GeneSight® Shown to Statistically Significantly Improve Generalized Anxiety Disorder Treatment Response and Decrease Benzodi...
Source: GlobeNewswire Inc.
Assurex Health, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Myriad Genetics, Inc. (NASDAQ:MYGN), today announced new positive results for the GeneSight® test in patients with Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD). The study found that GeneSight guided treatment statistically significantly improved treatment response in patients with GAD and decreased the use of benzodiazepines which have potential for abuse and dependence. The data were presented at the 25th World Congress of Psychiatric Genetics meeting in Orlando, Fla with co-investigators from Toronto’s Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH).
“Anxiety is one of the most common mental health disorders, affecting 60 million Americans or three times the number of people with depression,” said Bryan Dechairo, Ph.D., executive vice president of Clinical Development, Myriad Genetics. “This new study provides strong evidence that the GeneSight test can help physicians personalize treatment for patients with anxiety, leading to more effective treatment and a beneficial reduction in benzodiazepine use.”
This study evaluated data from two separate studies including: CAMH’s Individualized Medicine: Pharmacogenetic Assessment and Clinical Treatment (IMPACT) study, where 315 patients with anxiety disorders were assessed for symptom severity using the GAD-7 questionnaire; and the Medco dataset in which 662 patients who were prescribed at least one benzodiazepine six months pretesting and were followed 12 months post-testing.
The results of the IMPACT study show that medication decisions that were congruent with the GeneSight test results can help guide the treatment of GAD and resulted in a statistically-significant improvement in anxiety symptom severity (p=0.03). The Medco data showed that 18 percent of patients originally taking at least one benzodiazepine ceased the use of benzodiazepines after testing with GeneSight with a significant decrease in benzodiazepine drug counts and refills (p<0.001). The IMPACT study was funded in part by Ontario’s Ministry of Research and Innovation.

About Anxiety
Anxiety affects one in five people in the United States and one in nine people worldwide and is a leading cause of disability. Anxiety increases the risk for other conditions including depression and substance abuse. Treatment for anxiety includes psychological interventions and pharmacologic therapy. Antidepressants are considered the first line in the treatment of anxiety and benzodiazepines are considered second or third line due to the potential for abuse and dependency.
About GeneSight®
GeneSight is a laboratory-developed pharmacogenomic test that uses cutting edge technology to measure and analyze clinically important genomic variants in the treatment of psychiatric disorders. The results of the GeneSight report can help a clinician understand the way a patient’s unique genomic makeup may affect certain psychiatric drugs. The analysis is based on pharmacogenomics, the study of genomic factors that influence an individual’s response to drug treatments, manufacturers’ FDA approved drug labels, peer reviewed scientific and clinical publications, and proven drug pharmacology. Quick turnaround time, combined with a customized report of the patient’s genomic makeup, clinical experience, and other factors can provide information to help a physician make personalized drug treatment choices for each patient.

Crescendo Bioscience, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Myriad Genetics, Inc. (NASDAQ:MYGN), today announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) has issued United States Patent No. 9,200,324. The patent, which is expected to expire in 2031, provides intellectual property protection for Crescendo Bioscience's Vectra® DA testing.

The twelve biomarkers measured by Vectra DA are: VCAM-1, EGF, VEGF-A, IL-6, TNF-RI, MMP-1, MMP-3, YKL-40, leptin, resistin, SAA and CRP.
The recently issued patent is co-assigned to Crescendo and the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation and is the first patent issued relating to Vectra DA. Crescendo will continue to pursue additional patent applications, which if issued, should expand the scope of intellectual property protection for Vectra DA.
"Crescendo's first patent for Vectra DA is significant because it validates the innovation required to bring to market the only objective multi-biomarker test for assessing RA disease activity," said Bernie Tobin, president, Crescendo Bioscience. "The PTO's decision comes at a critical time as we enter the golden era of personalized medicine. In order for personalized medicine to become a reality, strong intellectual property protection is essential because it provides research-based companies like Crescendo with incentives to continue to invest in research and development."

7:04AM Myriad Genetics: BRCA patent owners and Gene by Gene resolve patent suit; Gene by Gene will cease selling or marketing clinical diagnostic tests within N. America that include analysis of the BRCA1 and/or BRCA2 genes as a standalone test or in conjunction with gene panels (MYGN) 30.57 :
Gene by Gene and Myriad Genetics, the University of Utah Research Foundation, HSC Research and Development Limited Partnership, Endorecherche, and the Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania have reached an agreement to settle the patent infringement lawsuit between them regarding BRCA testing.
Under the agreement and effective immediately, Gene by Gene will cease selling or marketing clinical diagnostic tests within North America that include analysis of the BRCA1 and/or BRCA2 genes as a standalone test or in conjunction with gene panels, but Gene by Gene will continue to offer such tests outside of North America. The Parties have also agreed that Gene by Gene may continue to offer its whole genome and exome products and services, which include the BRCA genes, as well as Gene by Gene's custom array products that test variants for inherited Mendelian disorders, including variants for BRCA1 and BRCA2, worldwide.
The agreement will continue until the earlier of Feb 12, 2016 or the last-to-expire valid patent claim in any of the BRCA patents involved in the case. In return, the Patent Owners have agreed to dismiss the patent infringement case against Gene by Gene without prejudice.
This settlement effectively ends the suit that was filed July 10, 2013, in which the Patent Owners alleged that the testing process employed by Gene by Gene infringes certain claims in patents owned by the Patent Owners covering synthetic DNA and methods-of-use related to the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes.

