeons as well as oncologists, for testing all stages of cancer for which it is CMS approved, including Stage I and Stage IIA patients, indicating that physicians see broad utility in the test. Other highlights of the new data: 19% of patients having none of the high-risk clinical features in NCCN guidelines were re-classified as high/intermediate risk by DetermaRx; One out of four of earliest stage lung cancer patients (Stage IA) were classified as intermediate- or high-risk by the DetermaRx test. These patients were previously not believed to be candidates for adjuvant chemotherapy treatment although data suggests about 30% will experience a recurrence. This represents a new group of patients for whom biomarker testing is being ordered, given clinical utility; Multi-center real-world data reinforces a single-center study demonstrating that the test reclassifies NCCN clinical feature-based risk, underscoring the potential clinical utility of DetermaRx in a broad U.S. population.
