HAYWARD, Calif., April 14, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Predicine, a global molecular insights company, announced today that it will present data from 12 studies and introduce PredicineALERT™, a next-generation Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) liquid biopsy assay at the 2023 AACR Conference on April 14-19, 2023. PredicineALERT™ provides a generalized approach to MRD testing – an assay without the requirement for personalized individual probe designs, but instead utilizes methylation profiling.
Key highlights of the PredicineALERT™ MRD assay include:
- Tumor-naive MRD detection without the need of personalization
- Fast turn-around-time (TAT) down to 6 days
- Sample input using as low as 2.5ng cell-free DNA
Predicine will also present twelve posters demonstrating the clinical utility and effectiveness of Predicine’s liquid biopsy platform across a multitude of indications, clinical trials, and profiling applications.

“Predicine is excited to introduce the next-generation MRD assay, PredicineALERT™,” said Shidong Jia, Founder and global CEO of Predicine. “The PredicineALERT assay represents a methylation-based approach to MRD testing without personalization, minimizing the operational burden from the current tumor-informed personalized MRD assay. In collaboration with our biopharma and academic partners, we are glad to see the analytical and clinical feasibility data utilizing cell-free DNA (cfDNA) to enable global clinical trials, CDx development, and patient testing.”
