IRVING, Texas, Sept. 19, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Caris Life Sciences®, a leading innovator in molecular science focused on fulfilling the promise of precision medicine, announced today that it will present seven abstracts describing new research at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress 2019, September 27 to October 1, in Barcelona, Spain.

Key data to be presented at ESMO include the first study to address transcriptomic therapeutic biomarkers in metastatic Leydig cell tumor, an extremely rare testicular cancer with limited therapeutic options, and an analysis of BRAF inhibitors in BRAFV600E colorectal cancer and BRAFV600E melanoma, including resistance mechanisms as well as molecular and biological differences between the tumor types that may explain differential clinical responses.

"Our research at ESMO 2019 demonstrates how Caris' innovative technology is helping the oncology community gain a greater understanding of tumor biology and advance science to help determine optimal treatment approaches," said Michael Korn, M.D., Chief Medical Officer at Caris Life Sciences. "As the management of cancer continues to rapidly evolve, our ongoing research into therapy biomarkers is playing a key role in guiding personalized treatment decisions that hold the potential to transform care for patients living with this debilitating disease."

In addition to the presentations, Caris will exhibit at booth #407 from September 27 through September 30 during regular exhibit hours. Company executives will also be available for one-on-one meetings during the Congress.

Caris scientists and collaborators, including those from the Caris-led Precision Oncology Alliance™, will present research and associated findings from seven studies across a broad range of tumor types, including gastric, cervical, colorectal, testicular, as well as melanoma cancers and Merkel cell carcinoma, a rare type of skin cancer. Research to be presented at ESMO includes:
