Castle Biosciences Inc. announced that their combination of DecisionDx-UM and PRAME gene expression outperformed next-generation sequencing-based gene mutation analysis in predicting outcomes for uveal melanoma patients. The study, published in Nature Communications, showed improved metastasis-free and overall survival predictions. The enhanced performance is attributed to DecisionDx-UM's ability to measure gene activity from both tumor and surrounding immune cells, offering a comprehensive tumor microenvironment assessment.