Myriad's HRD(TM) Test Significantly Predicts Response to Cisplatin Treatment in Patients With Triple Negative Breast Cancer i...

Intraday Stock Chart
Today : Saturday 14 December 2013

Myriad Genetics, Inc. (Nasdaq:MYGN) today presented clinical data at the 2013 San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium that showed the Myriad's HRD (homologous recombination deficiency) test was significantly associated with cisplatin response in patients with triple negative breast cancer.
In this research study, Myriad's HRD test provided optimal prediction of platinum response in patients with triple negative disease (p=0.0003). The HRD score predicted all of the patients that experienced a complete response after pre-surgical treatment with platinum with a sensitivity of 100 percent. Furthermore, these results showed that the HRD score not only predicted drug response in triple negative patients but the HRD score also was generalizable across all breast cancer subtypes.
"Often tumors with high rates of double-strand DNA repair deficiency are especially difficult to treat," said Jerry Lanchbury, Ph.D., Chief Scientific Officer of Myriad Genetics. "It is difficult to know or assess the status of all DNA repair mechanisms, so the HRD test measures the effect by assessing the amount of DNA damage. Our data demonstrate that Myriad's HRD test has the capacity to precisely target DNA damaging therapy to the patients who are most likely to respond. The HRD test has the potential to support the targeted use of PARPs and other drugs in tumors that exhibit DNA repair scars."
This is the second research study to show that Myriad's HRD test predicts drug response to platinum therapy in triple-negative breast cancer patients. In a prior study, 70 percent of patients with an HRD score =10 responded to the carboplatin-based treatment, compared to only 20 percent of patients with an HRD score < 10 (p=0.0001). Using the HRD test instead of BRCA status identified more than three times as many patients as likely responders.
Myriad has announced two commercial collaborations to further develop the HRD test. In March, the Company announced it is conducting HRD testing on patients enrolled in PharmaMar's Phase 2 study of PM1183. In Nov. 2013, Myriad announced a collaboration with BioMarin that will use the HRD test to identify tumor types that may be sensitive to BioMarin's investigational product candidate, BMN-673. The Company also has two other undisclosed collaborations to evaluate HRD as a companion diagnostic.
About Myriad's HRD Test
Myriad's proprietary HRD test detects when a tumor has lost the ability to repair double-stranded DNA breaks resulting in increased susceptibility to DNA-damaging drugs. Myriad's HRD test includes three DNA-based measures of homologous recombination deficiency including: whole genome tumor loss of heterozygosity profiles (HRD-LOH), telomeric allelic imbalance (HRD-TAI) and large-scale state transitions (HRD-LST). All three scores are highly correlated with defects in BRCA1/2 and are associated with sensitivity to platinum agents. High HRD scores are prevalent in all breast cancer subtypes and most other major cancers. It is estimated that 490,000 people in the United States who are diagnosed with cancers annually are candidates for HRD testing with the view to recommend treatment with DNA-damaging agents such as platinum and PARP inhibitors.

Myriad Genetics, Inc. (Nasdaq:MYGN) today presented clinical data at the 2013 San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium that showed the myRisk Hereditary Cancer test found 51 percent more patients with a higher risk of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer than did testing for the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes alone. myRisk is a new diagnostic test that uses next-generation sequencing technology to evaluate 25 genes associated with eight major hereditary cancers including: breast, colorectal, ovarian, endometrial, pancreatic, prostate, gastric and melanoma.
This large prospective clinical validation study measured mutations in 25 cancer-causing genes among patients who were referred for BRCA1/2 testing. Among the 1,951 patients evaluated, 275 patients tested positive for a deleterious mutation with the myRisk test. Testing only for the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes found only 182 of the mutation carriers, representing a 51 percent increase in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer mutation detection for the myRisk test. In this study, the accuracy of the myRisk test was 99.99 percent.
myRisk Hereditary Cancer has now been validated in approximately 5,000 patients in clinical studies. Today's results build on recently presented data that showed the myRisk test improved the detection of mutations in patients referred for hereditary colon cancer testing by 61 percent and with a 99.99 percent accuracy, which is equal to the gold standard Sanger DNA sequencing.
"Hereditary cancers are caused by mutations in many different genes and new genes linked to cancer have been recently identified. Testing only for one hereditary cancer syndrome may lead to missed mutations," said Richard J. Wenstrup, M.D., chief medical officer of Myriad. "The myRisk test evaluates 25 clinically actionable genes and significantly improves our ability to identify people at higher risk for hereditary cancer, which may lead to prevention or early detection with the ability to reduce cancer incidence and mortality."
The myRisk Hereditary Cancer test includes only clinically actionable genes. The majority of genes in the panel are reflected in the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines and the clinical relevance of all 25 genes is well characterized in the peer-reviewed medical literature. Additionally, all genes in the myRisk panel have a high to moderately-high penetrance or lifetime risk of cancer for patients.
