ANDOVER, Mass., March 27, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TellBio, Inc., a development-stage medical technology company focused on revolutionizing the detection of cancer metastasis through its unique and proprietary circulating tumor cell (CTC) technology, the TellDx CTC System, announces the publication of data that shows the promise of CTCs as a prognostic biomarker for patients with prostate cancer receiving novel therapies such as radium-223. The paper, “Circulating and Imaging Biomarkers of Radium-223 Response in Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer,” was published in JCO Precision Oncology (DOI 10.1200/PO.23.00230).

Key Points: 
  • The paper, “Circulating and Imaging Biomarkers of Radium-223 Response in Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer,” was published in JCO Precision Oncology (DOI 10.1200/PO.23.00230 ).
  • “Radium-223 is a valuable treatment option for patients with mCRPC, but better biomarkers are needed to identify patients most likely to benefit from therapy.
  • Additionally, imaging assessment in patients with bone-predominant disease has also been limited in patients receiving radium-223.
  • Upon controlling for known prognostic markers, PSA and tAP, the presence of baseline CTC AR-V7 expression was most predictive of OS among patients receiving radium-223.
