The company will present two posters highlighting how MammaPrint<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> (MP) + BluePrint<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> (BP) provide biological insights into treatment response and help further refine therapeutic decision-making for patients with early-stage breast cancer (EBC).<\/p><p>\n<b>Poster #46 | June 1, 1:30 p.m. \u2013 4:30 p.m. CDT | Presenter: Steven Isakoff<\/b><\/p><p>\n<i>Association of the 70-gene assay and homologous recombination deficiency in patients with High Risk 2 breast cancers<\/i><\/p><p>\nThis real-world analysis of 1,298 patients from the FLEX study evaluated whether MP + BP classifications are associated with homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) in hormone receptor positive, HER2-negative (HR+HER2-) EBC. A 228-gene HRD signature and a refined 26-gene panel were used to assess HRD-related biology indicative of impaired DNA repair.<\/p><ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li>\nBoth signatures showed that MP High Risk 2 (H2) tumors demonstrated significantly higher HRD scores than High Risk 1 (H1) tumors (both p&lt;0.001).<\/li>\n<li>\nAmong Luminal tumors, Luminal H2 tumors had significantly higher HRD scores than Luminal H1 tumors across both HRD signatures (both p&lt;0.001).<\/li>\n<li>\nBasal tumors demonstrated higher HRD scores than Luminal tumors within both H1 and H2 groups (all p\u22640.002), with Basal H2 tumors showing the highest overall HRD levels.<\/li>\n<\/ul><p>\n\u201cThese findings provide a biological rationale for the anthracycline chemotherapy benefit observed in patients with MammaPrint High Risk 2 tumors,\" said Steven Isakoff, M.D., Ph.D., Medical Oncologist and Clinical Director, Breast Oncology Program, Mass General Brigham Cancer Institute. \u201cFollowing the recent NCCN Guidelines update recognizing MammaPrint as the only genomic test to personalize the use of anthracycline-based regimens in HR+HER2- early-stage breast cancer, the data further validate the assay\u2019s ability to stratify risk and guide treatment selection.\"<\/p><p>\n<b>Poster #106 | June 1, 1:30 p.m. \u2013 4:30 p.m. CDT | Presenter: David Page<\/b><\/p><p>\n<i>Integration of molecular subtyping and immune profiling to predict pathologic complete response in HER2+ breast cancer treated with neoadjuvant dual HER2 therapy<\/i><\/p><p>\nThis study evaluates whether combining BP molecular subtyping with the ImPrint immune signature could accurately predict outcomes (pathologic complete response [pCR]) in HER2-positive (HER2+) EBC treated with neoadjuvant dual HER2-targeted therapy. pCR rates were assessed in a cohort of 252 patients, following treatment with neoadjuvant chemotherapy in combination with trastuzumab and pertuzumab.<\/p><ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li>\nIn the HR+HER2+ subgroup, 52% of tumors were further classified by BP as non-HER2 subtypes (Luminal A 6%, Luminal B 44%, Basal 2%), highlighting the genomic diversity within clinically HER2+ disease.<\/li>\n<li>\nThe highest pCR rates were observed in tumors classified as BP-HER2\/ImPrint+, indicating that patients whose tumors were genomically HER2-type and immune-active derived the greatest benefit from neoadjuvant therapy.<\/li>\n<li>\nIn multivariate analysis, BP subtype and ImPrint status independently predicted pCR in HR+HER2+ disease, after controlling for nodal status and tumor size. The integration of molecular subtyping by BP and immune profiling by ImPrint maximized prediction of pCR, particularly in the HR+HER2+ subgroup.<\/li>\n<\/ul><p>\n\u201cThese findings demonstrate how integrating molecular subtyping with immune profiling may improve our ability to predict response to neoadjuvant therapy in HER2-positive early-stage breast cancer and may be hypothesis-generating for chemotherapy de-escalation studies,\u201d said William Audeh, M.D., Chief Medical Officer of Agendia. \u201cBoth the HRD and HER2+ studies highlight the utility of MammaPrint and BluePrint and emerging signatures for identifying clinically relevant breast cancer biology. Drawing on insights from the FLEX Study, which captures real-world treatment patterns as they evolve, we can address challenging clinical questions in a timely and relevant manner.\u201d<\/p><p>\nImPrint was developed to be used in the clinic to predict the likelihood of patients responding to immunotherapies by looking at the biology of the patient\u2019s tumor. Agendia currently holds a U.S. Food and Drug Administration Investigational Device Exempt status for the ImPrint signature, allowing for its use in the I-SPY2 trial and for other ongoing research with collaborators.<\/p><p>\n<b>About Agendia<\/b><\/p><p>\n<a  href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fagendia.com%2F&amp;esheet=54539403&amp;newsitemid=20260521585048&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Agendia&amp;index=1&amp;md5=54136e5e14a524de53c56c52f894f807\" rel=\"nofollow\" shape=\"rect\">Agendia<\/a> is a global leader in precision oncology focused on <a  href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fagendia.com%2Fbreast-cancer-symptoms-early-signs%2F&amp;esheet=54539403&amp;newsitemid=20260521585048&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=early-stage+breast+cancer&amp;index=2&amp;md5=ecdcb8d0730a00725a8e596b409ddc62\" rel=\"nofollow\" shape=\"rect\">early-stage breast cancer<\/a>.
