Comunicato Precedente
Comunicato Successivo
The annual meeting of the PRECEDE Consortium will bring together pancreatic cancer experts for two days of informational panels, partner updates, collaboration, and information sharing. Founded in 2020, the international PRECEDE Study is open to individuals with a family history of pancreatic cancer and/or those who carry genetic variants linked to development of the cancer. The PRECEDE Consortium's ambitious goal is to increase the five-year survival rate to 50% within the next 10 years through the most comprehensive observational longitudinal prospective cohort study of individuals at an elevated risk of developing pancreatic cancer. Researchers plan to enroll 10,000 patients; more than 7,000 are already participating.
"Our collaboration with PRECEDE has proven tremendously valuable. PRECEDE researchers provided hundreds of blood samples to support the current clinical validation study of our next-generation test," said Jeff Borcherding, Chief Executive Officer at Immunovia. He continued, "We are excited to update Consortium members and discuss ways we can collaborate to generate additional data on the accuracy and clinical use of our test. It's energizing to partner with a group that is so passionate about improving pancreatic cancer survival through early detection."
As communicated previously, Immunovia expects to complete the clinical validation study in December 2024 in preparation for launching its next-generation test for early detection of pancreatic cancer later in 2025.
