DURHAM, N.C., Oct. 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GeneCentric, a company making precision medicine more precise by bringing gene expression biology to liquid biopsy, today announced that it will present at the American Society of Human Genetics (ASHG) 2026 Annual Meeting taking place in Montréal, Canada from October 20-24.
The oral presentation will highlight how GeneCentric’s ExpressCT™ liquid biopsy technology is able to obtain new clinically actionable signals from existing hybrid capture sequencing of cfDNA data. Its approach establishes a scalable, retrospective framework for reanalyzing archived liquid biopsy data to generate relevant biomarkers applicable across clinical trial and real-world evidence settings. GeneCentric’s liquid biopsy biomarkers can also aid in monitoring cancer drug resistance and treatment decisions. Additional information is included in the abstract available on the conference website.
