Presented a study at the 27th Annual EAU Congress, and the 2012 Genitourinary Cancers Symposium, which concluded that the Company's Prolaris test demonstrated significant and unique prognostic ability in men who had undergone radical prostatectomy and accurately predicted their elevated risk for prostate cancer recurrence.
Presented a study at the 2012 ASCO Annual Meeting that demonstrated that the Company's lung cancer prognostic test significantly predicted cancer-specific death in early stage adenocarcinoma lung cancer patients.
Acquired an exclusive license to intellectual property covering the analysis of the RAD51C gene for risk of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer.
