Veracyte Announces Seven Abstracts to Be Presented at ESMO Congress 2022

August 31, 2022

New data support continued expansion of the company’s tests, including determining treatment prognosis in men with advanced prostate cancer

SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 31, 2022-- Veracyte, Inc. (Nasdaq: VCYT) announced today that seven abstracts showcasing the company’s genomic tests for prostate (Decipher) and breast (Prosigna) cancers will be presented at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress 2022, taking place September 9-13, 2022, in Paris.

“The abstracts we’ll share at ESMO 2022 reinforce the value our genomic tests bring to physicians diagnosing and treating cancer patients,” said Marc Stapley, Veracyte’s chief executive officer. “We are particularly excited about new data from a post-hoc analysis that evaluated the clinical performance of our Decipher Prostate test in one arm of the large, multi-center, randomized STAMPEDE trial. We believe these data may help expand the Decipher test’s availability to advanced prostate cancer patients in the United States, and also support our plans to offer the Decipher Prostate test as an IVD on the nCounter Analysis System for use outside of the United States where laboratories can perform it locally.”

Following are details of the abstracts that will be shared as part of the ESMO 2022 Congress:
