Rapid Biopsy Approach Shortens Time Required to Diagnose HPV-linked Head and Neck Cancers
A non-invasive, liquid biopsy approach for the diagnosis of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas caused by human papilloma virus (HPV+HNSCC) demonstrated improved accuracy, reduced cost, and a shorter time to diagnosis compared to the current clinical workup and could become the method of choice in the future.

Targeted RNA-Sequencing Panel Detects Gene Fusions in Solid Tumors
Increasingly, rearrangements resulting in gene fusions have been revealed in multiple tumor types across diverse organ systems. These gene fusions can drive tumorigenesis by altering gene expression and activity. Timely and reliable detection of fusions provides useful information to the pathologist and clinical team.

Biomarker Predicts Potential Benefit of Checkpoint Inhibitor Therapy for Brain Cancer Patients
A phosphorylated form of ERK (extracellular signal-regulated kinase) protein has been identified as a biomarker that may be used to predict which brain cancer patients might benefit from checkpoint inhibitor therapy. More...06 Dec 2021
Same Day Test Identifies Secondary Infections in COVID-19 Patients
The intensive care unit (ICU) is a dynamic environment with frequent staff-patient contact for invasive monitoring, interventions and personal care that together introduce the risk of secondary or nosocomial infection. When critically ill patients are cared for in the ICU, doctors may take deep samples from their lungs. More...02 Dec 2021
